Another spokesperson exposed
In Brighton the other day –
Brighton and Hove News reports:
A newly-selected Green party candidate has announced they have quit the party after reportedly accusing another member of “intimidating” questions over the campaign against a philosophy professor.
“They” – he’s a he.
Tom Pashby was widely quoted supporting the campaign against Professor Kathleen Stock, which led to her quitting the University of Sussex.
…
Some Green party members objected after Mx Pashby, who identifies as non-binary, was selected as a candidate for the Regency ward for next year’s elections.
He can identify as a clock tower if he wants, but that doesn’t make him a clock tower. Or a “Mx” either.
On Saturday, the local party met to be introduced to all its new candidates.
But Mx Pashby walked out after being questioned by another member, Steve Moses, as to whether he was critical of the campaign against Professor Stock.
This afternoon, he posted on Twitter: “I have resigned my membership of the Green Party of England and Wales, and from my role as a candidate for Regency ward in Brighton for the 2023 elections.
It turns out you can harass and abuse women at university but not everywhere.
*they.
*they.
Even the newspapers have a a job keeping up.
‘These Tweets are protected’ – seems we’ve run out of bubblewrap again.
“Even the newspapers have a a job keeping up.”
Ah – I see some sub-editing has been going on, on here. Oops.
(Unless they’ve actually changed the website since the post?)
Dearie me, and wait until he gets a load of his ward constituencies braying at him because of road closures; bins not being picked up; blocked drains; pot holes and every other aspect of Council responsibility. Then he’ll know what intimidation is. I actually admire how well some of my Councillors handle macro agressions of that kind.
PJH @ 2 – they must have. I quoted the newspaper without any editing. I did notice the “mistakes”…I guess so did others. How shaming for them.
A guy that led an intimidation campaign against a woman claims being asked “are you at all critical of the intimidation and harassment used against Professor Stock that lead to her leaving the university” is itself intimidation. What an amazing combination of thin skin and self blindness he has.
