Thanks for your comprehensive update, Dusty & so glad you enjoyed the training sessions. I’ve put this on X to the usual suspects so you’ll be re-tweeted several times. (Can’t really say re-Xd!) you’ll shortly be receiving some choice end pieces.
It sounds very much like we're on the same page when it comes to teaching/training, Dusty. It should be a learning experience for the group *and* the leader. I've never found it impossible to fit in at least a few questions, even in a lecture, and frequently had to think hard about the answers (even resorting to "I don't know, but I'll find out and let you know" on some occasions!
I wish I could be in Oldham this weekend, but family comes first.
I hadn't thought about Mary Whitehouse for a long time until two or three years ago, when I found myself having to re-evaluate what I thought I knew about her. I was but a callow youth when she was at the height of her notoriety, and it never occurred to me to do any fact-checking. Mary was obviously a very intelligent and clear thinker, and a worthy honorary TERF.
I'm glad I'm not the only one concerned by "The Wild Robot". I came away from it feeling like I'd been manipulated. It is as if the studio was practicing sleight-of-hand on the audience; "Look over here, there's nothing happening over there". There were mothers of animal species, but they were not as good as the anthropomorphic robot at bringing up their young. The message it sent to me was "Mothering/parenting is a series of tasks that can't be done properly by messy flesh and blood." It won't be going into my list of favourite movies!
Lastly, it continues to amaze me how men - even you and I - are not told to go away and boil our heads by women we interact with. There should be much more anger directed to men in general.
I should add, two great pieces from two amazing women..Maggie Oliver and KJK. They’re right, this goes right to the top in terms of cover ups and the only way to ferret out the truth is with an independent public inquiry. I posted a video on the Jester website from a whistleblower in Oldham. It gives a flavour of the corruption involved.
The Wild Robot! Sounds like Bambi but with a sinister hidden message!
Agreed re independent public inquiry. The choice of the chair would be very important!
My wife did a good impersonation of Starmer yesterday. She just kept repeating: "Far right! £22 Billion black hole! Far Right! £22 billion black hole...." etc
Will check out that video - thanks. Which Jester video was it on?

Right - shutting up now!
Thanks, Jeremy.
Glad you agree re training 😄
Gosh, you've actually watched 'The Wild Robot' so you can confirm this piece!
Re men, that's why I like the approach of LWS which is that women speak and men can be there in support.
Dusty
Agree with all that Jeremy apart from the bit about shutting up.
😄
Cheers dusty , and Liz , I’ve always wanted a wee coo , I’ll just need to get a camel first 😀
😂
No many camels in downtown Cowdenbeath unfortunately , plenty of asses though
I'm trying to imagine your pugs with the rescue camel, Petal!!!!! 🤣
Dusty
I think I’m gonna need a bigger couch
😂
Thanks as ever Dusty. I’m glad your course went well.
Re The Wild Robot. It’s another example of how we are being groomed for a transhumanist future. It’s chilling.

Another good new hashtag BTW😁

It’s on the one about misconduct in public office, yesterday I think.
Haha🤣
OK thanks, haven't got to that one yet
