This thread is moving along very smartly in the AIBU section, and gathering signatures

Can I just remind people to pop over there to add to posts, and bump it to keep it on the first page. AIBU is the most read section on Mumsnet

Ta!!

Iminthecclubnow · 12/03/2018 18:39

Just to say the email often goes into your junk folder so make sure you check there!

RosenbergW · 12/03/2018 18:40

Yes it was in the junk! Thank you and signed :)

OohMavis · 12/03/2018 18:41

Signed and watching the numbers go up. Someone's joined me in the arse end of nowhere in Sittingbourne and Sheppey, we now have two whole signatures! Who are you?!

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 12/03/2018 18:42

Well exactly OP but the TRAs love that hashtag.

Pemba · 12/03/2018 18:42

Signed. I will try and pass it on too.

LastGirlOnTheLeft · 12/03/2018 18:43

Got my sister to sign in Enniskillen!! So funny how one person can make a whole big part of NI turn yellow!! Just hope it encourages others!!

aRespectableBureaudeChange · 12/03/2018 18:44

Yes my husband has signed too. I think the men that are into sport have been quietly forming an opinion on this for a while - I've heard him comment and just shrugged my shoulders that this is the way things are now.

Men that have transitioned beating (in both senses of the word) in a boxing ring is the future - this is madness.

So glad to see I'm not the only person in Gainsborough district anymore.

Mrskeats · 12/03/2018 18:48

Signed and passed to my daughters to sign
Thanks so much for sharing

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 12/03/2018 18:49

Ooh, I'm quite excited that another 3 people in my constituency have signed - it's a shame there is no way for us all to link up...

GoodyMog · 12/03/2018 18:52

ItsAll I was thinking the same.

theaveragewife · 12/03/2018 18:54

Glittermud · 12/03/2018 18:54

signed and shared

Mayday01 · 12/03/2018 19:00

Mine was in the junk folder.
Am rallying the family and friends later.

aRespectableBureaudeChange · 12/03/2018 19:01

8 in my constituency so far - will forward on to people I know.

They didn't realise they were allowed to have an opinion on this - thought it meant they were being "horrible".

Igneococcus · 12/03/2018 19:01

I'm still all by myself.

I suspect we will need to stick our heads about the parapet here and tell people about it (in a neutral way of course because God forbid a woman has an opinion) on social media. Also it may be good to draw it to the attention of newspapers, sympathetic columnists etc. Although the numbers are totting up nicely it will take more than mners to get to 100,000!

rolymoomoo · 12/03/2018 19:06

Delurking (and then probably relurking) to say thank you to all you amazing regular posters Smile Signed by me and male DP. Only 2 signatories in our constituency at present so watching with interest...

Minerva1234 · 12/03/2018 19:06

Come on Central Devon, North West Norfolk, Dumfries and Galloway - any takers?!

whitehandledkitchenknife · 12/03/2018 19:11

Oooh - there's 4 of us in my constituency. Emailed other potential signers.

Mner · 12/03/2018 19:17

13 in my constituency (South Cambs)! One of the darker areas. Hi everyone : )

YesItsADebate · 12/03/2018 19:20

When did the Isle of Wight turn yellow? I was waiting for that one! 👏
