Some of us would like to know if a certain politico will be banned, proper.

No rush.

We know you have a lot on your plate with ... stuff.

(I probably got two quotes mixed up in subject line. Don't panic! It's me not you. Am philistine. Italy is wasted on me. Not keen on art, prefer shopping.)

Ok, not you lot have put me off Twatter for ever-and-ever: if I get an account I get a free Shiny Dave? Really don't think so Hmm

Having said that, could somebody link to an exciting/pertinent Twitter page? I get lost when I just randomly try to find you lot...

V promising stuff re lawyers and Other Interested People following though. Not for a minute do I think things will happen over night even once everybody has recovered from their holiday hangovers, but my, we've come a long way!!

MmeD, your thread is brilliant! I've lurked on it - I am of the never-through-any-food-away ilk, so find inspiration there

Oh Madame I'm starving now I've read all that . I have a dyspraxic super taster son too. If I even grate pepper in the same room as him he is all 'It burns, it burns, tooooo spiiiiccceeeeyyy'. Grin

PrincessFlirtyPants · 02/01/2014 15:45

I might be embarrassingly late on this, but there is an article in the DM about this.

Has everyone seen it?

MadameDefarge · 02/01/2014 15:49

Linky linky?

MadameDefarge · 02/01/2014 15:50

PrincessFlirtyPants · 02/01/2014 15:50

MadameDefarge · 02/01/2014 15:53

PacificDogwood · 02/01/2014 15:53

The DM??

CarpeVinum · 02/01/2014 15:53

LostInWales · 02/01/2014 15:53

Bleaches eyes I had to go on DM website to do that . Spero might want to take a quick look as it names her properly. Twats.

PrincessFlirtyPants · 02/01/2014 15:54

There's no children's names in it. Just the MN posters real name.

LakeDistrictBabe · 02/01/2014 15:54

Carpe

I tried to follow that account

Btw, David Cameron official twitter account only follows about 300 people... like Gary Barlow lol

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 02/01/2014 15:55

fail link that kindly names spero, in case anyone had missed her real name...
I would say its shocking, but its the fail, nothing they write shocks me.

PrincessFlirtyPants · 02/01/2014 15:55

Ah yes. That's why I didn't want to post the link as I didn't know if her real name was common knowledge.

The article was posted at 15:24 so not that long.

LakeDistrictBabe · 02/01/2014 15:57

Again the DM???? Silly twats!!

So it is ok to name mumsnetters on the DM, not on mumsnet though! How do they dare?

Libel comes to mind!!

PacificDogwood · 02/01/2014 15:58

Hm. Interesting.

Good Things about DM article:

  • national
  • not defending JH; quite neutral seeing that the DH has previous form re 'baby snatching' etc

Bad Things:

  • it names Spero
  • it's the DM

Hm.
I have no idea what privacy rights we have, posting here? Never really thought about it.

MadameDefarge · 02/01/2014 15:58

well its not libel, sadly. not even malicious falsehood.

It's just disgusting.

CarpeVinum · 02/01/2014 15:58

DM taking a leaf out of poltico's book of nasty tricks I see.

Couldn't fuckingnhelp themselves could they.

Still, that won't go down well with the millions of internet posters who tend not to approve of such things. With any luck they will be pressured to take that big out.

OP posts:
PacificDogwood · 02/01/2014 15:59

It's not libel to name somebody

Is the argument that JH has already outed her, so repeating her name does not matter??

Spero, you aware of this??

MadameDefarge · 02/01/2014 15:59

Poor Spero. That is so fucking out of order.

CarpeVinum · 02/01/2014 16:01

Well that's one I'm not tweeting.

On principle.

I will just stalk whoever did tweet it dricet from source and send them memes. Lots and lots of memes.
