Interesting interview with Lisa Cameron yesterday.

She discussed her time as an SNP and her reasons for leaving, including her stance within the party re the Gender Recognition Bill.

Yes, it all sounded extremely authoritarian. And the lack of support for the victim was Shock

It was a good interview. It made the SNP sound nasty, petty, and authoritarian.

However, soon Woman's Hour might become a much cheerier place with downer interviews like that a thing of the past:

Emma Barnett is in talks to present Today on Radio 4 as Martha Kearney eyes the exit.
...
Potential Woman’s Hour replacements include Anita Rani, who already presents the Friday and Saturday editions, and Nuala McGovern, who appeared during Barnett’s maternity leave. The Radio 2 newsreader Tina Daheley has also been mentioned.

Not a fan of Rani’s tbh. Woman’s Hour deserves more ‘bite’ than she (on recent form) is prepared to offer.

nauticant · 21/10/2023 14:28

But if she's made permanent you can have Anita Rani's Fluffy Friday every day of the week!

Woman’s hour is only worth listening to because Emma is back! Today already has excellent presenters (although she would fit right in to be fair).

Anita Rani is what my DGF would have called a puddle - wet and shallow.

Indeed @maltravers .

I didn't mind Anita Rani on the TV in as much as I hadn't formed any particular opinion but find I can't listen to her on the radio. It's not her voice, that I don't have an issue with, it must be what she does with it. Same with .... em ....er ...... Nuala McGovern.

Yep.

Anita is awful. Isn’t she the one who had a real go at women rightly objecting to Graceless Lavatory being interviewed?
