Thanks for sharing OP, is there any further info about them? I couldn't see any on the link. It would be great if one of these lists addresses male socialisation.

It was shared by a Labour Party MP, that's how I came across it.

I did think it was a bit ironic that they were sharing this after the whole "expell me" thing...
To be honest I don't know much about the group other than, if it's being shared by MPs it's a good thing and might gain traction.

Thanks. Also porn, I'd really like to see something more radical.

A few alarm bells ringing. Everyone wants women to back their causes right now, and the right to demonstrate is the heart of this one. I would bet they wonderful Sisters Uncut have a hand in this one. Am I being too cynical? No, I don't think so

It raised my suspicions too. The single page without any further context doesn't instil confidence.

There's more than a scent of switch and bait.

No details, no signature without more information about this organisation and who is behind it.

Not sure who I'd be giving my details to there. Just a single wordpress page with a privacy policy.

I've not signed it either, not until I know who they are and what it is they reallywant**

It's like the difference between Reclaim The Streets and Reclaim These Streets - and the name feels as if it ought to be associated with FWS' Women Won't Wheest initiative but who knows.

What a world when everything, by necessity, has to be scrutinised in this way.

Indeed. I need to know who I am sharing my personal details with before I share them.

Yeah - nope.

Maybe the OP can enlighten us about the organisation. Meanwhile, I suggest to them that a bit of proof-reading might have given a more professional impression.

I literally know nothing about this group other than it was shared on Twitter by a well known MP.

I wondered if sharing the page here would help their aims which seem to be reasonable on the face of it. No mention of gender and all that.

email harvesting, if nothing else! I won't do that with a group I've no knowledge of, this has no information whatsoever.

It says 'we' all the way through but no mention of who 'we' is.

Sorry, didn't mean that to sound so blunt, GCNQ. Just wary about these things, sadly.

It seems to be connected to this.

I'm still not signing it.

Some good names like Kiri Tunks but I've too many misgivings about other signatories - including #BeKind Helena Kennedy.

Karen Ingala Smith is a signatory of that letter in the Guardian. But Maxine Peake is very much TWAW

Labour and Green party’s? No thank you, their record on supporting women is now abysmal. How long before ‘women’ only means ‘trans women’?
