Graham Lineham on Newsnight tonight!

[Destinysdaughter]

Just saw this on Twitter. Should be interesting...

Gosh, the BBC are really spoiling us tonight!

All the more qualified women must be busy

Glinner. Silencing women one media outlet at a time

Wtf Amal don't be a dick.

Glinner has an extraordinarily high profile. Has worked with loads of people at the BBC.
The fact he's talking about it reaches a huge audience and gives the message serious gravitas. I can't see anything to whine about.

Genuine laugh out loud at that.

The more voices talking about this publicly, the better imo. Hurrah for Glinner.

I hear you, Amalfi, but needs must when the Devil drives

Put down the crack pipe Amal

Glinner. Silencing women one media outlet at a time

Oh no, is there a woman they were going to invite on to speak about this if only Glinner hadn't elbowed her out of the way?

Or is this Newsnight story perhaps a result of the article he wrote?

It's fantastic that he's raising awareness of this issue, I don't care what personal beefs you have with him, surely you can see that this Newsnight story is a good thing. He's not speaking over any women by telling his own story.

Wtf Amal don't be a dick.

I didn't realise that stating an opinion on a man who I've had more than one run in with made me "a dick"

Glinner has an extraordinarily high profile.

As do others.......

Has worked with loads of people at the BBC.
As have others

The fact he's talking about it reaches a huge audience and gives the message serious gravitas.

Moreao than women who've been exposing it for years? Should we go back to the kitchen to make tea?

I can't see anything to whine about.

Giving an opinion is now "whining"?

You love misognistic language when talking to feminists don't you? I wouldn't like to have you on a jur during a rape trial......

Put down the crack pipe Amal

Wow............ Well done. Give yourself a big pat on the back for that one.

This is fantastic! Go glinner.

Incidentally, re the thread that was deleted on glinner - he has this evening apologised on twitter for the way he reacted on the Count Dankula case. So there was a happy ending to that argument. Knew he was a good un.

Thanks OP for the heads up!

(It's Linehan, though)

On the BBC?

That’s good news. I hope he manages to get some good points across.

Excellent. Tuned in.
Thanks Graham.

Yes I saw that - Joanie Walsh called him out good and proper. Glad he listened.

Funny

I agree with you regarding the whining comment, someone stating their opinion isn’t whining

Although if thats how we are playing the game now im quite happy to join in...

I have just watched Mary Beard turning woke and a very strange drama with a cross-dresser who reminded me of someone. This had better be good.

I just came on here to mention this interview, will be watching with interest.

Hang your head in shame, Glinner, you irredeemable misogynist

Go @Glinner.

yeah, wahat was that with Mary Beard and 'people assigned a gender at birth'
she's better than that

I really hope he emphasises the facts that 1. changing the legal definition of 'woman' has implications we should be able to talk about, and

1. that as a disadvantaged and underrepresented class, the half of the population born with female reproductive systems need a word that describes them, and if it's no longer 'women' or 'female'n what is it?

I hope it's not all about grifters and opportunists abusing laws intended for trans people. Glinner does tend to emphasise that aspect which is good, but I think people need to be challenged to rhjnk about the ideology as a whole, and not just fears of not-really-trans baddies in the gender neutral bathrooms.

what !!!
