The conversation is far from over on this...

I have been saying for days this situation could split political parties, i do not want this but it is time to take it to the public. I have just joined the Labour party because of Jennifer, the party should be proud she has inspired a working class stay at home mum to get involved.

£16,846 - 997 people :)

Nice to see the total still climbing.

I've emailed GFM twice for clarification on the email but no response so far.

It's like we've slipped into a parallel topsy turvy world, I blame cern!

Things haven't been the same since Bob Holness (RIP) left this world.

I think there is a connection. #nodebate

I'm a major lurker, but has anyone got a way of stashing this threads and possibly collating the emails people have received? They could be important.
I'm afraid I have no idea how to do this myself

Thanks for the synopsis, I saw another thread on here and had a Google but couldn't figure out what it was all about!

Bob Holness - I haven't thought of him for ages - makes me think of rave culture in the 1990s "Give me an E please Bob"...

- By jove I think you've cracked it Popchyk.

WWBD? What would Bob do?

That's how I live my life.

Back up to 1000. That didn't take long.

Yay!! 1000 donors Early night tonight zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I don't know what Robin Ince is actually saying. I don't know how to screenshot, but someone replied to him saying (I paraphrase) use of the word TERF is vile, and he replied "on this occasion I am not referring to that with my previous tweet". So perhaps his original tweet was nothing to do with trans issues? Or it is?? No idea what's going on there.

He probably just doesn't want to get dragged into a Ralf moment.

Brilliant 1000!!!!

Flippin heck, things are moving fast. I donated anonymously so at the moment, my donation still stands.

Often the raging TERFs are the silent ones. They can't risk a torrent of abuse so just keep quiet.

Lots of real (I assume, they're not ones I recognise) names now, not anon. People have reached DGAF over this today, I reckon

Bob played James Bond in his youth don't you know. (voice only but still, phwoar).

There's a lot going on. Some nob end in red lippy (Sali did say there's a red lipstick for everyone) is making 'a powerful statement' on channel four news' twitter feed. Charlotte is being hailed as a modern beacon of tolerance and diversity.

Shame he was a disgusting misogynist with an entire hashtag about his abuses of women and black people until last Tuesday, when he was still Charles.

What an epic shower of twats.

My favourite quote of this week on Mumsnet:

Brocialists:

Trans inclusionary in the tweets
Trans exclusionary in the sheets

I've always loved your screen name morris

The Rummidge Uni novels are so fab. Might reread them soon. I suspect that Morris might have fallen down a transwome-are-women po-mo hole, but Phillip Swallow wouldn't and Desiree would surely have been a massive terf!

Philip Swallow would be publicly sitting on the fence so hard he got piles, while secretly thinking TERFY thoughts then feeling conflicted about them.

Nearly 17 grand! Over a hundred donated in the last hour alone.

Phillip Swallow totally sounds like a porn character.

I am a bit miffed that the opportunity to use it in the fundraising page has now gone. Damn you, Jack Monroe.

You're right, hairy. Poor Philip - this would be a torment to him!

Unless we can find a real Phil swallow and get him to donate...
