At about 1pm on Sunday 27th June Kellie Jay Keen ("Posie Parker") is going to stand outside the New Zealand embassy with a stepladder, a loudhailer and a banner to protest that Laurel Hubbard has denied a deserving sportswoman a place in the Olympics. And will probably steal a woman's medal.

It would be great if people who care about women's sports could go along to support her.

And yet despite being desperate to avoid all us nasty GC feminists, the other lot still want to come over to read the threads they were apparently so sick of before.

Extraordinary, isn’t it!

@stumbledin

Oh dear is this just a derail or a genuine mistake.

The march in on saturday (People's Assembly) and Posie's event is sunday.

Oh dear indeed

😂 😂

TalkingtoLangClegintheDark · 22/06/2021 18:39

Anyway, sounds like the ideal way to spend my Sunday afternoon!

Gumbomambo · 22/06/2021 18:41

Good for Posie. Too far away for me sadly.

Is it too late for Orf1abc to change their Sunday ticket to Saturday for the march?

Floisme · 22/06/2021 19:14

Good for Posie.

Will have to go see Posie after all.

Definitely looking forward to meeting some of you. Is there a way of recognising mumsnetters or will I just have to ask everyone?

marmitecravings · 22/06/2021 20:17

oh! this is absolutely ridiculous!

Xoxoxoxoxoxox · 22/06/2021 20:40

Good for Posie
Laurel Hubbard shouldn't be allowed to compete with women.

Sadsiblingatsea · 22/06/2021 20:44

I’ll aim to be there

Tibtom · 22/06/2021 20:54

Is that us being told again that we shouldn't campaign for women's rights until we have sorted everything else out first?

namechangedontfireme · 22/06/2021 20:57

I wish I could be there!

namechangedontfireme · 22/06/2021 21:06

@Orf1abc

Won't all the feminists be at the anti austerity march? Austerity has had a vastly disproportionate impact on women, as have government policies around the pandemic.

'Posie' needs to reevaluate her priorities.

This smacks of men telling women they can’t vote for X political party because of X issue.

We are whole human beings and we can care about whatever the hell we want.

ItsNotNormalLove · 22/06/2021 21:09

I'll be at the Hyde Park meet with my (adult) DD. Not sure if we'll also go to the embassy but may do.

AdjustableAssholeSettings · 22/06/2021 21:10

I can't come but wish I could!

SweetGrapes · 22/06/2021 22:06

Posie is great at this. I've been to one of her protests a couple of years ago. Sadly I can't make it this time.

Alternista · 22/06/2021 22:18

Good. For. Her.

MiladyBerserko · 22/06/2021 22:39

After the revolution Orf.

stumbledin · 23/06/2021 00:45

I hope Orf1abc will be getting in touch with the Trans Pride organisers who ARE having march on saturday, so presumably will not be at the austerity march! socialistworker.co.uk/art/51985/Join+protests+against+transphobia+this+weekend

Posie says she'll be at Speaker's Corner for 12.00/12.30pm 👍

Such a bloody awesome thread.

Got some cream for the detractors who received BURNS Grin

Well wishes to the women who will be there.

We need a secret handshake or something, or to wear something that points us out as Mumsnetters, (a viper/snake charm of some kind?)

Either way, I'm going to this one, which I'm really excited about. Grin
