FFS don't they get bored being complete dickheads?

Kat everybody needs a hobby

I can't find any mention of this talk on Leeds Library's website under 'events'. Has it been removed? Shame, I thought I might go.

It comes up on a Google search - and is sold out...

I hope Leeds do not repeat their woman silencing ways and crumble because men say so...

At least the library haven't backed down for now.

What utterly tedious people.

Glad to see it's still on ColdFingered, at the moment at least, and you've saved me a wasted trip. I must go and have a nosey round that library one day though.

I'm so sick of Leeds' TRAs - though it doesn't look like they'll get their way this time.

I was just going to post your letter here Jonny, but you beat me to it!

It's brilliant, as usual. Thank you for writing it. You are a true friend and ally to women.

Really excellent letter, thank you.

Last time the noplatformed jenni I bought her book A history of the world in 21 women (would recommend).

Great letter Jonny, thanks for that.

Johnny, it's perfect. Thank you.

Great letter Johnny, so pleased you’ve directly addressed the misuse of the word hate.

Great letter Jonny

Thanks Jonny

Leeds.

Only red-light district in the country.

Savile.

West Yorkshire police.

Delightful place...

And yes, brilliant letter by Jonny.

Thank you Johnny.

And what a great even handed response from Carl Hutton, chair of Leeds Lit Fest steering group and CEO of The Leeds Library. The tide is indeed turning and the previously ‘woke’ are finally waking up, to this nonsense.

Leeds Library is a private members library and they hold events on a wide variety of themes. I doubt very much that they will bow to the pressure.

Brilliant letter thanks. Really captures the zeitgeist

Mesmac again...a sexual health charity set up for men who have sex with men. Seemingly happy to supply on-demand misogyny across Yorkshire, too.

Good letter from Johnny.

Jonny BRILL!
Thank you

Bright side, everytime the tedious twats tantrum they peak another thousand.

Thank you @JonnyBest - fantastic piece.

Brilliant letter - let's hope it will be shared far and wide. Wonder if the BBC will report it?

Last time the noplatformed jenni I bought her book A history of the world in 21 women (would recommend).

Me too. Might have to buy it as a gift for someone every time she's no platformed.
