Lyra was a dear friend of mine, and she spoke strongly and proudly about trans rights and sex workers' rights. She uplifted the marginalised and she fought their corner. She thought your regressive work was outrageous. She's an inspiration for us all.

So she had a different view on trans people. WPUK celebrates wonderful women. They are able to respectfully disagree with a view someone holds & still think they are a fantastic woman whose short life needs to be acknowledged. It's strange you're anti this, tbh.
-
Yes, I’m very anti a hate group appropriating a dead woman who spent her entire life fighting against exactly the kind of bigotry they promote. Your appropriation sullies her name, she was better than you.

Well said. RIP Lyra

In a life so cruelly and brutally cut short, Lyra fought harder and achieved more for the rights of all women, and for the entire LGBTQ+ community, than your organisation could ever hope to. Neither her achievements nor her legacy are yours to claim.pic.twitter.com/GI6g2KNCvc

Because the referenced account is a wholly owned subsidary of religious hategroups.

WPUK blocked me -
#SilencingWomen -
They exploit the memory of a loving soul lost too soon, without paying any respect to her words, her ideas, her beliefs. They don't want to listen to women. They want to push their agenda. McKee is no longer among us, but she will not be silenced.
-
And we will not allow them to abuse her memory.

Whenever I think we’ve reached it, they go one better with something even more reprehensible.

Cool that you feel you can just pretend that you give a shit.

Do you have permission to be using her image her work or anything like that .. I highly fucking doubt her family would agree to it considering you are the exact kind of people she fought against daily.

Take this post down you reprehensible transphobic opportunists. Imagine trying to claim a woman who absolutely opposed everything you and your hateful bigot crew stands for? Shame on you all.pic.twitter.com/Rd198ZtZfF

Izzy, what was the post & who is this person?
-
That is Lyra McKee the Irish Journalist who was shot recently in Northern Ireland. Women's place UK decided that they would tweet something that Lyra had written when she was 14. Yet they know damn well that Lyra supported the trans community.
-
Are they so desperate now that they must twist the words of the dead to serve their disgust with trans women?
-
They've posted the screengrab, trying 2 garner sympathy tweets (the same thing Britain First does). These r the people who abuse cis lesbians & try 2 intimidate becuz we r inclusive. They would sill b shouting vile insults but now they are trying to use her death for their gain.pic.twitter.com/vhReRYOBIE

And have just RT'd a scotsman article implying trans people are inherently dangerous.
-
OMG, WPUK are beyond heinous. Nothing but a hate group plain and simple.
-
I'm still gobsmacked at their brass nerve.
