This is what it has come to. A women thrown out of a women's network party because of a man, or more accurately, a boy's feelings might be hurt. What the fuck is going on?

I've wondered how he would respond if I wrote to him about transwomen abortion rights. Or transwomen period poverty. Or transwomen inclusion in breastfeeding groups. Or transwomen being able to access appropriate contraception services.

Yes I've thought about doing this.

Screencaps on Twitter of her abusive and harassing comments, borderline death threats,

If they're on twitter you won't mind linking to them, will you?

OlennasWimple · 14/12/2017 23:27

Lucy Bannerman (Times) has tweeted about the incident - still no comment that I can see from Labour Women

pisacake · 14/12/2017 23:35

You linked to the wrong person

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 14/12/2017 23:45

A different labour person, this is beginning to look like a purge.

"I've just been called in by the local Labour group for a Change of Circumstances interview and will probably now get thrown of the panel of approved councillor candidates. Why? Because I'm not afraid to say women don't have dicks". t.co/TgQDaXe1Ds

Horrible and insane that this is happening but you have to love her reply SmileSmileSmile it has cheered me up 👋😀SmileSmile

BeyondAssignation · 15/12/2017 09:00

Makes me begin to wonder about the "association with bad guys" too. If I write to the Labour Party, are they gonna kick DH out?

WTAFisthisshit · 15/12/2017 14:05

Ffs this person who represents WOMAN thinks that trans woman are a larger proportion of the population than woman who have been assaulted!

Are Labour actually going to DO anything about this?

SparklyUnicornTractors · 15/12/2017 15:20

Madigan seriously believes there are more transwomen than there are biological women who have been assaulted.........

Oh my actual God. I've been reading the posts from some droppers in today and thinking the stupidity and inflexibility of thinking is jaw dropping but that's just plain delusional.

We're back to how do you deal with batshit MiLs and other people with major 'issues' aren't we - you can't reason with someone who lives in such a totally distorted and subjective reality and can't take on board actual facts.

BeyondAssignation · 15/12/2017 15:23

Did you miss lily saying he can get pregnant, then?

He is delusional, or trolling on a rather large scale.

WTAFisthisshit · 15/12/2017 15:25

Sadly I didn't miss Lily's claims to be able to get pregnant. I have no idea if Lily is delusional or trolling but I do know the Labour Party is fucked and I wonder if this had anything to do with the tories overtaking them in the polls?

hipsterfun · 15/12/2017 15:45

If Labour is so hopeless as to let this shit go unchallenged, they deserve it. And I say that as a life-long Labour voter.

Thehairthebod · 15/12/2017 16:06

The thing that Lily doesn't get (or more likely is deliberately choosing to ignore) is that violence against trans people is a different problem to violence against women. The violence comes from different places, happens for different reasons. Which is why Lily Madigan should have stood for trans officer. Because she is trans.

Lily's tweet linked above really does make it look like she is saying 'women, your problems don't mean shit, it's all about the trans women'.

QuentinSummers · 15/12/2017 16:10

Jennifer kicks butt. I hope she is reading this. It looks like the CLF picked the wrong person to intimidate on this issue.

QuentinSummers · 15/12/2017 16:11

Jennifer is the woman in itsall link, strongly recommend everyone has a nose to see the "transphobia" the Labour party object to

Thehairthebod · 15/12/2017 16:33

Does Lily seriously still live at home? And she will still shame her mother so publicly on Twitter?

What a twat.

WTAFisthisshit · 15/12/2017 16:34

Haha I've just posted that on another thread!

That poor, poor family.

hipsterfun · 15/12/2017 16:42

Go to your room, Lily!

WTAFisthisshit · 15/12/2017 16:54

If I was Lily's Mum I'd be buying a book on the facts of life for Christmas. Usbourne do some good ones!

pisacake · 15/12/2017 17:32

I just wonder why Liam thinks this is will attract sympathy.

I wonder if for Christmas he could stop publicly shaming his family (so far he has publicly slandered his mother, his brother, and basically said they are all a bunch of racists/homophobies/transphobes).

But no, it's all about Liam isn't it. Everyone has to validate him. No thought for anyone else

pisacake · 15/12/2017 17:36

I mean 'I can't be arsed to change on my Paypal account before begging for money, but my mum is the evil deadnamer, right'

OlennasWimple · 15/12/2017 18:25

So as well as Biology 101, LM needs to study Maths 101

If the population is roughly 50/50 men and women, and 0.3-3% of the population is trans, including both transmen and transwomen, but 1in 3 women suffer violence or sexual abuse, how on earth does that tally up with LM's assertion that there are more transwomen than women who have been assaulted? Confused

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 15/12/2017 18:27

You need to legally change your name before you can change it on PayPal, however Lily has been Lily for 3 years so I can't see the issue?

OlennasWimple · 15/12/2017 18:48

Is it just coincidence that Jennifer James is in Liverpool, Momentum stronghold? Hmm
