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

[Disco50]

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.

They were in the shops rather than the food hall bits. Can't remember exactly which ones, but multiple places. I look forward to a review.

Sorry you make shortbread?

@ArabellaScott @Boiledbeetle

as it happens I happen to have a few pallets lying about seeing as it’s nowhere near July

I fear they are a bit puny for a full sized trebuchet though and cat has them paw-marked for hers

someone must know where we could find a few massive thick planks though 🤔

entirely unrelated, does labour hq have a loading bay?

I need this recipe <misses point>

4oz butter ( or spready butter)
2 oz demerara sugar
6 oz p flour

Mix this together.

Add 1 packet of chocolate chips ( tesco are good) and a big handful of roasted hazelnuts cut in half ( lidl).

Mush into a ball.
Roll or squish out and cut biscuit shapes.
Cook at 180° for 15-20 mins.
Cool
Eat.

Sorry about ounces measurements..I use a set of 1920s balance scales!

I made shortbread yesterday , with a recipe similar to @FuzzyPuffling .
i had not thought of the choc chips and hazelnuts , but I did switch out 1oz of flour for ground almonds. They are lovely.

Thanks @FuzzyPuffling that sounds amazing. I adore shortbread, hazelnuts, and of course, chocolate, so I feel this is going to go well.

I say 'misses point' but actually not. Women exchanging ideas, support (and recipes!) is pretty much what MN is about for most of us.

He has indeed!

I'm a shit cook, but these biscuits are so easy. Promise!

This is the absolute business.

Just going to quietly bagsy prisoner number 24601 ...

'someone must know where we could find a few massive thick planks though 🤔'

You mean like a certain MP and her over eager side kick?

We're going to have to be careful when discussing recipes for a good Moroccan shank in there. Wouldn't want to end up with a cavity search by the guards.

Look down, look down, you’re standing on your quiche…

I make the Roasted Hazelnut and Chocolate cookies from the Peyton and Bryne cookbook. It's a faff rubbing the skins off the hot nuts (and yes, I'm aware that sounds weird!) but the cookies are definitely worth it.

I make my own Baileys - it's incredibly easy to make and very tasty but definitely does go off (lasts about 2 weeks).

Why this a hill some MP's and others seem willing to die on, I find surprising.

Apologies @RedToothBrush I've just been pulled back to page 5 by a notification and realised I got completely the wrong end of the stick when I replied to your post. Sorry. 😱

This fine. Figured you probably had.

I'll lay low in yer bucket. Just don't pull the wrong lever and tip me out.

Will we ever discover what the police’s reaction has been/will be to Dawn Butler’s complaint?

Like this, would you say @VaddaABeetch ?

How lucky we are to have femininity experts such as Dylan to show us how we should exert ourselves.

🤣 👏

No, because the met haven’t stopped laughing yet.

Noooooooo!!!!

Given how many Mumsnetters there are it'll trigger another national toilet roll shortage!

I'd wager the Met's having more pressing issues on Black Eye Friday!
