What are the TRAs saying about this on Twitter? Or are they keeping quiet?

Largely silent. Although one of aimees friends is on the Twitter thread from the green party statement moaning about the correct use of pronouns.

FFS.

AngryAttackKittens · 26/08/2018 11:34

Priorities, Aimee's friends have them!

The Daily Wire
Ben Shapiro has the bigges profile, which means a ton of mail. Might be worth contacting these 2. Lower profile, but heavy hitters and easy access to Ben himself if they think he might be interested.

I know these might not Favourite People, and I understand any instinctive reservations. But at the moment we are barricaded in in the Foxhole of F. Chat with this issue. We can't even get to AIBU. When it comes to "calvary to the rescue" one can not afford to be too fussy about what colour horse they are riding.

This is the version sent to Spiked

I attach a link to a report about a crime of exceptional and almost unbelievable depravity

www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thesun.co.uk/news/7085352/david-challenor-rapist-tortured-girl-whip-electrocuted-coventry/amp/

The perpetrator is the father and electoral agent of a transgender Green Party deputy leader candidate. The house where the crimes were committed was and still is the official address of the Coventry branch of the Green Party

This has been reported only in the "red top" papers. The Times has only now 4 days later, reported it. There has been silence from The Guardian, The Telegraph and the BBC. The BBC received complaints from several posters on Mumsnet and brushed them off with a boilerplate reply.

These links give the full background. I appreciate that feminists are not always people Spiked agrees with but these threads explain the background.

I'm not defending or minimising Talulah

Of course not seafret, you were making an important point about systematic safeguarding failure in politics in general. I'm sorry if that's how my post came across.

Liberal leaning people worth contacting with Lass's template

The TRAs have taught us that mass contacting works. Pleanty of regulars on this board know it to their cost. So since the downside of their strategy has silenced so many, might as well copy it when the upside could make the TRAs wish they'd been more secretive about their tactics.

Also, screenshot anything you want to show potential media contacts, because it can and will be deleted if TRAs notice that people are looking into it.

Procrastinator1 · 26/08/2018 11:55

The BBC may not be covering the story because of "wokeness", but I can't believe that the is true of all the other news outlets.

It seems that there must be some kind of injunction still in place, although there's been time for the rest of the family to get out of the house.

If so there are really deep implications for freedom of speech. It must be in the public interest to know whether or not a politician, someone who has given evidence to a H of C committee, advised the girl guides, schools and police forces, etc might not be a proper person to carry out these functions.

I want to know if there are injunctions out and if so on what grounds they were granted. I hope other news outlets will be brave and challenge them. Well done to the Sunday Times if they are fighting any such prohibitions.

I also hope those same news outlets will look at how Aimee has attempted to silence women, all part of the right to freedom of expression.

heresyandwitchcraft · 26/08/2018 11:58

Yes, I think the "intellectual dark web" is a potential ally in this.
I have been asking Rubin to feature a "TERF" for ages.
But the angle should be "free speech" in order to really pique their interest. They're not big on the "feminism."

SirVixofVixHall · 26/08/2018 11:59

Like thecatfromjapan I have voted Green, fairly regularly in fact as I care very much about the environment. They were the first party I voted for age 18. To see this absolute MESS now is so depressing. The “support” they are giving AC, why has AC not been removed from the party ? I agree that it seems impossible that AC, living AT THE SAME ADDRESS, in a tiny house, did not know that DC was facing such horrendous charges. That this address was the headquarters of the party in Coventry and that the party still somehow didn’t know seems unbelievable. People are lying to save their skins while a young girl is left to pick up the pieces of her life.

Laniakea · 26/08/2018 11:59

is it my imagination or have all of the comments on the Times piece been deleted?

Popchyk · 26/08/2018 12:00

Amalfi

Is that true? That AC brought a civil injunction against Andy Healey? What was that all about?

AngryAttackKittens · 26/08/2018 12:00

Damn, you're right, all the (universally negative and critical of everyone involved) comments are gone.

Magpiesarehuge · 26/08/2018 12:01

Yes, comments have gone while was reading them (and flipping pancakes) - wonder if AC’s lawyers have been working Sundays.

LadybirdsAreBirds · 26/08/2018 12:03

If so, wonder if it's the same lawyers as JB?

Amalfimamma · 26/08/2018 12:03

My comment, the one copied from here, is gone and I've been banned

Amalfimamma · 26/08/2018 12:04

Popchyk that's what he says. I hope he elaborates.

AngryAttackKittens · 26/08/2018 12:04

WTAF? Whoever/whatever the organization working behind the scenes on this and other trans related issues, they have the power to bully The Times into submission?

TerfsUp · 26/08/2018 12:05

That was the same sort of boilerplate response that got Michael the mod into trouble earlier on this thread.

That mod's response still irks me. Nothing like a man telling women what they are and are not allowed to talk about.

IncrediblySturdyPyjamas · 26/08/2018 12:07

That mod's response still irks me. Nothing like a man telling women what they are and are not allowed to talk about.

The fact is that is a gaslighting lie...so unlike a man to gaslight women eh?

Magpiesarehuge · 26/08/2018 12:07

Why can i often not access twitter but can accrsd it non problem in private mode when not logged in. Anyone else experience this - I’m thinking it’s possibly because I’ve been reported.

Popchyk · 26/08/2018 12:08

AAK, update from Andy Healey.

twitter.com/djandyhealey/status/1033668245511917568

"Judge refused the immediate injunction requested because of insufficient grounds, but warned me against saying anything else & invited Aimee to find more evidence & return for another hearing, which I am still waiting a date for 16 months later".
