Thanks for the update LadyBrian.

Gulag

Can I just say: that demonstration would do nicely outside BBC Broadcasting House.

David Davies stated that the treatment of Venice and Linda (and other women speaking out with concerns about the GRA) constitutes harassment. He said he will continue to raise the issue in parliament

Gulag - that sign is just amazing isn’t it?

Skepticat has just told me that Guiliana was self-representing in court. I thought there was a big name law firm involved?

So fired up by this. Viva.

Do Bellos and Allen have legal representation?

A large crowd - I was glad to be there and to meet a couple of other mumsnetters.

Apparently the prosecution objected to Linda wearing a suffragette hankerchief in her breast pocket. The judge refused to make her remove it.

Good for the judge.

‘Objected to suffrage colours’
OMG what an utter knob.

So sad I couldn’t be there to show support, baby and a three hour trek on trains held me back. Thank you all who were able to attend and represent us all

Want to be recognised as women but object to the suffragettes?! 🤨

Harropp has the twitter hashtag #flowers for Giuliana 🤣😂🤪

What happened? (I'm in meetings Shhhhhhh)

Fecko it's been chucked back to the CPS

Does that mean passed back to cps for decision on whether to continue?

That's my understanding Jerry, but I hope someone can clarify that

I don't understand.
In Jean Hatchett's twitter post, they came out of court and people stepped forward to film and photograph them while they spoke. But no-one rushed forward to knock the cameras from their hands or punch and kick them.
Angry women but no physical violence? #justsaying

I was there. Lovely to meet so many fabulous women. Great to see David Davies there too - puts Labour politicians to shame.

It does seem odd that there's nobody there's supporting the other side.

But the reason they didn't protest us in Plymouth was apparently cos they were scared of us. Most odd.

Perhaps they were scared your faces would hurt their fists, LadyBrian?

Gulag

Unfuckingbelievable about the suffrage handkerchief being somehow 'offensive' - very pleased the judge was having none of it.

Glad the judge was sensible, great to see so many women there. Shame it drags on for Linda and Venice
