Lynne Featherstone Victim Blaming

Literally blaming GC people for the threats against Joanna Cherry.

Is there ANYONE with a lick of sense and half a brain in the Lib Dems?

What Featherstone wrote is libellous, as well as insane.

And is blocking people who then point out that that is classic victim blaming nonsense.

Well done Lynne Featherstone. Well done.

She is the one who told me she doesn’t want my vote, right?

I liked a tweet and got blocked 🙄

RandomlyThrownTogether · 27/07/2022 21:56

I'm not quite sure what it is she's actually saying. To blame for what?

Ah yes, the famous email. She's always been a plonker.

Joanna Cherry tweeted about a man who's up in court for threatening her because of her belief that Sex Matters. Lynne quibbled about whether it was a belief or a protected characteristic (bit hard to see why this was relevant - and she was wrong anyway).

A member of Liberal Voice for Women (GC LibDems) challenged her for ignoring what had actually happened to Joanna, and Lynne's reply was "Yes it’s awful - but two wrongs etc. and you and other GCs are responsible. I wish you would spend your time more constructively on fighting male violence - which is a real threat to womens’ freedom."

Which is a stunning piece of victim blaming

She seems to pick on women on Twitter in a really unpleasant way. She had a pop at Nimco Ali not long ago, really patronised her.

MrsOvertonsWindow · 28/07/2022 11:02

Ah - the old "she made me do it" defence. Surprised no I'm not to see a Lib Dem spouting this offensive rubbish.

RandomlyThrownTogether · 28/07/2022 11:38

'gcs' are to blame for Joanna's abuse?

Crikey. Feminists should be quiet for fear of angering violent males.

I had a look through her TL she is a TRA 100%.

And totally dishonest in claiming that it was a 2 part tweet (unless she since deleted the second part).

She ignores the fact JC noted that a police investigation took place, the PS brought a case to court.

That is a real life case of male violence against a woman

Yet BS about MVAWAG.
