Shelagh Fogarty addressing the Andy Burnham issue

[GreyskySexRealistsky]

...on LBC now.

AB: You have to respect the SC judgment and make sure the law is followed.

AB: Women shouldn't have popped champagne corks when the judgment came in

Why on earth not!

Well, exactly! And why shouldn't they have done that, says Shelagh. They deserved it! So they celebrated! What are they, the witches of Eastwick??!

She's great.

#bekind

Some men felt sad that the case isn't go their way, and women (as the emotional support animals) should be sadder that the men are sad, than happy for themselves.

Shelagh: Trans people should have what they need. But not at the expense of biological women.

Just to be clear, she's not interviewing AB. She's commenting on what he said and the issues around it.

Because women should never, ever, ever celebrate when the laws that protect their spaces are upheld and made clear - because to do so risks hurting the feelings of men and those who believe men have the right to do whatever they like, whenever they like, wherever they like.

Silly goose - you shouldn't even have to ask!

Thats true, it's the mark of a big green meanie to celebrate nominally getting our stuff back at the expense of #sadtimes for some peculiar men.

Mea culpa!

Seems Andy has the same view as Keir.

Some women can have a penis.

Shelagh: Andy is right to say we need a new social consensus, but this SHOULD NOT be at the expense of women and girls having to make themselves smaller to accommodate that.

"Katie" in Edinburgh obviously has a very bad cold judging by that very deep voice...

Caller tries to make a race comparison.
Shelagh's having none of it!
Tells the caller they have rights already, and so do women.
Sorry caller, it's the law. It's not an attack on you personally. It's the law.
Caller disappears.

I think Katie has 9lbs of swinging meat.

Shelagh is awesome 🤩

She's taking absolutely NO SHIT today

She's so articulate and clear, such an asset to us

I saw the video of AB this morning talking about this and just rolled my eyes and sighed. They are all so very, fucking annoying. So sure they’re right to give away the rights of people whose sex they DO NOT SHARE. Would they be so glib with the rights of minority groups I wonder, or with peoples religion or disability? Or is it just women they couldn’t give a shit about?

Shelagh is fab
Ring in! 0345 6060973

Oh do fuck off, Andy. I suppose the ladies should have quietly gone home and got on with tea before their husbands got home.

The phone-in has paused for Wes Streeting's resignation speech. Skip to the end, Wes! We want to get back to Shelagh.

Ring in @GreyskySexRealistsky !

Just to clarify: that was from a clip of a previous interview with Shelagh's colleague so it wasn't something AB said today - but it was still a ridiculous thing to say at any point in time! As if women weren't going to celebrate!

Honestly, I couldn't speak on air!

Ah missed that bit! I take it back for now then, but I’ll probably have to tell him to fuck off sooner or later 🤣

No need to take it back - your response remains valid!

You do brilliantly on here! If we don't contact the programme they think we're not bothered and it gets dominated by the sad- voiced men
