Posie Parker is just in make-up and about to go up against Mr Harrop. Please tune in and send her lots of good vibes!

Posie words fail me-well done! No hatred just the truth-fantastic.

Molokonono · 26/09/2018 18:23

When she said she knew men like him would have a tantrum you could see him working out he had been played big time and fell straight into her trap.

Genius.

Molokonono · 26/09/2018 18:24

Yes happydappy2 - yes!

birdbandit · 26/09/2018 18:24

Do you think Sky might talk about Jess Bradley now?

For the new faces, Jess is the top level NUS person, advising the government, hand in writing the school literature, big on people who identify as Transgender women never being a threat in female spaces, despite their retained male genitalia.

Whilst hilariously running a tumblr blog of pictures of her penis out in public and cartoon Ben10 porn.

BoreOfWhabylon · 26/09/2018 18:24

Started off a bit shaky and he said/she said but then Posie absolutely skewered him. I honestly thought he was going to cry, his face was contorted with hatred and rage and Posie leaned back and laughed him and his whackdoodle newspeak.

Well done Posie, bloody well done.

I also think Adrian must have pissed off someone in the TV studio because the camera angle was... not flattering.

And now I'll read the rest of the thread.

TwistedStitch · 26/09/2018 18:25

I love this comment.

What a laughing stock, I wonder what his colleagues think of him.

DereksSexyPyjamas · 26/09/2018 18:26

There’s an interesting post on that Twitter thread pointing out how his body language indicates that he’s lying.

mobile.twitter.com/Julie06945180/status/1044983161883525121

Might be an interesting exercise to go through the interview and see at what point his body language suggests that he’s lying.

I think he was at home skyping in, unlike Posie who was actually in a studio. Hence why her sound quality was also way better than his.

FloralBunting · 26/09/2018 18:31

Yes. Posie = studio fabulous. Harrop = Aardman animations style turning goon.

I am feeling very chipper this evening.

BiologyMatters · 26/09/2018 18:32

Can't wait to watch this later Grin

Amummyatlast · 26/09/2018 18:32

Amazing. I was a bit worried part-way through that it was getting a bit tit for tat, but she absolutely nailed at it the end, and he seemed struck dumb by it.

SleepFreeZone · 26/09/2018 18:33

I’ve just managed to watch it and Posie you were fucking brilliant woman!!! I applaud you. It was always going to be an incredibly hard debate with someone as ridiculous as Dr Harrop.

He personally feels unsafe bubs bloody poster does he. My god how do these snowflakes make it through the day!?

I've just gone through the entire Sky news twitter thread and pulled up the profiles of the group of people who disagree with Posie:

5 stated TW on their twitter bio or in tags on their own posts
2 who have photos or tweets using terms like TERF or bigot in relation to Posie.
2 account who have clear no info either way
9 in total.

The other 161 tweets (total at time of tallying up) are all in 100% agreement with Posie.

nicenewdusters · 26/09/2018 18:35

Sweary that's so good to hear. I'm sick of living in a real time version of The Emperor's New Clothes. Harrup saying how that poster makes people feel scared, but that guy admitting he and his colleagues are being bullied to deny certain truths. That's proper scary.

That's just it, as Posie said, truths. If we don't have those we have nothing.

WomanLifeIsGoodish · 26/09/2018 18:35

Delurking to say that was wonderful to watch. Posie - you keep your face perfectly calm and impassive and that make an EXCELLENT talking head.

Honestly, you should be very proud of that interview.

Off to read the sky news twitter comments with a smirk.

Thank you, sincerely, all you wonderful adult human females.

Writersblock2 · 26/09/2018 18:36

There’s need hint I can add I haven’t said elsewhere. Just lots and lots and lots of admiration for Posie. Get in there!

OvaHere · 26/09/2018 18:36

I just rewatched the video. His face at the end when Posie pointed out that the response from men like him is exactly why she did it is a picture to behold. You can see the penny drop.

Greenfliesarenice · 26/09/2018 18:38

He knew at the end he had no comeback, he really looked like he was going to cry. His eyes went all wild and staring at one point, he knew he was beaten.

Very well done to Posie Parker, you were superb.

vaginafetishist · 26/09/2018 18:39

He reminds me of Gary Barlow.

Great work Posie.

placemats · 26/09/2018 18:39

I think Harrop is going to need a better plan. Or maybe just not speak. In public.

From the twitter thread, THIS is the info schools need before paying mermaids for their services. Thank you Posie and the daft Dr for getting this info out:

Oh dear.

I don’t think today panned out the way the doctor intended.

hermionegranger · 26/09/2018 18:43

The arrogance of that man astounds and disgusts me. His rage and contempt at this issue is really very concerning; he is far more of a danger to society than dictionary definitions are.

Posie, thank you. Brilliant last few words there, succinctly closing up the trap that he had sauntered 'heroically' into.

placemats · 26/09/2018 18:44

From the twitter link above specific to Harrop:

You are a disgrace to your profession and really aren’t helping the trans community by stifling debate & censoring women.
