I know what you mean. I extend my liking to women politicians too. But concentrating on Lily I think of her as the nations conscience. Did you see that picture of her sat on the stool by the way ? I think it split opinion a little
Split opinion?Thst split looked like an Irish Wolfhound that'd been shot in the throat with a .50cal!

Now she's come out as the victim after her twitter rant last night, reading the article above isn't quite how I remembered how it went down last night when I was reading her tweets.
Her abuse at the hands of cruel twitterers has been picked up here too:

Regarding horrible tweets, I don't know why these "celebs" don't just ignore them, I would, if you start bleating on and telling all and sundry about it, it just invites more as the kind of people that do it thrive on the fact that they know it bothers the person who they are tweeting about.

Keeps them in the news and public eye though doesn't it. No such thing as bad publicity and all that. I haven't read the tweets in question but I do wonder what kind of person would torment someone because they had a stillborn child. The level of callous cruelty you would need to exhibit not to feel empathetic towards absolutely anyone who had been through that experience is just incomprehensible.

You really do need to read the tweets (before she started deleting hers), and just not believe the highly edited version of the story in the papers.Clearly her side only, supplied with the benefit of hind sight and some thought as how she could make it play in the press.
A bit of googling should convince you that once again she jumped in with both feet, and didn't think for a second about what she was saying.

It seems like the proliferation of fake news continues. Pretty much every major news outlet is running a copy and paste version of the original story, which is doctored to feature some rather distasteful tweets that Allen received but none that she sent out, which have since been deleted. The media spin paints Allen as having been a victim when the truth seems to be that there was vitriol going back and forth.
Her comments over the weekend about her hatred and prejudice towards the elderly were extremely offensive. I am not comfortable with such encouragement to hate an entire group of people such as she espouses.

Yes, there was an orchestrated conspiracy by dreaded MSM to keep hard working, truth seeking from finding out the real, the most beautiful, the biggest truth.

I am not comfortable with such encouragement to hate an entire group of people such as she espouses.
