Web chat with Janice Turner

[BernardBlacksWineIcelolly]

Hello @MNHQ

Janice Turner has just won the prestigious Press Gazette Comment Journalist of the year award (richly deserved).

Would there be any possibility of inviting her to come for a web chat? I know there are many women here who would love to talk to her.

What do you think?

👍

Please? I know certain people would hate it but she’s an award winning journalist who is speaking up for women like no one else right now. Many of the women of MN would love to have a deeper conversation with her. And I’m guessing she wouldn’t strop off like the NSPCC did

Please MNHQ. She is a respected print journalist who has just won a prestigious award for her work.

She really is a perfect candidate for a webchat

Oh yes please.

Janice was at Speaker's Corner. She's also written very honestly and powerfully about her mother's dementia. I think that's also something that would resonate with a lot of MNers.

Janice would be excellent for a web chat.

Yes please!

Good idea Bernard
That would be a great Christmas/New Year/anytime present

I imagine there'd be no topic off limits for Janice, which would contrast nicely with John 'I can't hear you but I love broken biscuits' McDonnell.

Yes please

I love her! She replied to a tweet of mine once, I was well chuffed!! She'd be a fab guest on here.

I've met her a couple of times. She's lovely.

I’d love that too

Yes please! I'd love to hear directly from her about writing about contentious issues and the way that certain elements try to silence women's voices in a way that they don't with men

Another yes please from me!

Great idea

I would love it too

Yes please.

Yes! This would be ace!

I would love this too.

Yes good choice for a Web chat if she has the time.
