It was a post which was expressly advertised as being for women only but, three years ago this month, a biological male was installed in it. It required a compassionate figure to lead a charity providing a 'safe space' to help rape victims get through the worst experience of their lives.

The successful candidate was bullish and strident. Mridul Wadhwa labelled rape victims bigots and transphobes if they doubted whether a man identifying as a woman should run a centre helping women recover from male violence.

Blimey Daily Mail!

What an amazing article! I think I may be slightly in love with Jonathan Brocklebank!!

❤️❤️

The only thing that could possibly improve that article is the use of sex-based pronouns for Wadhwa.

Especially as they point out he has no GRC. Literally a man in a women's only service.

The issue for ERC now is that their reputation has been damaged for decades to come. It is now well known that this male person is there and the culture that he has built and that there is no guarantee of female single sex provision.

No. Please don't read or share the daily fail.

Women know your place!!

Excellent article.

Objecting to the reports of failures in safeguarding vulnerable women - indeed, a conspiracy to make them unsafe and cast them as bigots - because it's from a place you don't like?

Pls provide list of approved reading material for soft brained ladies pls thanks

I will read and share whatever I like, its up to you where your red line is

(i do look at the daily mail as well as some other papers and news outlets, its handy to know in advance what my dads topics of conversation are going to be 😀)

Sorry- the DM has been absolutely resolute on shining light on these issues.

For that they deserve to be applauded.

And yet MW is still there as CEO. He’s not going to walk is he and the trustees are too young/inexperienced/in thrall to the ideology to sack him

Nevermind the facism and lies.

Of course the daily mail lies and a lot of its subject matter is awful

do you think you are the only person who sees that?

Aw

Oh come come . You are clearly out of date.

The ‘left wing’ news ignores women and women’s rights. Some might say that makes them now, in part, right wing.

The ‘right wing’ media address women’s rights and their erosion. Some might say that therefore makes them now, in part, left wing.

If it’s the labels associated with things that matters to you.

Please point to the fascism and lies in the OP. If not then start a thread about your issues with the DM as that's not what this one is about.

Indeed or link us to the article in the guardian commenting on this

Quite

Please don't censor my reading. I'm a big girl and can make my own mind up.

It's revolting that MW is still there. A man with no GRC who wants women fired if they want to run a women-only service. A man who won't even point rape victims to another women-only service. A man who freely opines on whether women orgasm when being raped. He is truly sickening.

Who's benefitting from his tenure and why won't they cut him loose? There's got to be a much bigger story behind this. This must not be allowed to drop. He must go and we must have full transparency as to his appointment and this refusal to sack him.

Odd that fascism gets invoked here by someone appealing to us not to read or spread the opinions of a certain paper. At the risk of having Godwin's Law thrown at me, remind me again, Perfect28, what political system in the 30s had a rigorous press censorship?

😂

It's obligatory to call it the Fail, for some reason.

It’s clever, you see. The play on words. Innit.
