Lily has once again published the list of people blocked, 2197 people.

And?

MilkTwoSugarsThanks · 15/04/2018 11:24

You could just ignore her? Instead of giving her the publicity she craves?

MissusGeneHunt · 15/04/2018 11:28

Have just had to read up on who LM is, sorry, was naive there. Excellent article by Ellen Whelan. But am still ignorant of what list of people LM has actually blocked... Please enlighten me!! Thank you.

Sparklesocks · 15/04/2018 11:37

Sorry I am confused op, what is the aibu here?

Flomper · 15/04/2018 11:38

so what, let LM get on with it, let them have twitter as their personal echo chamber. The real debate is happening elsewhere.

Queenofthedrivensnow · 15/04/2018 11:39

Assume blocked on twitter so I will be on the list.

CuriousaboutSamphire · 15/04/2018 11:55

It is good to check to see if you are on that list.

If you are a Labour member and Lily has got your real name from labour lists or other confidential sources; If the list includes asserting the people on it have done something illegal etc

After May 25th you can use the GDPR to cause a few issues. Ask to have your name removed as the assertion that you are a TERF is incorrect; ask if the list is kept safe, secure, according to GDPR, no personally identifying info, securely kept etc etc.

If my name ends up on it I will certainly be asking that elected LP official to explain why and to investigate the legalities of it being kept in that format! It is just another teen stupidity that some adult in the LP needs to intervene in!

It's a list of twitter accounts LM has blocked, not a problem, it also includes as much information as LM can find eg real names, it is used to target individuals.

LM likes people to look through the list and dox them. It is a breach of the data protection act and personally I don't like my information becoming public.

I have tried to have it removed. It gets published agin.

Do you have a link?

Ohforfoxsakereturns · 15/04/2018 12:14

Couldn’t give less of a shite what LM thinks.

I just wish everyone would ignore them.

No doubt LM will take great delight in yet ANOTHER mention on MN. To know they have such a presence will fuel them.

Ignore and they will go away.

This is of no help to the GRA debate.

NotACleverName · 15/04/2018 12:39

Oh, thank god. I was beginning to get a bit worried as we'd gone about twenty minutes without a trans thread.

She can block who she likes on Twitter, as can any of us. I've taken to blocking accounts whose sponsored posts end up in my timeline.

MissusGeneHunt · 15/04/2018 12:41

Thanks Sashh, appreciated. I'll keep quiet now for fear of fuelling LM, as I see others' points.

Don't be daft. It's a list of twitter handles and Twitter names , if it shows your real name it's because you use your real name on Twitter. It's partly auto generated so people can be added for reasons like they have blocked her themselves.

There is no dpa breach because there's no information on there, it's just a list of Twitter users.

I haven't seen her ask anyone to dox anyone, just suggested it as s list people can use to avoid people who may say transphobic stuff. I've had a read of the stuff people say to her on Twitter and I don't really blame her for wanting to avoid the constant nastiness she receives. I'm sure some well meaning questioners get blocked in the process, but it's her twitter account, not an mp forum and if she doesn't want to be asked questions on there she doesn't have too.

From the stuff I've seen some people write about her, she is either a troll or mentally ill. If you think either of these are true, Its best you just avoid rather than attempt to find ways to tweet her.

If your issue is you don't think trans women should hold voluntary women's officer positions then there are better ways to make your voice heard than that.

No one outside of twitter space gives a shit who's on that list.

Springnowplease · 15/04/2018 13:03

So sick of reading about this tedious person.

A crashing bore.

You'd really tell your friend to avoid a while university because you think 1 person there might be a bit of a twat? Universities tend to have 20k+ undergraduates . It would be literally insane to turn down a university because you disagree with someone there. I suggest you get help if you think LM could have that much influence, it's a bit tin-foil hat!
