You'll all have seen the news from yesterday about women attending a lawful rally to talk about their lives and political views being abused by a mob, pursued through the streets of Brighton by said mob and having to hide in a shop to await police protection to get away? No?

I'd post a link to the news story, but apparently, women being followed and threatened by masked thugs screaming abuse at them through loud-hailers, despite a big police presence, isn't news.

Luckily the evidence is on X and YouTube. Isn't it fascists who try to shut down free speech?

In some ways, of course, it isn't news because this is what happens so frequently at LWS rallies.

It's not news to the women who attend. It would have been to anyone who relies on the BBC, ITV, C4, Sky, The Guardian, The Independent, The Metro etc for news though. They don't report it, in my opinion, because the facts don't match the dishonet narrative they are promoting.

And as Prof D might have it, Kellie Jay Keen and all the women who speak are just anti trans.

Women nurses being forced to change in the presence of men who say they are women, and getting disciplined for complaining about it. Ffs!

So you are happy with inaccurate reporting

I'm happy with not reporting facts that are not relevant to the story.

My employment tribunal claim against the Insolvency Service has been settled. To my satisfaction.

Gender identity ideology isn't just costing vulnerable people their mental and physical health, and politicians and journalists their integrity, and victimised women who speak up their livelihoods.

It's a (currently state-sponsored) cult.

Glad you got a satisfactory outcome, Christine. Shocking that it's been an issue.

Thank you. It's a massive relief that my personal nightmare is over.

That Keir Starmer has appointed two women who claim to not know what a woman is to oversee women's rights is disappointing, but not unexpected.

I remember the first time I watched that having to replay it a couple of times, as I was sure I was missing something because obviously she couldn't have possibly said it.

Not really time to find out but then given there was no evidence for the claim that it did cause suicide, despite some witless Labour MPs, amongst others, arguing that there was, the lack of evidence for experimenting on children is not a surprise.
