And it looks like she wants to set up a campaigning group

Was just coming here to post the exact same thing.

Is it worth editing the thread title so people are aware that there’s a “call to arms”?

Kit19 · 15/07/2020 09:42

Yes it is 😊

I’ll ask fir the title to be amended

Funnily enough, had said the same thing. Was thinking about posting the t-shirt slogan with the dictionary definition of Woman on my Facebook page but unfortunately don't have much of a presence. Don't really use just showing were my support is. Will go for this, love the Baroness. Guess JKR would be on board too

Is there a way of getting in touch with the Baroness other than via twitter? The HoL email link seems to be a general one.

KarenMcKaren · 15/07/2020 09:55

Thanks for posting 👍 I'm in.

SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito · 15/07/2020 09:59

I've emailed her as I'm not on twitter.

Redshoeblueshoe · 15/07/2020 09:59

Excellent news.

risefromyourgrave · 15/07/2020 10:00

Oh this is excellent, I’m all the way in! @PaleBlueMoonlight Baroness Nicholson has tweeted the email [email protected], not sure if that’s the one you say looks like a general one?

No, I haven’t seen that one. Thank you.

Here's her email address to join

I'm vety politically naive. How would this be different to WPUK?

I'm in I think but I'd like to know what it is.

gardenbird48 · 15/07/2020 10:21

thanks for posting - I've just emailed her to support.

TedsFederationRep · 15/07/2020 10:21

How would this be different to WPUK?

The Baroness has a role within Parliament itself and knows how to network effectively. Her letter about the proposed new RSE pack to the Education Secretary - headed "My dear Gavin" - was an absolute pearler.

I've no doubt she will have been, or will be, in touch with WPUK about this group.

I've just emailed and asked to join.

dazzlinghaze · 15/07/2020 10:23

Have just replied saying I'm in!

IHeartSusanDey · 15/07/2020 10:28

Just emailed. Have come off Twitter due to the poison from the woman haters pushing this, but really want to keep my involvement in speaking out.

It’s the WPUK TWAW?

BitchPeas · 15/07/2020 10:32

What have people said when they’ve emailed? I want to join but not on Twitter, seems a bit odd to send an email just saying, I’m in Grin

highame · 15/07/2020 10:33

@dazzlinghaze

Me too
growinggreyer · 15/07/2020 10:38

Are people getting confused between Women's Place UK and the Women's Equality Party? WPUK does not seem to be in favour of TWAW. I think the Baroness has been sign-posted to the women's groups that are already active but she seems to be shying away from them.

Kit19 · 15/07/2020 10:45

Ha! Yes I am sorry

Chrestomanci3 · 15/07/2020 10:45

Is it the Baroness organising this? On Twitter it looks like she's copying in @worriedmumofone to all of the tweets sent to her saying they're in.

CaveMum · 15/07/2020 10:50

WEP are currently TWAW but there are moves to encourage GC women to sign up as they have upcoming internal elections which will be a chance to make the GC voices heard.
