Hi MNHQ,

Just watched Julia Long on C4 about transgender issues and how they impact on women. There has been a lot of discussion of these issues on MN recently, and Ms Long seems to have a different view to mainstream/government etc. I thought she could be an interesting MN guest?

Definitely.

Thirded!!

ApplesinmyPocket · 15/01/2016 12:15

Yes please, if she would!

whatdoIget · 15/01/2016 12:18

Yes please. Just watched her on channel 4 news and she comes across as intelligent, thoughtful, and quietly assertive.

CrayonShavings · 15/01/2016 12:20

Yes please MNHQ - she was brilliant on ch4 last night.

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 15/01/2016 12:39

Yes please. She seems like she really knows her stuff and can articulate it very clearly. This isn't a marginal issue any more.

Absolutely yes please to this too.

She's been brave enough to express how many women feel, but who can't say it because they either don't have the platform or they fear the backlash for saying it.

I think she would be an interesting and valuable voice for a web chat.

Alisvolatpropiis · 15/01/2016 12:47

I'm keen for this to happen!

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 15/01/2016 12:49

Yes to this
