Link here

They've ID'd one of the attackers & it looks to me as though there's a pattern of behaviour emerging for that person...

Im shocked but not surprised that there's not been a stronger condemnation of this incident & those involved. They're clearly identifiable & seem to be escaping widespread criticism & condemnation.

What does 'seriously hurt' mean though 'AreYou*

This was a threatening attack on a woman, who was specifically targeted. They knew where she had gone previously, they knew what she looked like, they knew she would be there.

Stalking is not to be taken lightly. It's very serious.

That's how it goes in these lefty organisations in my experience: woman gets verbally abused by men for having an opinion - everybody else looks on politely like "solidarity? Wtf is that?" I speak from bitter experience.

I would like to bring this up in the next CLP meeting in that as a CLP we write in solidarity of this woman who was stalked.

Something along the lines of:

This CLP is against the actions of these people towards Paula to be antithetical to the aims of all trade union members to freely participate at a picket line.

Where should it go to though?

Some really good quotes on there. Heartening to see a move from the 'we need to respect all types of women' nonsense!

I mean injured or worse Elendon. I’m not minimising what’s already happened to the two women who’ve been assaulted.

Tanis Wood is a fucking aggressive knob. I'm ashamed of those handmaidens though. Idiotic
