All the best to Kate Scottow in court tomorrow

[BitterAndOnlySlightlyTwisted]

@BustedWench: we haven’t forgotten. I have a prior commitment tomorrow but fully intend to be there to support you on Friday,

What did Radio 4 say?

All the best to you Kate. Hope it goes ok tomorrow

But character? Oh that’s not good is it. But then, judges these days, huh?

Thanks Maya, I'm guessing we won't hear the verdict tomorrow.

Thank you, @MForstater (again!).

Wishing you all the best, Kate. Wish I could be there tomorrow, but glad to hear there were women supporting you.

Thank you for the update, Maya!

Thank you, Maya.

Whilst in the waiting area to support Kate today, I met a young woman not connected to Kate's case.

Her situation was exactly the sort that many of us will recognise and see on the relationship board and elsewhere on Mumsnet.

We had a chat, someone else gave her tissues.

I hope that she'll find her way one day to the relationship board here, and find herself wrapped within the support and kindness of many of you here.

She reminded me of why we rock up here and elsewhere, why we're fighting for women's rights, women's spaces and the right to define our support for women in our own words.

And why we're fighting NOT to be compelled to support those people who direct the type of anger and indignance I saw directed at Kate today, either by legislation, shame, twitter rules, or institutional policy.

I was there to support Kate, but was accidentally reminded why Kate's stance is so important in such a wider context.

Pombear Excellent post, I'm sure your support was much appreciated by both women. Thank you.

Thanks Maya
For you all 🍷

Oh to be Kate's barrister Cross examination of the kind s/he is preparing tonight is what we do the job for

She strikes me as formidable! (though I didn't ask her pronouns or what she was assigned at birth as, so forgive me if I'm wrong with the 'she'!)

You mean you didn't even ask to check her genitals? Bad t*rf

Kate i wish you all the hope in the land that common sense prevails and that you get the verdict you rightfully should

Thank you Maya for the update and Pom for reminding us of the bigger picture.
Pulling for Kate

Solidarity Kate and thanks Maya

No details of anyone’s evidence can be discussed until the judge lifts reporting restrictions, Snowblight! I am also eager to hear about the ‘bad character’ evidence relating to Hayden, but I expect the Daily Mail/Mail on Sunday will gladly print the details as soon as it’s legally permitted!

This is a criminal case isn't it? Aren't they decided on the day?

I’ve been thinking about Kate all day. Hope it works out for her.
Thanks for the update Maya.
