I have donated to her new PayPal link. She’ll be getting all my spare cash now until this is done.
An abuser is at their most dangerous when their victim tries to leave - this is what’s happening now, to Marion. Stonewall is dying fast and the TRA’s are at their most deadly.
Hold off for now Anna. Marion has had her PayPal targeted by fraudsters so has currently shut down and it’s under investigation. She met her target though (again) within an hour. I don’t think the fraudsters got much money but it’s very very scary for Marion. I’m sure they’ll be another way to donate worked out soon. We’ll let you know.
According to Mumsnet, the Ministry of Justice has left/is leaving the Stonewall Champions scheme. Good news rolling in thick and fast, let's hope it spread up to Scotland.
MoJ will be a huge loss for Stonewall. And they haven't tried to dress it up as financial. Excellent!
From Mumsnet:
"Sources at the Ministry of Justice suggested that the decision to withdraw from the scheme was also based on concerns about Stonewall’s “dubious” training and approach to free speech. Antonia Romeo, the permanent secretary, is now reviewing the department’s diversity policy on behalf of Mr Buckland.
An MoJ source said: “It’s a shame, as this was once an organisation that did incredibly important work, but it has totally lost its way and the ministers just don’t think it’s justifiable to give Stonewall taxpayers’ money."
Unreal isnt it?! As soon as I get the refund ( plus the 7.5% the cheeky shites take off you for using the platform ) I'll be paying it straight into Marions paypal acct. She could seriously do without this setback ontop of everything else. But the speed the target was reached proves what support she has . I hear theres a nice shopping trip planned sometime around the 20th July, lots of people meeting to do shopping in the Glasgow area...
I don't know enough about Scottish politics, but there is no democracy in the U.S.A. despite how loudly we trumpet that we are a democracy. We are an oligarchy and have been one since the day we overthrew one oligarchy to replace it with another (one major reason being European-American desire to grab as much land as possible which the British government had forbidden). The Electoral College and the Senate are anti-democratic institutions. So it is no surprise to me that women, people of color, and the lower classes must still struggle for basic citizenship rights.
So a man found guilty of libel against a women can use go fund me to pay off his fines, but someone who has not been found guilty of anything can’t raise funds. This is just not a fight against TRAs.
Glinner and everyone else working this: I'm planning on dropping a large $ amt into this. PayPal may choose to freeze the money if a lot of different currencies and high amounts come flooding in...so I am waiting for formal verification of the best place to drop funds. Please keep us posted.
Marion confirmed already 2 fake accounts have been made. People are sick. I’m desperate to donate but I guess best wait until the official fundraising page is back up.
I took out a Telegraph subscription when Suzanne Moore started writing for them. They are one of the few comment sections that will allow you to discuss the reality of trans behaviours. I have commented on the Marion Millar situation under their Scottish news.
I wasn’t going to go shopping due to work commitments but am now making alternative arrangements in the hope I can go. I hope Marion can draw strength from the movement of women and men behind her.
Powerful and inspiring words Graham. Marion, you are such an inspiration, as is everyone donating. Go Fund Me - what I think of them also starts with “fu...”.
If you've got the stomach for the Susie Green Ted talk note around five minutes into the talk Green expostulates: he didn't grow out of it and at 6 years old he asked me Mummy when can I have the operation? Now where in Hell does a six year old child get to learn that there operations that can 'turn him from a boy into a girl'?
I said in my message to her, that it was only a few weeks ago when I looked up what ‘wheesht’ meant, and now I keep repeating #WomenWontWheesht to myself like a prayer. 💜🤍💚

HOLD THE LINE everyone!
Couldn't agree more. They are getting desperate now and it's showing.

Losing the MOJ means other Government groups will follow suit. The dominoes are falling.

Andrea... would you mind posting details if there's a new fundraising route? Thanks a mill.
Here it is https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/marionmillarlegalfee?locale.x=en_GB
Great, thx
Please hold back from paypal at the minute, Marion is saying she has been hacked...
Yanny Peters coming up on PayPal
Sorry i was a bit slow there but you've got the link :-)
These companies behind the crowdfunding are as bent as the TRAs they are appeasing.
Nevermind.. she will get whatever she needs by whatever means necessary.
The Scotsman has reported it quite sympathetically, I'm pleased to see https://www.scotsman.com/news/opinion/columnists/scotland-may-need-a-new-suffragette-movement-as-feminists-who-argue-biology-is-real-risk-prison-susan-dalgety-3261397?fbclid=IwAR2-JJK1SaYTka0iyA6lN1dNqrNxqBHE41DS96X5lAfktoVETsg8yNe7sm0
Great piece. We need more like these in the press.

Be careful. There’s a fake account with fake PayPal floating about, wait til it all calms down.

That's kinda the point of my comment...
Great that you came back here to say that.
Whats the difference between Dr Christian Jessen crowd funding and Marion funding...oh yes Christian is a man ,how silly of me
I understand Ofsted have also parted company with Stonewall.
Marion has tweeted this morning saying she has got £30 000 in donations / pledges so she is fine for now ! What a stramash yesterday.

I've deleted my account with GFM. I can't believe how hostile to women's sexed based issues they are.

Yep. A trans child is like a vegan cat, we know who's making the decisions.
There is no step low enough to which they won’t stoop. Just donated to Marion’s PayPal https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/marionmillarlegalfee?locale.x=en_GB
