Mentions Darren Johnson suspension for supporting the Cass Report. I've posted a comment.

what I gleaned from that article is that one of their manifesto pledges is to disband the army. As the late, great Frank Carson used to say "Its a cracker!". Fucking mentalists.

They’ve closed now. But they didn’t delete many GC ones!

But look, all welcome. If there was a poem on the pedestal of the Green party, it would probably contain the line “Give me your muddled asses”.

Thanks, Marina, my first giggle of the day!

There's an article in the Critic about the event. Thought I'd leave it here as a companion piece. I don't think Robert Hutton is a fan.

Thanks for the link to the Guardian, I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't read it myself. She even mentioned the member who was suspended and why, Cass!

I think this is the first time Marina has gone near the gender issue. Maybe Cass is making people a little braver.

Actually quite a few sensible comments btl on that article with lots of upvotes - it certainly sent the Guardian's resident man who demands to be called a woman btl commenter into a tailspin...
