Men Wanted...

... to advance the cause of women's rights and gender equality, according to this interview with singer and campaigner Annie Lennox (I knew there was a reason I usually think she's great!). And rightly so - both genders are human, all in it together, IMO... .

Bloody ow

I dunno for sure whether it's the weather but my heel and ankle - the one bust back in the winter of 85/86 and later knocked about some more in the car crash in 2002 - is really not liking things today... And by things, I mean standing or walking... Ow. It's always acted up from time to time, but this level is quite out of the blue - and I can't help noticing the big black clouds that have been around since it started this lunchtime!

Julie Burchill - Brighton hatemonger

Strange to think that if she'd said this on Twitter she'd probably be in jail by now

Oh, hang on, and she lives in Brighton/Hove? That's... interesting. Cos, y'know, that's where Eris was... Which means I'm really not happy with this person, especially with the Brighton connection and this being on the day we get the date of Eris's funeral.

If nothing else I think exposing her for the vile hatemonger she is, needs to be shared...

ETA- I'm also honestly and genuinely surprised that she's writing this stuff in a paper that isn't the Daily Mail. When I saw the link originally, I assumed it would have been in the Hate Mail!
