Julie Birchill defames and racially abuses Ash Sarkar

[Anovaneway]

The lovely Julie Birchill has apologised for defaming and racially abusing Ash Sarkar.

She has issued a full apology for her misogynistic and racist abuse and paid an undisclosed amount of damages. Interesting.

It’s shocking what women have to put up with on line.

I'm no fan of Ash Sarkar but what JB said to her was absolutely beyond the pale and I'm glad she got an apology / damages.

She is a professional provocateur and loves to provoke outrage, but I agree with pps that she went too far, her behaviour was offensive on a number of levels. It's right that she apologised.
