With the brilliant Kathleen Stock.

Anyone planning to watch?

(Apologies if there’s an existing thread I’ve missed).

I only found out about it yesterday - thank you terfy Twitter bubble! - and can't wait to watch it. It seems that some of those on TRSOH who took part in the programme are now seriously regretting it because it's not all about them and not totally on their side. I think it will be very balanced, I'm sure I might disagree with some of it, and more interesting and intelligent than anything coming from the TRAs.

Thanks

With this on later, the Innocent smoothies Twitter fiasco, and the silly protester at Kathleen’s Oxford Union talk, I have a feeling a lot of people are going to be peaked today!

I think I saw Sonia Sodha on Twitter saying it was good & also balanced

Speaking of the Oxford protester, why is twitter assuming her their mum is a terf? Also is there a way to watch the debate? Was it recorded? (Sorry if this is being discussed elsewhere)

Thanks

Innocent Smoothies? I went to have a look and they're saying they've deleted a tweet. Was it, trying to figure out from replies, something to do with them giving support to Mermaid?

Thanks

yep, exactly that @MouseMinge! They posted drivel “from the legends at Mermaid” about inclusive language around gender. It’s as bad as it sounds. May have been preserved on the other thread…

Ah! I found a thread on here about it. Monumental idiocy from their PR department. If you're going to go big on a company/charity, probably best to give a couple of minutes to a Google search to find out if that's a good idea. A good example of how to completely screw yourself with one virtue signalling corporate tweet.

The protestor who's glued their delicate digits to the floor, or whatever. Simple solution that will ensure no other self-obsessed snowflakes do the same in future.

I vote for leaving them there and moving the meeting to a different room so they can’t disrupt.

Thanks

My suggestion is much quicker, lol

However it seems like Riz is pretty shit at this glueing malarkey, maybe something to do with generally being useless, and has now departed the scene.

You just can't get the staff.
