I'm not going to be able to make the zoom call, but if anyone is willing to ask the question I'd be interested to know what changes Julie would like to make that she would think would lead to more rape convictions.

Marvellous, love her!!

@RethinkingLife no I had done a Google before first posting to check which confirmed what I was thinking. I did have them mixed up (hence my surprise at the love for Burchill on here)! I understand why would react that way though - kind of the behaviour of a troll in the way you describe it.

Islamophobia is pretty common, what can I tell you. I think that lots of people who should know better rely on islamophobic tropes in their writing. I don’t mean to equate Burchill and Bindel though!

I’m so with her on gender critical issues though.

Thanks so much for this! Looking forward to hearing a voice of sanity.

Mumsnet is costing me a fortune, have bought JB's book, Kathleen Stock's and also Helen Joyce's all in one week

Excellent!

Really looking forward to this.

I'm worried about my anonymity. But I'm currently looking after my mum (she's semi paralyzed and recently widowed) and the time slot doesn't work for me so I'll leave it open for someone who is definitely going to be able to attend.

Looking forward to this
