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.
Mumsnet is currently trending on Twitter.
What rebels we are, having views.

I’m ok with any variety of quiche. Mushrooms though? I’m a born fungiphobe.

I'm here for all the quiches Sad

She’ll have to come to New York to arrest me.

She might just do that!

Have they got cars big as bars and rivers of gold?

I really hope so or I'll feel awfully let down. Even more so if the boys in the NYPD choir aren't singing Galway Bay while they arrest our NYC sisters.

As they'll have to fly me first class from Australia, I'll stop over in Singapore for duty-free shopping. Who's for a little festive tipple of sherry, ye naughty ladies?

@IcakethereforeIamInnocent MumsMet 😀😃🙂 Break out the Benny Hill theme and catch us if you can!

We do. We’re also packing heat.

As a man, and therefore more important than you, I say shut up harridans.

JulianFawcettMP · 22/12/2023 01:48

In case it's not clear, I support you and happy to be arrested

Shit.
Are we all going to be in a cell over Xmas?

I could be doing with a wee holiday by myself 😂

I identify as someone who knows that males have two X chromosomes and females have an X and a Y. There we are, lock me up now. 🙄

She's not actually in government, nor responsible for the mess this country is in, whatever you might think of her.

Show quote history

The point of His Majesty's Loyal Opposition is to be an effective opposition and hold the Govt to account. If they don't do that effectively, they are partly responsible for the mess.

Erm... it's the other way around.

😂😂😂

That will teach me to post in the middle of the night.

I have 300 pigs in blankets to prep. And two dentures to fit tomorrow. May have to identify as Netmums until it blows over.

Are we driving ourselves there or will there be transport ? Just asking because we will need a diagram for long term stay parking ..

Okay, I know this is going to be controversial but <girds self> isn't a crustless quiche just an omelette?

<wonders how long the Peelers are going to be>

No it's a frittata?

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.

Edited

Dawn only needs to come and visit my sheep. Male sheep mount each other all the time if there are no females around. They soon forget about being gay after being given a field of lovely ewes. Actually I think most MPs would benefit from a week chez derxa

I’ll smuggle in the iPad. Gotta to get word to the outside world. I think a Mn ‘free the 8 million’ blog could be popular.

Well I woke up to all this hilarity, and have spent half an hour laughing through your brilliant posts.
We are ALL PART of the Mumsnet Massif now, us dangerous people, and I think your hilarious responses demand a request to join CLASSICS.

She might indeed!

Meanwhile. "Tom" appears to have deleted his account but the best Brent has to offer has continued to rack up the views: 771k. But the likes? Not so much: 1.4k 😬

Was Tom performing a reverse?! I think we should be told

I’d like to know whether MN have seen a spike in traffic from Twitter.

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

Did she seriously say that? What utter nonsense 😳
