Burchill. I don’t agree with a lot of what she says, but she’s bang on with this. And I’m not aware of her making disabilist ‘jokes’ to sell shitty books.

BringMeTea · 06/06/2021 14:39

Burchill. Obviously.

I used to really like Julie B's column in the Guardian years ago, but then she became more controversial, left the newspaper, and from then, became strange, irritating, and deliberately shocking, and now I can't stand her.

Team Burchill. I love her. No mimsiness with her.

FricasseeTurnips · 06/06/2021 14:49

Ouch.

CuriousaboutSamphire · 06/06/2021 14:51

She's so fucking abrasive, often goes way too far for polite society, and so often is absolutely right.

Team Burchill!

barbrahunter · 06/06/2021 14:52

Burchill every time

AnneLovesGilbert · 06/06/2021 14:52

Burchill. She’s usually right. This time definitely.

Nightbear · 06/06/2021 14:55

On this, Burchill. Succinct isn’t she Grin

PandoraP · 06/06/2021 14:56

None of them, but Burchill here.

StiggyZardust · 06/06/2021 15:01

Burchill every time. Brutally honest.

Burchill. Can’t stand Knight.

Burchill here, definitely.

AndeanMountainCat · 06/06/2021 15:05

Burch I’ll

Thanks autocorrect.

ofwarren · 06/06/2021 15:09

Definitely Burchill

MiaowMiaow99 · 06/06/2021 15:18

Off to Google, I've missed this.....

Hen2018 · 06/06/2021 15:22

I’ve never been able to tolerate Knight, even years ago.

DinaofCloud9 · 06/06/2021 15:26

Oof. Burchill.

IheartJKR · 06/06/2021 15:26

Burchill.

Knight is a disgrace. How she can leave the house and hold her head up is beyond me.

Pagwatch · 06/06/2021 15:27

It’s just a dead eyed precision hit.

I don’t think women should be judged by their partners deeds but she’s just glossed over his noncery like it was a parking fine

Burchill is awful, but she’s right on this.
