I'd like to apologise to @JimMFelton. Today I tweeted that in 2020 he made a union cancel a workshop that would have helped thousands of working mums who were suffering in the pandemic. There's no evidence he personally got the workshop cancelled, all he did was tweet the
union tweets from men who strongly objected to the workshop taking place and voiced his own concerns to them. These men held the belief Mumsnet is a 'transphobic' site. @JimMFelton called me a slur a UK judge has said is used to demean women, but I will not hold this against him. ImageImageImage
I had felt that @JimMFelton's multiple tweets to the union and his verified status had swayed them, but I now see it was a collaboration between several men that led to GMB Union cancelling the support for working mothers in a pandemic. Sorry for any embarrassment caused. Image

Just to clarify, @JimMFelton did not call me the slur (terf) directly. As shown in the tweet in this thread he was agreeing with another man who called me a terf.

I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who had my back with Felton's sinister threatening, thank you to everyone who tweeted about his tweets to GMB Union. I had people offering legal advice, and even Index on Censorship offered help. There is a serious effort to
silence women who 'step out of line' by pointing out men's actions around 'trans rights'. Their aggressive push for this to the detriment of women has not gone unnoticed by many groups supporting human and equal rights. If Felton felt his multiple tweets to GMB in 2020 were being
misconstrued it would have been the ideal time following my tweet to explain his actions instead of claiming it was 'entirely untrue'. I deleted my original tweet and put up one saying he tweeted GMB in 2020 and agreed with a man calling me terf.
