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!

YY.

LittleMissedTheSunshine · 27/09/2018 09:24

oh no Brista we need the transactivists to encourage him to speak on their behalf, he's doing a brilliant job of peaktransing joe public.

SophoclesTheFox · 27/09/2018 09:25

Absolutely! let’s give Aidey a huuuuuuuuge platform from which to trumpet his obvious misogyny Grin We all want to hear lots more from him.

Juells · 27/09/2018 09:27

The words 'swivel-eyed loon' keep popping into my head. What politician said that about some Brexiteer, and got into trouble? Can't remember...

IAmLurkacus · 27/09/2018 09:30

Juells I think that was how Tory MPs described local activists waaay before Brexit. But it certainly suits him.

YY but it would be good to watch them all fall out over him as they are currently doing over @Contrapoints.

Elephantinacravat · 27/09/2018 09:35

I just saw the end of this - Posie ended on a humdinger! Harrop was raging.

And I loved

'What do you have against transwomen?'

'Nothing, I just dont think they are women'.

Just brilliant. And imagine how many people saw it.

GulagsMyArse · 27/09/2018 09:38

Oh it was a glorious thing, have watched several times.

I’m not on MN that much, my head begins to implode with it all, but you are a -fucking- amazing. All of you. It’s here that I learned about selfID and had given me the ovaries to chat to people about it.

This sky news gem in another grenade in my amo.

Eresh, I think he's going after Nadine Dorries now. There are a couple of tweets from him about her today.

Obviously he'll reserve his special kind of hate for her now she's laid out her stall.

hellandhairnets · 27/09/2018 09:46

So well done. And glad it is getting out there in front of the general public now.

Only thing I'm genuinely concerned about is people's safety due to the inevitable upping of the TRA backlash and hate. Even though the TRAs are never going to win in the end.

terryleather · 27/09/2018 09:54

Just watched this...my my Hardplop is quite the testeric isn't he.

Loved PPs retort about a billboard making men feel unsafe. Excellent work.

terryleather · 27/09/2018 09:55

And I was listening rather then watching Nd definitely thought I heard "target" ...

wiccamum · 27/09/2018 10:00

Feeling a bit poorly and struggling through work today. Just watched that video to cheer myself up. Suddenly feel a whole lot better 😁

opla · 27/09/2018 10:03

"Even though the TRAs are never going to win in the end."

I worry that they have though. They've got to schools! Indoctrinate kids and you're done.

SlowlyShrinking · 27/09/2018 10:06

I’ve just seen him being described as ‘coke addled’ on twitter. I’m sure that’s probably not true, but if it was it would explain a lot about his performance, the bulging eyes and the clenched jaw etc.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 27/09/2018 10:09

Harrop looks like he is being reflected in one of those convex laneway mirrors ...

womanformallyknownaswoman · 27/09/2018 10:12

The way he verbally abuses Posie by insisting he knows what was in her mind, and that of her organisation, better than she and them when the billboard was contracted, is astounding. It outs the projections at play that are not based in truth at all.

And the fact he hasn't been challenged on those by the Sky interviewer, by the billboard supplier, by the GMC, by Twitter, by most politicians and police etc., says it all. Some men don't see women as of the same species but as objects for their use and abuse. Control control, control.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 27/09/2018 10:23

Yeah - yet another man tells us what we are as women and claims we are being uppity when we tell him he is wrong.

hackmum · 27/09/2018 10:29

To borrow the phrasing used by the good doctor himself: "I don't know if there's any truth in the rumours that Dr Harrop is a coke addict, but I'm sure we can all agree that it would be a terrible thing if doctors were addicted to cocaine."

This is the funniest thing I've seen all week.

Well, funniest thing since Mr Harrop-Shitman's face when Posie said transwomen are not women live on Sky News, anyway Grin

AH mentions Gun Oil and Amsterdam Gold amongst his pastimes but I'm sure his sense of ethics would forestall participating in substance abuse.

I'm so naive I thought that those were the names of real ales until I looked them up! Blush

Juells · 27/09/2018 10:57

I'm amazed that, having seen Posie's rant on youtube and surely noticing how fast her brain works, and how articulate she is, he is so conceited that he thought he could win a confrontation live on TV.

The poor guy, he really doesn't know how he comes across to uninvolved viewers, does he?

QuilliamCakespeare · 27/09/2018 11:13

@sportinguista love how switched on our kids are. It really is that simple. This morning my four year old asked me if women can have short hair I said 'Of course they can. Women can wear or dress however they like.' He said 'Does that make them a boy though?'. I said 'Well... do they have a willy?' 'No Mummy.'. 'Then they're still a girl aren't they?'. He agreed.

If a four year old can get it, anyone can Angry
