Whoever added up all the posts also needs to include the begging posts.
Begging for money.
Begging for food.
More money.
Clothes.

It’s ridiculous. Surely LM would have had student loan, and should still be able to use
This. Never mind what other students do get a paying job.

I saw a Tweet in which Lily said he was going for a job interview. As he only started Uni in October this must be for a part time job. Unless he meant yet another unpaid post as some kind of rep or officer.

Actually Lily has done some good. I didn't know what a TERF was. Now I am one. Thanks Lil

Grin

Lily is peaktransing so many people that I suspect Lily of being a double agent, working for WPUK Wink

Lily is such a disaster for TRAs, that I can't believe they haven't shut Lily down. They needed the first TIM in a women's role to be unimpeachable, intelligent and serious - someone like Miranda Yardley (not that Miranda would ever stand, of course) - and to campaign actively for women. That would have made it hard for women to object. Instead, we have the vapid, vain, avaricious Lily whose every Tweet is evidence of unfitness for the role. It's going to get harder and harder for Lily's handmaidens to keep supporting Lily without looking like total idiots.

Madigan is an MRA in a dress, not a trans woman as most people would understand the term. He saw an opportunity for self promotion and for indulging his misogyny and he took it. The bigger scandal is that the leader of the Labour Party fell for it and is feting him. And Harriet Harman is unbelievably dim-witted to say that members would see through it if an MRA were to try to get elected. It has already happened, at the very first attempt.

@TerfyMcTerface

At times like this, I wish MN had a 'like' button. It doesn't. Please accept this Gin in lieu of a quantifiable expression of appreciation on an online platform!

I may or may not have tweeted my annoyance at the ageism of Young Labour. I truly feel that since I identify mentally as a 16 year old I should be allowed in. This is how this works, right?

I WANT TO Be BLOCKED, DAMN IT!

BigChocFrenzy · 12/02/2018 22:02

Maybe he's a Tory plant.

I'm a floating centrist voter,
but my feminism is firm, not floating.

I'm disgusted that Labour committed this outrageous betrayal of feminism
So I won't consider voting Labour until they stop throwing women under the TRA bus

OlennasWimple · 12/02/2018 22:03

LM has re-tweeted something about abortion on demand - that's as close as I've seen him got regarding women's issues.

LM has an, um, difficult relationship with his mother: twitter.com/madigan_lily/status/957949915891732480

The Spectator has noticed:

(paywall)
https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2018/02/jeremy-corbyn-has-a-new-enemy-mumsnet/
…
Which brings me to the most politically pressing thing I’ve learned.
Mumsnet is angry

They think that the sort of self-declared gender laws that may end up in force in the UK, as they have in other countries,
will do nothing less than render the word ‘woman’ meaningless, with all that that implies for equality and freedom and, well, civilisation as we know it.

To paraphrase some common sentiments:
you can’t become a woman, because womanhood is based on biology, socialisation and experience that only those born to it can know;

if the law dictates that a man can attain womanhood simply by signing a few forms, womanhood becomes empty and women lose any standing in society.

This is what Lily thinks of us....Hmm

TheXXFactor · 12/02/2018 22:08

I wouldn't believe a fucking word Lily said. The fact that his mother hasn't yet brained him with a frying pan is proof that the woman is a saint Halo

TerfyMcTerface · 12/02/2018 22:17

Thanks TERFousBreakdown, don't mind if I do, it's been a long day!

Mrsmiguelcervantes · 13/02/2018 07:58

Ugh just looking at the responses to Lily’s tweet about his mum deadnaming him. Lots of ‘if I were your mum I’d be proud to have such an awesome daughter’. If Lily were my son I’d be thoroughly ashamed of the petulant, narcissistic, misogynyist brat.

AngryAttackKittens · 13/02/2018 08:03

If Lily was my offspring he'd be grounded until he was 30.

stoneagefertilitydoll · 13/02/2018 08:04

The trouble with putting it this way, is it brings out all the people who think it's that we're jealously guarding 'womanhood' (whatever the hell that's supposed to be) - rather than actually fighting to keep the small accommodations that have been granted us in lieu of being thought of as actual people with thoughts and feelings.

Horridemma · 13/02/2018 09:26

Lily is not a women's rep, he is a trans student rep. That is the group he communicates with best. If he doesn't get on with his mum then it could be tricky communicating with older women as he probably sees us as all the same.

Bindibot · 13/02/2018 09:53

@TheXXFactor The fact that his mother hasn't yet brained him with a frying pan is proof that the woman is a saint while I never agree with violence............I 100% agree.

As my aged Ma would say 'Huff, his parents did him wrong' (translates to he didn't get sufficient parenting)

Scabbersley · 13/02/2018 14:58

The irony is that Lily would be great as a trans student rep.

Apparently I'm blocked too - fame at last!

Despite not being a gambler, found this on Twitter and thought I'd share it

Funny though, I sent it to Lily on twitter and he blocked me without a seconds pause. Proud moment preens to self
