You making the assumption that the trolls and nastiness is coming from one source.
That is a bad mistake on your part.

Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!

Sounds about right from here, Labour MP dares to tell the truth who then received threats from those who live in Labour fantasy land.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan has said it is "unacceptable that anybody feels unsafe" going to the Labour conference, following reports MP Rosie Duffield will miss the event on security advice.

Ms Duffield, the Labour MP for Canterbury, has reportedly pulled out of attending her party's gathering in Brighton later this week amid online threats from transgender activists, according to The Sunday Times.

She told the newspaper: "We have had Labour MPs who have had to have security at conference over the past few years, and I didn't want that sort of attention or to become the story. I just thought it was better for everyone if I quietly stayed away."

Asked on the BBC's The Andrew Marr Show whether "someone who thinks that only women have a cervix" is welcome at conference, Mr Khan said: "They are. One of the things about the Labour Party is it's a chance to debate, discuss, have disagreement in a respectful way.

"It's unacceptable that anybody feels unsafe going to the Labour Party conference, whether it's Rosie Duffield, whether it's journalists or anybody else.

I think you and I need to stop watching the same TV stuff !!


The most ludicrous part of the whole thing is her statement that she thought it best to "quietly stay away" - a statement made to GB News !!
