That's a cracking article. Getting round all the pronoun nonsense purely by quoting women who use him pronouns.

Does anyone know how this is impacting the services in Brighton and Sarahs case?

Was it Ellen MacKenzie who, like McCavity, was never there but the invisible hand behind much of the CGD | Forstater foment?

Yes I think so.

I am quite enjoying the article liine about JKR 'attacked' Brindley. As if she galloped out and walloped her with a broomstick as opposed to posted a tweet pointing out phenomenally questionable events.

Wow, have they not learnt anything in the last couple of years?

I want to ask another question. The "spontaneous" emails from former users of ERCC to The Sunday Mail defending Brindley. My question is how do those service users even know who Brindley is?

Well, quite. It's extremely suspicious that so many have emailed in support of her, within half an hour of publication. It's likely to be either pals, as suggested, or else she's asked service users. As already pointed out, service users will be most unlikely to have interacted with her, or to know who she is.

If she has contacted service users, she's on a sticky legal wicket. If connections of friendship with the correspondents can be shown, then surely whoever employs her ought to sack her for dishonesty?

ArabellaScott · 17/09/2024 06:52

It seems most likely it's employees, or at least one employee.

As for Emma.Roddick, this is who Sturgeon chose to pass the baton to when she stepped down.

Helleofabore · 17/09/2024 06:57

Wasn’t there a RCS reference group that maybe be the source of the people writing emails? Ie. A group of past users?

ArabellaScott · 17/09/2024 07:06

The woman who described working with SB says she had asked to be notified about news articles (a gap in the story omits that Brindley must have informed her) and then she posted the news on some kind of group chat thing.

spannasaurus · 17/09/2024 08:00

Were the supporting emails received within 1/2 of publication or within 1/2 of the interview (before publication)?

'... the misgendering is sick'

Why are they giving me the impression that they really believe that misgendering (ie correctly sexing) someone is a far worse issue in their eyes than their treatment of rape survivors or their treatment of Roz Adams?

They make a mountain out of a pretend molehill and then bleddy ignore the actual mountain that they have spent years adding rocks to.

Seriestwo · 17/09/2024 09:15

When the issue is one of sex, Mridul Wadhwa is male and was appointed to a job which is for females. Gender is irrelevant and we can’t resolve the issues in women’s services without correctly sexing staff in discussions.

Roddick has learned nothing. Which is a bit of a worry given how damning everything written about ERC has been. Perhaps she is a bit dim.

I imagine because it is exactly what they believe.

Anastomosisrex · 17/09/2024 09:50

And also because there is a sex based difference in their perception of the humanity of the people involved. Men not being respected submissively obeyed is far worse than the actual illtreatment of women.

Side bar: If Rowling posting a quite justifiable noticing of evidence on Twitter is an 'attack', then posting this dismissal of traumatised women probably counts in the modern over dramatic nonsense framing as at least 'cannibalism' or something.

Yes, just posted that on the AIBU thread.

Defiance. They can't tolerate it.

Defiance. They can't tolerate it.

And viewing the world through that Oppressor/Oppressed power dynamics mindset which means that only the person with the most oppression points (as per current year 'progressive' thinking) is allowed to have your support and sympathy.

Thinking that it’s the actual female rape victims in the situation who should receive support and consideration is so old-fashioned </sarcasm>
