Article in today’s telegraph criticising Jane Garvey’s failure to challenge super woke guests in a conversation around “allyship”. I didn’t hear the segment - it was last Friday apparently, and called something like “Standing up for your Mates”.
An extract from the article:
“... she nodded along with every woke word her guests said. Garvey forgot how to be a journalist and came off like a Loose Women host, throwing her guests inane lowballs.
These included gems such as..."Daniellé, do you ever get tired of feeling an obligation to speak out?" (Dash said she may be black, a woman and queer, but she recognised that there were people even more marginalised than her and she never got tired of speaking out on their behalf); "Daniellé, do you feel that, far from improving, things might actually be getting worse?" (to which Dash replied, inevitably, "yes", especially in terms of trans people); and, finally, "Chloe, doing nothing is not going to get us anywhere is it?" Chloe confirmed and recommended everyone start with upbraiding their friends and family.
Why didn’t Garvey interrogate her subjects? I would have liked Garvey to ask Laws if she’d been an ally to Rowling when the author was burnt on the Twitter stake. Or asked Brave – who claims he has a “zero tolerance rule” for misogyny - how he squares that with the pictures he tweets of half-naked women, twerking or being called ‘Thotet’ (slang for slut?).”
