I think this smells like they are realising their liability and want to be seen to be cleaning their own house.

This has the potential to be like Kid’s Company.

It's comparable in that I'm sure we'll be seeing the Great and the Good backing away at abrate of knots. Kids Company didn't encourage sterilisation and mutilation of children though.

I've been saying for years that this is going to be a combination of Kids Company and the Thalidomide scandal x 100.

Tick fucking tock

Released late on a Friday to try to minimise it. Can't blame them!

As they say on The West Wing, “put it out with the trash”.

BordoisAgain · 25/11/2022 20:27

I've scrolled through a lot of the quote tweets and have only seen 5 or 6 that are supportive of Green 🤔

Happylittlechicken · 25/11/2022 20:30

Even the Darren bloke who got fired has commented. I think he’s pleased.

I’m cynical enough to think she’s gone so they can do a “nothing to see here” act in the hope of retaining influence over the new regional trans health centres being set up.

And they have all turned replies off too.

Having read this entire thread, the total absence of any support for green might suggest, to the casual observer, that mermaids is an indefensible clusterfuck of biblical proportions, or some such.

Me too, in fact I said exactly this in my email to my TWAW labour MP- just wondering now at what point I should remind them of this

In time when this is all a distant memory the film about this crazy time in history is never going to be able to truly portray in their flicking through the years montages how this one woman crusade of a charity has managed to help bring us to this awful place and time in history. They just won't be able to do it justice to show the devastation she helped cause.

Sounds very much like they are going to roll up all the failures, bad publicity, etc., and pin it all on SG, the cries of Weren't me it was her will be deafening.

zaramysaviour · 25/11/2022 20:35

I don't have anything to add... but what AMAZING news!

TheABC · 25/11/2022 20:35

I am more pissed off that she will never be answerable for all the damage she has caused to children.

CaveMum · 25/11/2022 20:36

@ThisIsMyGCname Balenciaga did a photoshoot involving young children posing with what can only be described as teddies in bondage gear. They’ve “apologised”.

ItsLateHumpty · 25/11/2022 20:36

Susie Green has also protected her Twitter account - we live in interesting times.

IcakethereforeIam · 25/11/2022 20:37

Was Darren the trustee who seemed far too okay with sexualising children or the one I've seen far, far too much of?

Wonder what Susie's going to do for future employment, are the Sugar Babes still a thing?

Awful as she may be, this is on far too big a scale to pin on one woman.

There are a lot of mad people out there with batshit ideas that would harm vulnerable people if they were put into action.

This whole travesty is on a HUGE scale. The insanity, cruelty, delusion and permanent damage has affected literally hundreds of thousands of people maybe more.

Mermaids and SG are just one small part of it. I very much hope to see many more people held to account for their appalling acts.

TheBiologyStupid · 25/11/2022 20:38

Just seen this in Glinner's email. Wow! Like he says, a terse statement from Mermaids on a good day to bury bad news.

A steady hand is needed to steer the Good Ship Mermaids out of choppy waters before it completely founders.

Cometh the hour, cometh the woman

Step forward...

Mimmymum!!!!

Cake, Darren was the one you've seen way too much of
