Anyone from here attending?

Southfields I'd email MNHQ for an explanation, sounds like they go it wrong.

(Unless - do you think you misgendered LM? I think that's probably against the new rules).

sleepingdragons · 19/06/2018 15:19

LaSqrrl it's a local paper. They ran an article on WPUK, that's great.

Someone offered a response. They ran that too.

Local papers need news! I don't think the publication of two articles of differing viewpoints can be taken to give us insights as to the editorial bias of the paper.

they will only be a 999 away

I thought the police were always only a 999 away? Confused Sounds like they were trying to fob someone off while at the same time pretending they care.

Agree that the press silence is shocking. If any other group meeting had been threatened with bombing there would have been an uproar.

It is just a group of women, nothing to worry about. Two a penny, women.

Anyone else attending? I currently know of 11.

Ah. I was finding the lack of news a little distressing but perhaps they will release a further statement after the meeting is over.

Have fun!

It's not really, it's probably the best policy. A lot of media coverage feeds attention seekers and can spread fear which just achieves what tge terrorists want.

ImPreCis · 20/06/2018 15:12

I’m attending. It’s about an hours journey for me, but I’m sure it will be worth it.

I think you're right. I was all for trying to publicise the threat but when I had calmed down I realised this would actually bring all kinds of people out of the woodwork.

Southfields can only imagine your deletion was for 'misgendering' .
Otherwise, maybe the person who reported your post actually felt aggrieved that your post about Lily was being 'mis-actioning' - as Lily wanted to identify as 'skulking' rather than attending something else at the same time!

Maybe 'mis-actioning' could become hate speech. "No, I was skulking, how dare you mis-action me"!

If anyone here is attending, and you meet any TRA I hope you follow Julie Bindel's lead and call them "Posh boy". That really gets their middle class, "woke", pseudo-Leftie, SJW goat.

Good luck, all those attending.

Will be interested to hear the "post-match report" (in the spirit of the cessation of hostilities thread). Also interested to see if Janice Turner, James Kirkup or others pick up this story. Come on Times/Spectator - we need you.

Kettlepotblackagain · 20/06/2018 18:59

Will this be live streamed please?

R0wantrees · 20/06/2018 19:33

It will be live tweeted #WPUK although at the last meeting the hashtag was hidden!
Hopefully this won't happen again.

website is: womansplaceuk.org

WPUK usually upload videos of speeches after the event here:

Thinking about you all there. Hope it goes well

R0wantrees · 20/06/2018 19:42

The meeting has started and there is apparently a friendly, peaceful atmosphere.

Sold out!

R0wantrees · 20/06/2018 19:52

The Twitter trolling has begun...

Melamin · 20/06/2018 19:53

I find that there is usually someone tweeting most of the stuff, so I follow them and look at the wpuk hashtag after - cuts out all the tra crap.

SPOFS · 20/06/2018 19:53

Any protesters there?

R0wantrees · 20/06/2018 19:59

Some suggestion that shadowbanning is affecting some tweets being visible.
