Owl's articles would though make excellent examples for a literacy lesson on propaganda techniques.

Elephantinacravat · 11/10/2018 12:00

God, Owl is so clueless.

Owl, the women of FPFW, WPUK etc don't just support women's services like refuges and rape crisis centres, many of them are the very people who campaigned for them and set them up, and have continued to keep them going. Because, ya know, they care about women.

What have you done for women Owl?

Wiki:

"Metro is owned by DMGT, part of the same media group as the Daily Mail and The Mail on Sunday, although in some areas Metro operates as a franchise with a local newspaper publisher, rather than as a wholly owned concern."

The DM has published enough GC articles by Sarah Vine, Richard Littlejohn etc, for the Metro to know what they are letting themselves in for. Presumably they are happy to preen themselves as they take the accolades for being the bastions of free speech.

What's harrop after? Does he want a centre spread reading "breaking news: modern medicine confirms penis found on women. Check your wife!"

From Janie143 Link

They need to donate that £45,000 they received to a trans charity . I would suggest Mermaid

HAHHAHAHAHA

Oh I needed a laugh, that has cheered me right up,.How deluded are these people?

Ereshkigal · 11/10/2018 12:14

What idiots they are. FPFW have recently had several very successful fundraising campaigns in the 10s of thousands. Im pretty sure I know exactly what the £595 was for and it was a specific reason and they didn't ask for any more than they needed.

breastfeedingclownfish · 11/10/2018 12:14

Haddapoop retweeted a tweet from Joss Prior containing a tweet from him which he had already deleted. Something about mumsnet, bigotry, blah.. Anyone know what it was?

Ereshkigal · 11/10/2018 12:15

Joss constantly raves impotently about MN so it could be anything.

LangCleg · 11/10/2018 12:16

Owl is also spitting out the dummy

Keep going, Owl, dear. This level of paranoid fantasy is getting a wider and wider audience and it's not having the effect you think it is.

AngryAttackKittens · 11/10/2018 12:16

All the thread Janie linked to is missing is "and also buy us all ponies".

MyAuntyBadger · 11/10/2018 12:17

I wonder if he talks like that in real life; "Furthermore, indeed, juxtaposition if you will, I put it to you, etc.", like an 18th century prince about to suggest a duel with a scoundrel. Coupled with his unbelievable self importance it's hilarious.

And how rattled is he over FPFW, calm, intelligent, reasonable...he knows he can't compete with them.

Ereshkigal · 11/10/2018 12:18

We are trying to help refuges and rape crisis centres for vulnerable women Owl. By trying to keep out penises.

arranfan · 11/10/2018 12:20

We are trying to help refuges and rape crisis centres for vulnerable women Owl. By trying to keep out penises.

And by preventing funding organisations like CiN from denying funding to those centres that want to be single-sex.

breastfeedingclownfish · 11/10/2018 12:22

The utter fucking arrogance of telling women how to spend money that we have raised. That Stavvers account is a fucking disgrace. Women are not allowed political opinions it seems, or only ones that she agrees with. If we fundraise, it should be spent on issues that she agrees with.

Has been retweeted and posted by countless TRAs

They are all authoritarian loons.

ADastardlyThing · 11/10/2018 12:22

I don't do twitter, but am I right in thinking that poor Adrian's rants have tumbleweed rolling through them? I can only see about 1 or 2 comments/likes?

If so that's rather amusing. Imagine practicing a rant like that and carefully typing it out and re-reading it only to find no one gives a shit.

LangCleg · 11/10/2018 12:25

Up until now the media climate has been positively fawning. How are they going to cope if it actually turns hostile?

The spin out will be a sight to behold.

Elephantinacravat · 11/10/2018 12:26

Haddapoop retweeted a tweet from Joss Prior containing a tweet from him which he had already deleted. Something about mumsnet, bigotry, blah.. Anyone know what it was?

It was the screenshot from here which said something about outlets for rage and 'better the transes than the immigrants'. If I remember correctly it was posted here by someone who was pro-trans and then magically made it way over to twitter as a screenshot to show how transphobic we all are. Presumably it was deleted pretty quick.

I don't know why Harrop has now deleted that tweet. Odd.

DaisyTwirl · 11/10/2018 12:27

I proper lol'd at that Dastardly 😂

Poor Adrian 😢
🤣🤣

grumpymummy72 · 11/10/2018 12:30

Captain, because such words would be seen as hate if aimed at a religious group apparently. But then she is a fan/friend of Owl, so what do I expect? Apparently we have to agree to disagree on this issue - really? Rather fed up of being put in my place.

BabyItsAWildWorld · 11/10/2018 12:35

Excellent work FPFW.

Tonight I'm going to make another donation, tomorrow I'm off to see my MP, at the weekend I'm completing the consultation.

Oh and I'm also off to complain to the BBC again about news night this time.

One small individual action at a time...

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 11/10/2018 12:37

They are very hung up on the price of the ad....

Shouldn't they be telling us why it was hate speech?

"...about to suggest a duel with a scoundrel."
Grin you got me. Actual literal lol. Star

ADastardlyThing · 11/10/2018 12:39

Poor Adrian indeed! I do post on FB sometimes and will frantically refresh to check I've had replies (affirm my funniness, dammit!).

Difference is I do actually get replies Grin
