Come on gals, I love the thought that after they do their negative piece on how breastfeeding after 2 years should "Not Be Allowed"

...they then have to announce that most people disagree!!!

Let's see what the power of mumsnet can do.

Ha! The power of MN.

LyraSilvertongue · 29/01/2008 21:56

They might say MN rigged the vote and therefore it's invalid.

Piffle · 29/01/2008 21:56

i am breastfeeding a child who is older than two. how is it rigged if i vote?

Piffle · 29/01/2008 21:58

why is it considered normal to feed your child milk from the udders of another mammal, milk which you have to pay for and store in a fridge, when you have your own milk, free, warm and nutritious.

End of...

VictorianSqualor · 29/01/2008 21:58

Lyra, surely that would be even better than the vote being mainly yes?
Imagine Lorraine Kelly "Well known website Mumsnet.com were up in arms about the voting procedure and rigged the vote" HAHAHAHA

VictorianSqualor · 29/01/2008 21:59

You know we could all just 'report' it MN and get it deleted before the programme is on

robinredbreast · 29/01/2008 22:01

MN would probably love the publicity !
