Mermaids being investigated by the charity commission

[MajorieEks]

“hoisted by their own petard” never seemed more apt, if true

Which tweet please? Any screenshot or link?

Oh excellent. As was said above, this is delicious irony

The karma here would be delicious were it not for the number of kids harmed.. Tick tock mermaids, tick tock.

Of course they should have been investigated when they were pictured attracting kids to their stand at Pride by using dogs and sweets.

Turns out no one could bring mermaids down but mermaids themselves. Figures.

lol! Unless you're LBGA of course in which if you're found not guilty we'll appeal cos we're not going to treat you as innocent.

Keep 'em coming Marg, keep 'em coming.

I don't know why it's taken so long, to be honest. Good news though.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Actually, can I just check something?

What evidence can the Charity Commission possibly have that an organisation formed by a woman who took her son to Thailand to have parts of his body removed whilst he was still a child fails to properly safeguard children? I mean, it seems ludicrous that an organisation run by such a woman could be anything other than a force for great good, even if it is misogynistic and homophobic.

How delicious! It was ALL Rowling’s fault. She started it!!

Do you ever listen to yourself Pie?

There was plenty of people lodging complaints.

and innocent until proven guilty?

Wonderful stuff. Wonderful stuff. I am thinking about ribbons… I don’t know why.

I seem to remember a really funny thread on here a while ago sarcastically blaming JKR for everything

For anyone who missed this at the time.

The organisation’s latest accounts say it has provided sessions for the police, NHS children’s mental health service, hospital trusts, charities and fostering agencies.

Oh dear, I hope none of these places have been told by mermaids that encouraging binding behind parents' backs is safeguarding compliant.

And even if mermaids manage to carry on after this, they are now under the spotlight. Any second a Telegraph journalist could be in the chat room, phoning up for advice, or asking about their camps.

The esoteric nature that many of these places rely on is finished.

I'm presuming most complaints came from JK Rowling's followers after one of her recent tweets?

Mermaids being shockingly shit re child safeguarding and the investigation by The Telegraph uncovering this is the fault of JKR and her followers?

🤨

Has anyone asked Emma Watson for her view yet? I eagerly await what she has to say.

My parents always warned me about child snatchers.

Has anyone asked Emma Watson for her view yet? I eagerly await what she has to say.

Oh yes me too.

Shes certainly been asked on Twitter, but crickets so far.

Old Margarita is reliable as ever!
😂😂😂😂

It’s about damned time their downright dangerous actions were under scrutiny.

And this.

Well, that's a bit of good news. Long overdue.

ooooh this is very interesting.

I wonder what the Fox Botherer and a certain male author make of this (amongst others).

Bet they'll be seething.

I just hope the charity commission are actually going to investigate in a factual, unbiased by rainbow unicorns, way. I am still amazed by how deeply entrenched gender ideology is in so many public bodies and I don't know that I trust any of them so look with open eyes on mermaids, stonewall etc.

It’s literally puppies and sweeties
Savillesque levels of hiding in plain sightb

About time.

Ha fucking ha
