Wtf has happened? She looks scared in this video, really scared, angry and upset.
She's a trained social worker. She knows this stuff. But she's saying this is her last video.
Another voice bullied into silence.
This scares me.
I'm also a single mother, putting my head above the parapet at every opportunity at the moment, but after a couple of horrible altercations online, where I've been called the most awful names,doxxing on Facebook, I wonder if i should be more careful.
If anyone has any details that has brought Lisa to his point, or ways of getting our support to her it would be appreciated.
Lisa, if there is any chance you are reading this, I'm sending love, strength, and immense gratitude your way. Thank you for everything you have done. We are not wrong on this. You know it. We see them.

I'll repeat my comment from the other thread plus add that economic abuse and reducing women and their children to starvation is deliberate because it makes them vulnerable and more easy to control. Economic abuse comes in various forms but primarily from abusive men who refuse/undermine any woman who challenge /reject them and their insidious, odious control of women and their bodies. These entitled males withhold and sabotage any channel she has open to her for income. They smear her character and encourage others to bring her down as "evil". Austerity, with support from all political persuasions, has joined forces with the law, "justice system" (sic), police, family court, universities, media, "welfare" and abusive men to enable this attack on women who reject abuse and those who perpetrate it. Worse still is meted out if women dare to speak out. Leave Lisa alone you thugs.

Much love Lisa FlowersFlowers

My previous comment:

Why is Lisa's vulnerability being used against her - that's the question to ask? She provides insightful, informed commentary on the deliberate dismantling of the social welfare net that affects primarily lone female parents, and she takes no prisoners - left and right have been complicit in this targeting of women for leaving abuse. Media, academia, politicians, civil servants, law-makers and enforcers and NFPs tasked with safeguarding - all have been shown to have no clothes on when it comes to understanding how safeguarding and the law work in practice as opposed to theory. All have been complicit in the demonising and targeting and hence the economic abuse of many millions of women and their children. And for that, she is being targeted by AWAs and their mob.

I know how she feels , As a semi retired solicitor , know there are a number of cases currently coming down the pipeline of Councils and Housing associations seeking repossession orders after tenants with Racists/Homophobic/Anti-Semitic/and Transphobic views and behaviour on line and elsewhere losing their tenancy

due to me being jostled and called a serf by TRA, and a handmaiden by RedFems who I thought were friends , I am only taking selected cases which doesn't involve either groups now
all because I am an old lesbian with short hair ,and probably look like a sterotypical Radfem , but have always defended two old old school type friends on here !

this is my last post on MN , this abuse from both sides has even scared me !

LikeDust · 17/11/2018 08:52

Is that last post of yours some kind of warning or threat foxy?

LangCleg · 17/11/2018 09:52

Very inappropriate post Foxy. Perhaps best you're leaving? Go well.

Lisa, your videos and letters helped me get in touch will school about the dangerous Stonewall school material.

The school thinks Im a *erf but you made me challenge and question and gave me the tools to do this.

You've had such an influence over many. If that saves just one child then you've done your 'job'

Stay safe and I hope we hear from you soon

Please. If you are donating do so without saying so. I think Lisa has enough on her plate without having benefits stopped. And we know we are being watched. And Lisa is vulnerable. Please please don’t give them an excuse to rain down more shit on her. Respect and solidarity Lisa x

Melamin · 17/11/2018 11:04

I love Lisa's videos. She has really opened my mind as to how systems work and how safeguarding works in the real world.

She has explained stuff that would have confused me and I would have shut my ears to and brain to out of boredom if I had read about them.

I have learned a lot from her.

I will pass on the advice I learned from TAMBA. Look after yourself first. You can't look after anyone if you don't look after yourself.

Good point flippin.

Cuntysnark · 17/11/2018 11:09

I’ve reported my post.

IStandWithPosie · 17/11/2018 11:19

Me too

LuggsaysNotaWomen · 17/11/2018 11:25

Yes good point Flippin.

If you are sending her money, perhaps leave a message stating that it is a gift and not payment for anything. That way if she gets some shit for it she’s got evidence that it is not income.

LuggsaysNotaWomen · 17/11/2018 11:27

I also really appreciate Lisa’s input. She is very skilled at joining the dots together which is why they hate her.

BettyDuMonde · 17/11/2018 11:43

Saturday night drink is on me, Lisa.

JackyHolyoake · 17/11/2018 15:23

And, sisters. the last thing that Lisa needs is for women to withdraw from the domain of social media in all its forms. To do so is to abandon Lisa's objective, which is to expose what is happening. Supporting Lisa is evidenced by us all staying wherever we are in the domain of social media and saying what needs to be said.

Doobigetta · 17/11/2018 15:53

Lisa, if you are reading please know that it is NOT true that nobody cares about your videos. I have learnt a lot from them, and I am incredibly grateful to you for explaining those things to me. Be safe and be proud of what you have achieved Flowers

LangCleg · 17/11/2018 16:31

Supporting Lisa is evidenced by us all staying wherever we are in the domain of social media and saying what needs to be said.

Hear, hear, Jacky.

AdultHumanFemale · 17/11/2018 20:12

Lisa, you are inspirational and highly relevant. I hugely respect your insights and they have been a big eye opener for me professionally.

Binglebong · 17/11/2018 20:17

I am so sorry Lisa. Please know that you are considered amazing, by many people, including me. Remember you can't care for anyone if you don't care for yourself first.Flowers

If it's the benefits office saying you're making yourself unemployable then I would counter that- I wish I could employ you! I think there are a lot of places would like a strong capable woman who clearly put the vulnerable first. In a few years there will be some people who will be very unemployable. You won't be one of them.

XXcstatic · 17/11/2018 20:51

Lisa, if you never make another video, you have done more than 99.999% of the population to keep children safe. You have extraordinary courage. You will be vindicated. Sending much love.

TheHarpySings · 18/11/2018 00:01

Lisa your videos spelt out everything to be concerned about with safeguard in a way which gave me the courage to speak to my children’s school. I care about you, you opened my eyes to awful stuff. Thank you for being so fucking brave.

heresyandwitchcraft · 18/11/2018 02:10
Flowers Heartbreaking. These videos have saved my sanity, helped me learn, and given me such comfort. Lisa's unique voice, courage, intellect, and perspective are so valuable. I really hope she is looking after herself. I am so grateful. Lots of love and thanks. Flowers
CatsOwl · 18/11/2018 12:45

Has anyone had a look at her blog lately? Seems harrop was digging into her past?

And it's wordpress so it can disappear like the others. I am trying to archive it. There's a lot to it.
