Hello

Following on from the thread about changing the law on rape to grant anonimity to the accused, a few people have started to think about what we can do to get involved, to actually try and change stuff.

So I guess this thread is for suggestions, ideas, and for people to link up to actually try to change things.

So far we have someone possibly standing for pariament!

So come on everyone.

What's the plan....

Surely Mumsnet Towers could RT on twitter? Has anyone sent to them? And perhaps Sarah Brown? Emailing people we know have had an interest in courting Mumsnet before?

Mummy journos, there can surely be an article in it somewhere... Mumsnet focuses wrath on grass roots campaigning? Contrast it with a couple of stupid AIBU, voila.

I am kind of imagining Sarah Brown is off on a very long holiday
mind you she probably has a Blackberry habit she can't break....

I have tweeted to MNTowers. Think you can only send DM's to people who also follow you... she doesn't follow me (can't think why not!) sure she is traceable on internet though.

I read a comment by mariella frostrup in the paper today saying that there was no excuse for the lack of women presenters of the Today programme other than old fashioned sexism so I wondered if it might be worth tweeting her. No idea if she is on twitter though ...
