Thoroughly enjoyed the LinkedIn CV of the interestingly named dog owner.

It includes:
Conducting equality impact assessments
"Professor of Master in People Management"
Conflict Mediator - from his Masters: "The aim of conflict mediation is to transform a dispute in a peaceful way and to facilitate mutual understanding on the social, legal and political levels."
Online consultant in conflict management

Easy, if the people say bad things then abuse them until they say the good things. Whichever benefits men to the detriment of women is the good side

Interview with Lizzy Pitt in the Telegraph

She seems bloody brilliant ❤️

That's a great interview and she makes some excellent points. I liked the bit where she said people had questioned whether she could work with trans people, given her "dreadful views", and she remarked that she'd worked (as a social worker) with murderers and rapists. Of course you don't have to like or approve of a person to work with them in a professional way.

I really enjoyed the interview with Elizabeth Pitt. It's never been easy being a lesbian within society but it felt for a number of decades that it was moving forward. I bloody well hope this is just a blip and that this case will help us move back to a more secure lesbian framework.

@ErrolTheDragon read the article the person had whole thing because of being transphobic NOT towards the dog the media just used that as a title because some people like you will take that and run with it as any excuse for your hate towards trans people!

I urge you to reflect on the distinction between your personal perception and Errol's actual writing as documented/evidenced on MN.

You'll be aware that MN has firm moderation rules for FWR. If your assertions about Errol were accurate, the posting history would be Swiss Cheese but it isn't.

I did once get deleted for 'misgendering'....

But that was in a thread where MNHQ were a bit fast on the button and didn't realise the 'he' I was referring to was Donald Trump (who had just been elected President), not a TW who MNHQ has invited to speak at some event. I'll certainly admit to extreme dislike of Trump but I didn't disrespect his pronouns!

I once got deleted for commenting that the MP Lisa Nandy thought that male born rapists should be in prison cells with women.......... 😑

The post was reinstated with an apology but it just shows how the antics of so many transactivists are frankly unbelievable to decent people.

Very good interview, thanks for the link.

So pleased Lizzie won, but her point about her good pension years is right. Ultimately her pension may not be as good as it should have been.
