To summarize: my beloved @UKLabour now is entirely anti Semitic, admires men with dicks who pretend to be women, loves Burkas , admires terrorists, loves Stalin, gets money from press TV, levels Israel to Nazi Germany & is 5 % down in the polls. 👍

Nor me. I hate trans activists.

My friend is Fay Presto one of the first trans women in London. She is my inspiration. Not self ID freaks .

There is a man in the replies that is doing such a bad job at arguing against some feminists and hiding his true colours that I'm half convinced he's a double agent.

Delurking to say:

Omg! Fay Presto! Amazing. I love her close up magic.

ScreamingBird · 13/08/2018 12:53

Damn! I hadn't read the link yet and thought Fay Presto was friends with the OP!

SunsetBeetch · 13/08/2018 12:56

Sorry, forgot the quotation marks! Perhaps I should have cut some of her errr more controversial comments? Can you edit the post if you would like, @MNHQ ?

I’d forgotten about Fay Presto! I thought she was well cool back in the day.

Pythagonal · 13/08/2018 13:04

I read her tweets as I happened to be looking at Twitter at the time, I think she's been incredibly brave, especially the comment about LM.

LizzieSiddal · 13/08/2018 13:20

That is magnificent to read, She just hits the nail right on the head!

Off to follow Frances on Twitter.

I had a feeling Frances would be GC.
I encountered Fay Presto once in the women's changing room at a posh west London health club, about 20 years ago I think. She was very discreet. I recognised her from seeing her magic act once or twice in the late eighties.

pearlkent · 13/08/2018 13:56

Also, Fay Presto is s great example of an "old-school" transsexual who has an actual talent and career. Compare and contrast with many of today's transgender lot whose career IS BEING trans (and hounding women off twitter).

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 13/08/2018 14:05

Also, unlike the current debate around the Masons, Fay Presto was expelled from the then male only magic circle after transitioning. I believe she then campaigned for them to admit women.

TimeLady · 13/08/2018 14:13

Frances isn't mincing her words, is she? Shock

Good for her.

TransplantsArePlants · 13/08/2018 14:15

I knew FB had excellent feminist instincts and is gutsy

@BettyDuMonde reported your post!!!

nauticant · 13/08/2018 14:27

Are you sure you wanted to post that including someone's mobile number @BettyDuMonde?

BettyDuMonde · 13/08/2018 14:30

Thanks! I already reported myself.

Problem caused by linked devices/photo stream sharing.

(If anyone wants to call my ex mother in law before Mumsnet delete it, she’ll tell you to go f**k yourself, btw)

Melamin · 13/08/2018 14:38

Love Frances Barber. Could do with a few more of her Smile

Wanderabout · 13/08/2018 14:44

Good for her. Thanks for speaking out Frances.

BlooperReel · 13/08/2018 15:18

Well I am now a massive FB fan!

SunsetBeetch · 13/08/2018 16:32

I'd never heard of Faye Presto before, but they sound amazing!

Magpiesarehuge · 13/08/2018 16:33

She’s been GC for a while. Nice to see a woman in the public eye with a reputation and career at stake - not give a shiney shite about being “polite and careful” whether you agree with everything she says or not.

MsMcWoodle · 13/08/2018 16:53

Men on twitter are already talking about reporting her and getting her blocked.

SunsetBeetch · 13/08/2018 17:04

Yup. All the moaning is coming from men. Shocker!

They are being schooled by feminists rn, but they are not accepting any of the evidence being handed to them.
