@HebrideanHecate are you trying to imply that abusive men work their way into positions of trust which they then abuse?! I'm sure this hardly ever happens..

@Lemondrizzle I think the most respectful thing that both main factions within the labour party can do is to humbly apologise to the ordinary people they no longer represent and then fuck right off. Humbly leave the party, stop pretending they have anything in common with the people they claim to represent . All of momentum, all the blue haired brats yelling outside parliament, and all the power-suited Blair babes and careerists. 30 years of squabbling over the party has torn it apart and the people have had enough. There is clearly a need for a new kind of social organising based on the economic system we have now and not the one that the labour party was originally built on, and it is not for the managerial class (in which I include myself) to decide how that should be.There *are* some decent hard working labour MPs with their roots in the communities they represent, and if anyone still has a right within the labour party to take things forward it would be them.

@Lemondrizzle @Camille by careerist I mean those people for whom the focus is on themselves and their own advancement, quite a lot of whom have had big advantages in life and have never lived the kinds of lives of the people they purport to represent. For whom getting into the cabinet or being the prime minister is the goal, rather than actually improving society. The ones who will make any type of compromise necessary to further their own career.

@Camille @Lemondrizzle well personally I don't have energy to spare for banging my head against brick walls. Unlike lady-brain, the right wing thing is a thing.

Does anyone know where can you find a list of who you follow? I'm using the android app, trying to find someone (the person with helpful advice about online anonymity if you see this or know them), but can't see a list.

Thanks @error - I was chatting with someone in Twitter who was feeling v vulnerable, and I thought of your posts about keeping safe online. Have pointed her to them now. They are very useful - one of these days I'll attempt some of your suggestions myself!

@error thanks; I have a general question, which is whether it is possible to "retrofit" measures such as an untraceable email address + vpn to e.g. an existing Twitter account? Would that protect anything, or better still everything? Or do you need to start afresh

@error that's helpful though, thank you. The retrofit should be enough for now I think.

I am watching the 2016 Ghostbusters. I'm not surprised the boys didn't like it - it's great!! Kickass, funny women saving the world from the bitter incel and the ghosts he's releasing (using the science he stole from them, which they do better way than him). It's easily as good as the original and nice that Dan Ackroyd, Bill Murray and Sigourney Weaver all make guest appearances. If you feel like striking a blow for women's representation in movies, hop over to IMDB where it has a v low rating because of all the unhappy boys whose dicks it shrivelled, and give it a 10.

I've just had a second email telling me that the investigation into my complaint into the #wpuklab2019 event hasn't been completed yet. I really don't think it was all that complicated.

I've finally had the response to my complaint about the policing of the #wpuklab2019 event in Brighton. Ut's basically the same letter as someone else has posted on mumsnet.TL;dr - the police did nothing wrong, it was WPUK's fault for changing venue at the last minute; the most important was thing was upholding the protestors right to protest. In far far more words than that.

@socjuswiz I think she'll be back, she deactivates periodically for her wellbeing but so far has always come back
