If anyone is a member of the Oxford Union it says her talk is at 5pm tomorrow.

Is anyone from FWR going?

As a mum I would have left Riz glued in situ.

Like a toddler having a tantrum

Ignore and carry on

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 30/05/2023 17:52

yay, she was able to restart!

Ohyoudodoyou · 30/05/2023 17:54

If Riz is a student at Oxford, she'd have been spying for Russian back in the day...

President Matthew Dick accuses Prof Stock of "cherry picking what reality means".

Chuckling at the thought of riz being left in an empty building after the debate has ended with perhaps a cleaner vacuuming somewhere, asking if she can go home now please

More nominative determinism.

Oh dear. He's (I assume!!) probably going to regret that edballsup.

I think we all do that to some extent?

Arguable not to the point of denying the existence of our chromosomes.....

Wondering if the film on Oxford Union YouTube will include the glue in....

No, the cherry pickers are definitely not us in this situation!

zibzibara · 30/05/2023 18:06

I hope Matthew Dick presents all the common transactivist arguments so Prof Stock can destroy them. The era of "no debate" is truly over.

Villagetoraiseachild · 30/05/2023 18:06

Am also following this on GB news, giving it a fair bit of coverage.....

Absolutely

JHB has invited Riz onto her show.

Quite enjoying the metaphor of the protester literally becoming unglued Grin

That basically happened in Germany with climate change protesters -

(Note, to head off any possible arguments, I'm not making any comment about the nature of their protest but just what happened).

From the Telegraph's live reporting -

A few hundred people have turned out for a protest against Ms Stock’s appearance.

Speakers said they were “fighting for their rights” and took part in chants of “trans rights are humans rights” and “no borders, no nation, trans liberation”.

Activists chanted “cut your system, f*ck your hate, we are not open for debate” before setting off an a march towards the union.

Students against Ms Stock’s appearance said the Union should have made the event more of a debate, however those queuing up to attend the event said they were supporting free speech.

4:49PM

What do those chants even mean? What has “no borders, no nation” got to do with KS? Yes, I know, I shouldn’t expect logic from TRAs but couldn’t they have made a bit more effort not to chant gibberish?

JHB has invited Riz onto her show.

I bet half my mortgage she does it. And I bet the other half that JHB makes mincemeat of her.

They were saying 'no assimilation ' at let women speak. I thought that's what they wanted, assimilation into every facet of women's life/ spaces in the case of TW. Do they even know what they are chanting?

JHB has at least some knowledge and will fire that back against riz's 'facts' that riz tries to get across each time they are on Piers Morgan. I do think that JHB might cut riz off more than even Piers Morgan does.

Ohyoudodoyou · 30/05/2023 18:35

Don't know why anyone would have her in their show, just saw her on YouTube. 2 seconds of my life I won't get back.
