Thank you for posting and for share token. Great article.

Moore persuaded The Guardian to run her original article on the grounds that the debate would only take place elsewhere if the paper hadn’t the stomach for it. Prophetically, she ended up writing in the latest issue of The Spectator about the attempt to silence her. As with Tebbit, conservatives have behaved far more generously than the tricoteuses of the left. If the latter keep guillotining their own, don’t blame us when they shrivel into a sect

Thanks for the link and the token.

I had not thought it possible that journalists whose very existence depends on the freedom of the press would seek to silence and bully a fellow contributor in this way
The piece isn't only about Moore but I came back to this sentence. My jaw has spent a lot of time on my chest this last few years, but 338 media employees protesting because their newspaper has published an article that broke no laws - that is seriously fucked up.

Thank you

Well TP nails it doesn’t he? “ Their campaigning is all about themselves. The last thing they are interested in is listening to a woman or anyone from a minority background”
