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.

Oh, this is exciting!

While we’re waiting to be arrested, can someone fill me in on the gay giraffes claim? On the surface, it sounds like a ludicrous thing to say, but I expect once someone’s explained the context, it will turn out to be a ludicrous thing to say.

As well as babies being born without a sex, let's not forget the time she said 90% of giraffes were gay.

Ok I really do belong in the MN prison now because I just choked on my tea and can't stop laughing at this, that's so fucking funny. Too scared to Google in case it's not true.

WomenShouldStillWinWomensSports · 21/12/2023 21:03

New mission. Tell Dawn Whoever the most outlandish thing possible and see which one she believes is actually true, bonus points if she regurgitates it near the national media.

I'll start. Michael Jackson is secretly a T-rex. Proof: I've never seen both in the same room at the same time, nor has anyone else. 🧐

NalafromtheLionKing · 21/12/2023 21:03

Question for Dawn: what were those extra dangly bits attached to my DC (who, like all babies, were born sexless)? They have some other characteristics which make them seem masculine as they grow up too but maybe society made their voices break 🤔

Edit: not surprised about the giraffes. It’s actually 100%, which explains why they are now extinct.

Hermittrismegistus · 21/12/2023 21:03

That woman is an absolute numpty.

RowanMayfair · 21/12/2023 21:04

Dawn Butler is a melt

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

😂😂😂

SerendipityJane · 21/12/2023 21:06

Well she can fuck off

LarkLane · 21/12/2023 21:07

Anyone from Style and Beauty available to suggest an outfit for my arrest.
Possibly stripes or arrow print?

RestlessEyesEgosBurn · 21/12/2023 21:07

Of all the stupid things Labour MPs have said recently, even Dawn Butler's gay giraffes and/or sex-less babies wouldn't even make the top ten.

wite · 21/12/2023 21:07

I don't mind being in the chokey over Christmas if I don't have to see my in laws then.

RedToothBrush · 21/12/2023 21:07

Fucking hell another thread about this!

Have you actually read the actual thread?! Dawn hasn't.

LindorDoubleChoc · 21/12/2023 21:07

What is your BU aspect? I don't care about Twitter for one nano-second.

Thedogscollar · 21/12/2023 21:08

If we get to play Monopoly whilst in our cell do we get another throw of the dice if we land on the go to jail square?
Surely that's only fair?

OMG I know this, I know this. Hang on a minute. It'll come to me... the dangly bits... I'm sure I did something about this during science teacher training... Is it something to do with Count Tentacula the Christmas Octopus who comes down the hospital chimney and delivers 50% of the population a single tentacle to disguise their delicate flowery feminine feels?

RethinkingLife · 21/12/2023 21:09

Do you remember this from 2018?

I write this from jail. My cellie is in for putting up a “humans are mammals” sticker. Big Val across the hall was caught in possession of a “People have opposable thumbs” decal, which finished off a family of five. Me? I’m here because of the pink penis caper. Hundreds died.

Life is tough here in biological facts sticker jail. They’re weaning me off stickers with small bits of sellotape, one inch per day. One day I may be part of society again. At night though I still hear the screams of my victims, and my hands itch for novelty adhesives.

And back in the days when the students of Goldsmith were recommending us for the Gulag and we were making our plans for subsistence and reading lists?

NalafromtheLionKing · 21/12/2023 21:09

Another question: can you be both gay and sexless (presumably with no genitals, like Ken)? Did anyone tell these sexless giraffes they were gay, and how can you tell if they are gender neutral? 🤯

OracleofWurms1 · 21/12/2023 21:09

pickles, it was good knowing you all, time i make extraction to the bunker vault 111

Krampussy · 21/12/2023 21:09

Dawn you're an absolute fucking dafty and an embarrassment to women and this country.

Report that as a hate crime.

Where is the actual thread?

I’d sooner not be inside for Christmas if that’s ok. DH is only just out of hospital and I’m quite liking having him back.

Dibbydoos · 21/12/2023 21:10

Far too many comments by people who are still in voting Tory Frances are on MN. It's not the sensible amongst us she's complaining about....😁😎

Shit 😮
One of you go and start the car, and the rest of us will walk out one at a time - keep it casual ......

Faz469 · 21/12/2023 21:10

Where's the original thread? I want to comment to see if I'm arrested.... love a man in uniform. Especially if he comes with handcuffs and a laser 😈😈🙈🙊

No because that would be elitist (Count) and non-secular (Christmas). But the rest sounds right.
