Joanna Cherry

[Stiffasaboard]

Accused of bullying and facing a huge political storm

Is this all from that GC tweet she agreed with?

If so it’s a terrible orchestrated pile on

Neither the comments made to the nurse or Thornbury are any where near as bad as death threats!

Gcatedinburgh seemed to think there might be some contest over seats, either way nothing she has said comes close to what TRA and their allies come out with.

Here’s the political context: www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/politics/snp-big-names-tipped-to-fight-ruth-davidson-in-edinburgh-central-1-4901241

Thanks Gcatedinburgh

All three have been approached by local activists about standing for the seat where the SNP finished just 610 votes behind Ms Davidson at the last general election in 2017

The year was 2016 and it was a Holyrood election not a general election.

The Scottish nurse issue, along with the Emily Thornberry thing, perhaps can be separated from any other issues because they are party-related. The SNP are known to be hyper tribal - so Joanna Cherry would likely go on the attack there.

The trans thing is different. It isn't party political. Joanna is a lesbian and is now under attack because she indirectly commented on an orginal tweet with the words "Spot on". It's nothing.

And now you have, surprise surprise, Madigan zeroing in, organising a pile-on and demanding a full apology, etc, etc, etc. Regardless of what you think of Joanna and her politics, she is a QC, an elected parliamentarian, a woman, and gay. And Madigan is just an aggressive self-confessed "agitator" who delights in attacking women.

In this week's Private Eye, this is mentioned and it says that Madigan has a track record of attacking women ("terfs", "shitty people", "fuck you") - let's call out Madigan and look at their grubby behavior
