Page 16 | AIBU to want to express support for women who were assaulted at a political conference?

Warmlight1 · 2026-09-08T20:41:48+00:00

To want to send out support to the two women visibly assaulted at a political conference. I am concerned about the other protesters too and actually anyone who was hurt. But having to listen to jeering from the podium plus the crowd chanting in live TV at the same time must have been so traumatic and the publicity will die down and coverage move on but that can't be easy. Just want to send love and support.

I’m not sure we should assume that the alleged [sic] victims have anything to hide. Maybe they took a glimpse at what the RNLI got a bit of just for doing their job and, having already been on the end of one Reform beating, didn’t fancy any more punishment. But yes, let’s hope the law takes its course and no one feels too intimidated to let that happen.

And the police have enough for an arrest without the victim. The footage and witnesses would be enough.

Also immediately allege she ' hurt herself' to try I assume to manage any liability
Could there be liability? At a corporate level?

It’s gaslighting and DARVO on another level. And reminds me of women in the past being labelled insane and put into secure psychiatric hospitals if they reacted to the abuse they were experiencing.

Men with fragile egos, with nothing much of value to bring to the world, reacting to being called out on their own shit behaviour.

More of the same - presume Jenrick is trying to divert attention from Farage' s arrest and also from Farage's cultish behaviour which seemed to lead supporters towards perpetrating to the assaults, instead of away from

They're revolting. And so is every poster on this thread who has condoned the attack on this woman. Vile, vile people.

Did anyone else think they looked like the zombie apocalypse from Shaun of the dead? Deranged cult the lots of them.

His email is easy to obtain. I have emailed him to complain. Anyone in his constituency should do so as he has to read and respond then.

His constituency is Newark.

He represents you in parliament so if his actions do not represent you then he needs to hear, from as many of you as possible.

Agree. 100%

Whatever your politics and beliefs, there is no place for intimidation or violence or condoning it. Especially male violence towards women.

Can one e mail if he isn't your MP? Also applies to Farage.? I do feel Jenrick is diverting us a bit. There have got to be networks in Newark and Clacton who can take this up

Well. I did. I felt I needed to voice my views. But yes. People in Newark and Clacton are best placed.
