Aibu to point out that 'Mumsnet' is currently trending on Twitter/X because a labour MP has (rather comically) reported it to the police?

Dawn Butler has reported Mumsnet as a whole to the police, for talking to each other and Having Views she does not like.

Oh but I'll like some petrol money upfront first.

I’d imagine Shania Twain’s ‘Man, I feel like a woman’, or Aerosmith’s ‘Dude looks like a lady’ would both be highly problematic.

(You make me feel like) a natural woman.

Surely we'll need some fava beans (and a nice chianti)

TinaYouFatLard · 21/12/2023 22:08

I hope the rozzers turn up soon to drag me off to do some bird - I’m taking the kids to Winter Wonderland tomorrow and honestly think it would be preferable.

Well....I was warned not to join this hate site as apparently it's full of nasty women and now Dawn says that part is actually true 😱

Awks.

It's really not that funny when you look at the hate speech laws proposed for Ireland.

Would a Starmer govt, with a cabinet probably containing Dawn Butler, be far behind?

I put dark chocolate chips and roasted hazelnuts into my shortbread. Is this an indictable offence?

I have no idea, but I love shortbread, dark chocolate and hazelnuts, so that sounds divine to me!

RumNotRun · 21/12/2023 22:12

I have wine (several bottles) some rum, Morrisons version of Baileys, and a turkey that I can bring. Although from what I've heard from ex-customers (not THAT kind of customer!) you have to smuggle things in your bum, the turkey is much too big!

I have discussed with the cats whether they could dig us a tunnel to escape through. They said only if sufficient amounts of Dreamies are offered.

If I'm going to prison then could it please be tonight as I've got a full day of work tomorrow and then have to do the big wrap?

But yeah, you can see why it's scary. A these women. Talking. Having ideas, shaping opinions not all of them about baking .

I mainly lurk, but am posting out of solidarity. And also a nice rest inside would be perfect, as I am currently recovering after moving flat.

Replace a bit of the flour for the shortbread with cornflour. I know Mary Berry has some in her recipe., because she said so the other day on the telly.

I expect giraffes, like other male mammals, mount each other to show dominance. I saw some male alpacas doing this very thing last week on the telly. Dawn is clearly easily confused.

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 21/12/2023 22:16

did Someone mention dreamies? My cats want in.

But not til at least 3rd? 4th? January. I need a proper break.

WomenShouldStillWinWomensSports · 21/12/2023 22:16

I'm getting so confused now, is this the thread that's descended into giraffe memes or the pie recipe one? They're starting to cross over. 🤣

ThePoshUns · 21/12/2023 22:16

What a melt

Ortila · 21/12/2023 22:16

I am a bit worried about this hate speech stuff. I mean, I'm tits deep in frigging menopause. There's loads of things I hate. Hate is my default emotion rn. Especially at BASTARD Xmas time. If it gets to be illegal I won't have anything to occupy myself with at all.

Dawn Butler is the genius MP who said babies are born without a sex.

Despite following UK politics fairly closely,
I've never heard of her
but - Seriously??

Oh dear ...
