Laura Bates, ‘Lying Feminist of the Month’, challenged by an audience member on live TV

Well, life doesn’t get much better than this. Less than an hour ago I was watching the BBC3 programme Free Speech being broadcast live from Cardiff City Hall, when a young man in the audience challenged Laura Bates in connection with our exposure of her lie (in a December 2013 TEDx presentation) about the number of women being killed by partners and ex-partners. Her response was remarkable, and included a request for people to google my name, which has resulted in an explosion of hits on J4MB, where people will learn the background to why we awarded her our ‘Lying Feminist of the Month’ award – for lying about the number of women being killed by partners and ex-partners. We look forward to posting a piece on this in the next day or two, with a link to the video.

    Angela was brilliant as were the guys in the audience who spoke out (great to see these young guys making the point that sexism isn’t just about women!). Mike, I wish you had got your bum on one of those seats, if only to put Laura in here place as the sexist bigot she is. I know you would have done a grand job!

    Liked Angela’s point about diet coke. Can’t wait until young men come together to get the diet coke ad banned just to show those feminists that two can play that game! Once we see young men collaboraiting and using the same devious rules that women use, it will be a milestone laid on the journey of male collaboration. I’m sick of hearing whinny women moaning about page 3 of the Sun when there are a hundred-fold examples of male objectification splattered throughout the media for the titillation of the female sex. Wake up men and ‘unindoctrinate’ yourselves – you have the right to be respected too!
