@SydneyAllMoore That's some arrogance of his on display, saying he "lit the spark". Things had been happening LONG before 2017.

What a delusional, narcissistic, POS this man is. Bragging about getting Jenni Murray suspended the day after she passes away AND taking credit for the start of women fighting back against misogynists like him & abusive gender ideology. He really knows nothing about women.

@AlboMP Why did you attend an event that was segregated by sex? Would you attend an event that was segregated by race?

@soniasodha @bbcnickrobinson I don't know if Harriet Harman's "tribute" to Jeni Murray is going to be live or pre-recorded, but if live, I trust you will ask her why she did not stick up for JM's stance on women and sex *at the time* when the BBC unceremoniously dumped her.

Today prog has just told us we will hear a tribute to Jenni Murray from Harriet Harman. Might have been better to get someone to pay tribute who actually stuck up for her after she was isolated for her view that men should not be able to identify into women's spaces and sports.

@craigkellyAFEE Would he have attended any event openly segregated by race? So why is he attending one that is openly segregated by sex?

Seven hour wait in a London A&E achieves what? A blood test which three hours later staff admitted they had lost. We had to start again.

@TruthFairy131 Have they thought about telling men not to assault women who are out by themselves, I wonder?

🔥 BREAKING 🔥 Police have urged woman not to go out or exercise by themselves. Well that didn’t take long Australia. The alleged attacks span weeks and multiple locations, with police boosting patrols as many similar cases have been emerging elsewhere. A few recent incidents: In Rockhampton, a Victorian man was charged over the rape and attempted murder of a 27-year-old woman in January after she was confronted while running near Yeppoon Lagoon. In Mackay, two women were sexually assaulted in broad daylight in incidents at a beach and nearby park. A woman was approached by an unknown foreign man that wouldn’t leave her alone while swimming at an isolated Town Beach near Iluka Park. There have also been recent murders of women that have simply gone out to the beach for a swim or out for a walk/ jog. Two people were stabbed in the back within hours in Melbourne- seperate incidents, different perpetrators. Labor’s New modern Australia 🇦🇺 🥀☠️

Today is the 33rd anniversary of the day the IRA bombed Warrington town centre and killed my son Tim and 3 yr old Johnathan Ball. Words can never describe how losing a child leaves a huge hole in your heart and your family. Eternal love Tim ❤️❤️

Impossible to overstate the importance of Jenni Murray to the movement of women that changed our politics, economy & our society; that changed our lives. She was the broadcasting wing of the women’s movement. We all owe her. RIP. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Remember this article from Jenni Murray in 2017. Totally reasonable, nothing extreme, just saying men can’t be women. Then there was all the protests, calls to cancel talks, The BBC warned her, restricted her on air, and by 2020 she left Woman’s Hour. But she never backed down, even as the pushback continued for years. This is how speaking honestly costs you in public life. But she was forever right. Rest in peace, brave and courageous Jenni Murray. thetimes.com/article/490f2f…
