Anyone else been watching tonight? I only managed the start but then had to parent. I was beyond cringing at the disruption by the trans party. I'm not sure they achieved what they wanted. Hoping to catch the whole thing later.

Any more details OP? Where can I find this link?

BouncingOn · 21/11/2018 19:51

Sorry, bed time going on! Posie is live streaming Heather Brunskell-Evans doing a talk- on the fb page. Interrupted at the start by about three people, one jumped on the stage and tried to read something. Tried. It wasn't very successful. Security were called.

Oh dear. That wasn't the best display. Well done Heather for keeping so calm.

So they stole time and attention from people who went to listen to someone else, how very narcissistic.

AlexInSnow · 21/11/2018 20:14

I am sad for people all over the world who died.

I don't want to listen to lists of people who died in WW1, lists of people who died in the Florida fires because I don't want to, especially when I have chosen instead to listen to someone talk about something else.

If I wanted to hear lists of names of people who died in WW1 I would attend a WW1 commemoration, if I wanted to listen to lists of people who died in 911 I would attend a 911 event. I wouldn't expect those two groups to take over an event on stay breast feeding, they wouldn't gain sympathy from me and I would find their behaviour quite bizarre.

I thought Heather did really well. That one on the stage looked like they'd rather be plucking their arse crack than be stood up there. Public speaking ain't for you mate.

Omg
Planned disruption, to disrupt a woman speaking.
Difficult to watch, but watch I did.

It is sinister

Juells · 21/11/2018 20:48

The sound was terrible :(

KatVonGulag · 21/11/2018 20:49

The beardy woke bro was the most obnoxious.

I thought Heather very kind and patient. They just looked silly and petulant

uglyandlovingit · 21/11/2018 21:00

How very ladylike of the protestors.

But yeah, the one on the desk just droned on... I doubt most of the room even heard them!

uglyandlovingit · 21/11/2018 21:01

Heather looked like she felt sorry for them!

BouncingOn · 21/11/2018 21:03

My womanly soul wanted to give them a hot drink and a biscuit. Then ring their mum to let them know where they were so they could come and pick them up and tuck them up in bed.

I was wondering whether their mothers know what they're up to and what on earth their grans would think Shock

I'd have got a stern lecture and told to stop being so daft and get back to the books.

silentcrow · 21/11/2018 21:15

I have no idea what they were trying to achieve because I couldn't hear a word of the mumbling. Do they really think anyone watching that would be swayed?

Heather has the patience of a saint.

NeurotrashWarrior · 21/11/2018 21:40

Well done Heather. Just watched on fb.

arranfan · 21/11/2018 21:49

Well done Heather. Just watched on fb.

Is there an upload somewhere, please?

SpaceAhoy · 21/11/2018 21:54

I liked that the person stood on a desk was invited by a women's voice off camera, to sit down and join the audience, if they would stop talking and listen to the speakers like everyone else !

uglyandlovingit · 22/11/2018 04:54

@SpaceAhoy

Ah, but if they did that, nobody would know just how speshal they are!
