Hope you’ve been able to see all the ‘I stand with Glinner’ posts on Twitter at the moment! There are LOADS of them!

I am going to make a formal complaint to the Green Party - this surely cannot be acceptable language for any candidate, whatever their beliefs.

That clip is unbelievably upsetting. (And one thinks one has seen it all.) Who needs misogynistic men when women speak such trash? But this is what I am getting accustomed to: Young women with no knowledge of history or women's struggles for even basic rights, no decency or ethics, just narcissistic self-promotion and utter blankness. They carry the banner for neoliberalism and they don't even know what neoliberalism is.

Completely agree. We really are in Vichy style territory now. And this is following on from the Vancouver Rape Relief attack where a dead rat was pinned to the door and misogynistic slurs graffited onto the building. They're upper class brown shirts with no regard for women, children or democracy.

and George Monbiot has publicly endorsed the partnership..presumably he knows how Amelia Womack called Andy Healy abusive for exposing Aimee Challenor. If they win leadership the party is truly down the rabbit hole.

So glad I’ve joined the Greens. It’s the first time in a long time that I feel I can be politically useful

They seem so immature. How are they being persuasive to their voters?

Someone should alert Tamsin to the fact she's a woman with short hair, before them makes even more of a tit of theyself.

For the record, Shahrar did publicly call for an investigation into my & Olivia Palmer's suspensions way back in autumn 2018, indeed this was cited by Aimee Challenor as one of his reasons for resigning from the party.

I do hope Shahar gets elected, though I don't think he would have the power to order such an investigation

These are the type of smug, privileged people that boil my p1ss, and politics is full of them.

I just googled the Maxine Peake lookalike. Public school educated and granddaughter of a Baron. The epitome of spoilt, Western and privileged. “They” have no sense of reality!

Here’s the leadership campaign video. Listen to the conflation of “trans liberation” with racial justice. The conflation of the right for a man to expose himself in female spaces, with racial justice. https://twitter.com/amelia_womack/status/1425715846257778690?s=21

Oh the confidence that comes from believing that you are on ‘the right side of history’. So far, so unsurprising. Much, much more of an eye-opener is the conversation with Andy Healy. All those Challenor-influenced policies that need to be reviewed with safe-guarding in mind. There’s more than Bristow festering at the heart of the Green Party for sure. Come on people let’s put our shoulders to the wheel and give this lot a rude awakening.
