See I'm optomistic and think this thread will get a bit too long as well LOL..

Looks like we may be discussed on Jeremy Vine's lunchtime show, BBC 2, see here . You can contact the show using this

The host Victoria will have had to be hard on wannabe - there was no opposing caller on. It's her job to try to make the debate balanced. Trust me on this one....

I think it has to be a bit tough..devil's advocate and all that..like mn actually

wonder if nobody will sue me now because I said on national radio that she's earned herself a lot of bad publicity.

fair enough if she wants to appear balanced but she also needs to let people get a word in edgeways!

No wannabe, she has and the defence would be 'fair comment'

Don't forget guys, once something appears in a aperp you can contact 'write to the editor' for the Letter's Page also.

have already written to the daily mail as got that in front of me

Have emailed Jeremy vine as well with the link to the petition - maybe we will get it up on a few more websites. If we could get it on the bbc we'll be laughing.

I've emailed Jeremy Vine too but I hope he doesn't phone me up as I have tonsilitis and I don't think i'd sound very good on radio!

did jeremy vine, times and independent

have to pop out (blinkin DH) will check up soon

VERY well done Wannabe. You didn't allow yourself to be sidetracked by the non-issue of 'well, you wouldn't like it, would you?' That is SO not the point.
You are not a 'expert in childcare', you have not put your face (urgh) and name into the public eye, you do not purport to know more than anyone else on a subject which is largely instinctive for mothers (ahem) and you do not acknowledge in other publications such as the Guardian that your views are controversial and then seek to ban any controversy.

Does the (urgh) make it deletable... i am of course referring to wannabe's face?

oooh a bit of opposition on five live now - hmmm would we make those comments to nobody's face?

i really would (urgh)

Think Clive Anderson covering for JV - should be interesting, him being a lawyer...

got it on now, i like clive anderson

"sent to bed early"

what radio station are you listening to 5 or 2

channel 4 news shortly.

2

1. is it on c4 news?

2

haha, "sent to bed without any supper" I like that.

It would be interesting to see how contravercy like this affect sales?

Yes. Any comment that has been allowed to stand on Mumsnet, by the rules on their own code of conduct as opposed to the enforced gag, I would repeat to Nobody's face. The ones I wouldn't repeat, I wouldn't have said, and they have been deleted in any case.

that is what has been missed - Mumsnet is being treated as a single entity, whereas it is thousands of seperate people, all posting their own opinion, usually with no more thought than stringing together a sentence. That is why it isn't like a newspaper.
