Grace Campbell - Alastair Campbell

Don't hold back. 😂

I dont know anything about her other than this video and the one with her mum. Perhaps she has rewarding work outwith what she shares publically.

She does seem a bit lost, tbh. What is the point of these inteminable interviews with her own mum and dad? Attention?

Good job money can solve everything, then!

Charlie spent £40k on transplants to counter male pattern baldness.

Unfortunately, Grace won’t change her mind, because people don’t, or only very rarely,change their mind when they’re criticised. It will simply confirm her view that she’s right and her critics are blind, ignorant and all the rest of it.

Alistair Campbell is immensely proud of his daughter and, although I have very mixed views about him, I feel great empathy towards a parent who loves their child so much and is so proud of her. No doubt, in part, because I never had this, myself.

The result, though, is that he suspends his critical faculties. I suspect that Grace has been indulged throughout her childhood and has the idea that whatever ever comes into her head is correct, noble right and to be admired.

There was a period when Rory Stewart started to counter and challenge Alistair Campbell’s ideas, but he doesn’t seem to do that so much anymore. They don’t have genuine discussions. I’m a subscriber to the podcast but will not renew and I haven’t listened for a very long time now.

She's the freak, the tedious, vacuous, talentless, chronically unfunny, attention seeking, nepotistic and frankly rather plain little gobshite. I could not bear her even before I saw this.

Perhaps she mistook laughing at for laughing with.

He seems to have made a trans identity his entire 'career'.

Isn't that true of all of them?

Nah, my husband just wants to pee too. And doesn't look at haircuts, as he's quite sensitive about his not-too-abundant hair.

I looked Charlie up. He seems to have made a trans identity his entire 'career'.

Does Grace have a job? Is that podcast a job? Does she live at home. She acts more like a schoolgirl teenager having a giggle with another teenager than a grown adult of 32. Sad that an educated woman born of two such bright people would dismiss the brave women who fought for all women to the Supreme Court in such denigrating language based on their looks. Crucially she doesn’t engage in why those women were so brave.

As for Charlie, such a misogynist, and so coarse. But I’m not expecting anything else from him.

Craggs looks like the poor man's Robert Smith but not as pretty. Has a cheek to criticise women's appearance as he really doesn't have anything else.
The game's up matey.
These two are so immature and haven't done their research. Freedom of speech and all that though. Let 'em speak

Well they can give themselves a good pat on the back for contributing such a delightful, warm, empathetic daughter to the human race 🙄

I wonder if they regret spending thousands and thousands on her private school education where she clearly wasn’t taught critical thinking

I used to listen to TRIP and quite enjoy it. Then there were a couple of 'scales falling from eyes' episodes for me, the one talking about FWS and another where they were discussing the politics of another country that I coincidentally happened to know quite a bit about having done work there for many years. In both instances it was so immediately obvious to me that they hadnt done their homework, there were gaping holes in their understanding of the subject, that I suddenly realised I may as well have been listening to a couple of guys in the pub set the world to rights after a few beers.

Yes, AC & Rory made very recent comments that's FWS were toxic for celebrating their "win" and it's known he is influenced by his daughter.

They have been invited to have FWS on TRIP to discuss their views but seemingly they won't go there. I avoid TRIP due to AC views but recently caught a few episodes regarding the Iran war. I now feel "tarnished" for listening to them.

They don't want kindness to the Trans community as they are insistent that men are women and anyone who says otherwise are toxic.

It obvious he is brain washed by his daughter which must highlight his critical thinking abilities. Scary to think he influenced UK government policy for so many years.

We all care to an extent about how we look and that's normal. We all judge ourselves and each other all the time. Also normal.

But comments made as these are are in this context are being used purely as weapons to try to shame and control.

There's also nothing objectively wrong with how the FWS women look. They're perfectly regular middle aged women.

They are not attempting to position themselves for the male gaze however. And there in lies the problem for handmaids like Grace.

I do think that comments on looks are rarely objective, and often actually reflect people's approval or disapproval.

They are generally used as tools to control, especially women and girls.

Tbh its not a rebuke, its an attempt to point out the dynamics and the overarching and larger problems.

A sexist society is the water we swim in, its hard to see past it.

I accept your rebuke (and was expecting someone to say something similar) and largely agree. The beauty standards people try to impose are ridiculous. I'd rather, if we're judging people, follow MLK and do it on the basis of their character not how much we enjoy looking at them. I do think that comments on looks are rarely objective, and often actually reflect people's approval or disapproval.

Has anybody listened to their recent TRIP Leading interview with TW US congresswoman (nope, not going to split hairs) Sarah McBride? (I haven't yet, but I think I probably ought to, because my irritation at AC and RS is not sufficient reason not to listen to it.)

I'm wondering if this is the reason the video of Grace Campbell has got new attention.

The interview with her mother is quite revealing. They talk about how Grace 'had to have a pony' and how that makes her sound spoilt.

Grace Campbell (comedian daughter of Alistair) and trans activist trans woman Charlie Craggs mocked and ridiculed women protesting outside the Uk supreme court who were advocating for the sex based rights of women/girls under the EA21010 relating to the forscotswomen legal case.
They ridiculed the womens appearance ...old, ugly, no fashion sense ,bad hair even ridiculed their public hair.
They ridiculed the womens safety concerns in relation to Single sex spaces by saying they were unattractive ,so safe from the risk of males like Charlie in their spaces.
The "unfuckable crone to ugly to get SA or raped" argument for allowing males access to female spaces.
Absolute misogyny at it finest and they expected to be cheered from the rafters.
They were not.
How Grace can justify to herself that women and girls that the male Charlie Craggs finds ugly and unattractive should not be allowed their legal rights to some single sex spaces beggars belief.

As for Grace, god help us. If she were 17 I'd have a tiny bit of sympathy, but she's 32, immensely privileged and still playing the 'mean girl' card against working class nurses, whose lives she hasn't the faintest understanding of.

Clueless little dipshit.

I can't listen to TRIP any more. The misogyny of this pair disgust me.

I'm finding left-leaning misogynists almost more repulsive than their right wing equivalents these days.

At least the right wing idiots are straightforward in their intentions. These left leaning men are incel-adjacent while claiming to be 'progessive'. Arseholes.

Again, how attractive any woman is judged to look in this situation is a distraction. A male perspective on whether a woman is attractive or not is not actually helpful or desirable.

The suggestion that there is an objective metric assessment to be made on a woman's attractiveness, specifically to the male gaze, is the problem.

There is plenty to be said on Grace's words and actions, and how these have apparently influenced her father.
