You have to hand it to this one, he keeps on digging. Might hit Australia soon, I think he'd prefer it there.

Ah no she directly compares herself to Churchill & says:

The thing is,
@IndiaWilloughby
, I really do enjoy cigars, whisky and facing down totalitarians, so by the same arguments that make you a woman, I am indeed Winston Churchill.

by the same arguments that make you a woman

Wouldn't that mean she identifies as W Churchill? Just for a moment, perhaps.

Shouldn't you and India celebrate her stated identity? Everyone knows who they are inside, right?!

Ummm, because there are no arguments that make IW a woman, so...

You must of missed that there was a fair amount of humorous commentary of Rowling a billionaire smoking a cigar on a super yacht quoting Churchill's

"I love it when a plan comes together".

JKR was certainly onto something about elites.

You said this. you claimed that Churchill said the plan quotation.

He did not. None of your deflections will make your statement true.

You've had this explained once already. Was it too tricky to understand?

Show quote history

Apparently the grandiose comparison of "facing down totalitarians" a la Churchill & the Nazis was somehow lost in translation here. 😂

Oh dear. The comparison is via the cigars, whisky etc.

You said it related to the statement re a plan coming together.

Which was the A Team.

I'm still cackling at the ahistorical ignorance of anyone who believed the twat that told her Winston Churchill ever would have said "I love it when a plan comes together" 😂

What he might have said? A reference to Robbie Burns, followed by something about national pride, British stoicism and superior intelligence. He may have celebrated a plan brilliant in its conception and meticulous in its execution.

Not emotional shorthand! Do you never think to question what your ideological pundits tell you?

murasaki · 21/10/2026 22:56

I swear the standard of the drive by TRAs gets worse by the day.

Shortpoet · 21/10/2026 22:56

I read this essay while I was waiting in audience to see Nish Kumar this evening.

Predictably he did a bit in second half about his JKR has lost her marbles and made the world worse by supporting the Supreme Court ruling. He referenced the photo with the cigar too.

All I could think was there is no way he will read that essay and see the thought and compassion in it. He’s made up his mind about which side is right and won’t listen to anything else. He spoke in another section about progressives needing to be a broad church and welcoming diversity of ideas. But there’s no way he will engage with that essay and what she really thinks and why.

Anyway JKR is my queen. Excellent update to her essay. Bravo to her xxx

So clearly the on the ground reality doesn't reflect polls.

Or understands that women have rights? And that children should be safeguarded.

There a manifesto?? Is this held in the same place as the far right money? Any clues, could do with a top up on my far right stipends?

Oh mate. You need to get out more.
The general public are completely on her side - having watched in horror as children were targeted & men and women bullied, intimidated and silenced.

The gig is up for queer theorists / trans extremists. Time to move on and recognise that others have rights.

Go well.

I don’t read ‘rage’ in her words 🙂

But of course those that feel ‘unsafe’ at the mere mention of JKR or Harry Potter are probably all suffering from the effects of the vapours right now.
