Today it's Amnesty Internation on Woman's Hour to discuss the Supreme Court judgment

[nauticant]

With Anita Rani. I am not expecting much in the way of challenges.

I thought I’d report back - a brief chat yesterday - my neighbour (previously not particularly interested or engaged with gender issues) heard this on the weekend catch up. She brought this up unprompted. Her response to the segment can be summarised as “err no” (with widened eyes and a head shake for emphasis) and promptly cancelled her subscription to Amnesty!

I wonder how big the dip rate has been after that appearance?

It was so unimpressive. It's not just that he was wrong, he was wrong it such an unimpressive way. It was really surprising for someone in charge of such an important charity.

'Amnesty International's former spokesman convicted for distributing shocking child pornography. “Some of the child pornography was found on a USB stick belonging to Olivier Jacoulet — branded with ‘Amnesty International’, the human rights organisation.'

'Before serving as an Amnesty International humanitarian, this spreader of child pornography enjoyed a career as a BBC World Service journalist. He posted photos of his press cards on his blog: https://leblogdejac.webador.fr'

To be clear - that's not the same guy who was on WH?!

No, sorry, I just stuck it on here as we were discussing Amnesty!

Thanks!

Yes. He sounded uninformed about the whole thing which raises the question why didn't he send a representative from Amnesty who was well informed.

I wonder if it's because the MRA's are now having to engage in logical conversations with people who are presenting facts to them and just saying "trans women are women" over and over doesn't cut it anymore.
