The replies are great!India Knight handing out parental advice is interesting
Julie Burchill replied (pulling no punches about Eric as you can imagine) but she has since deleted it. Questioning the term 'have children' and Eric.The replies are great!
I am quite amazed reading a lot of other replies, how many people were unaware of Eric's conviction. And asking how the hell it is so unknown. Also how India is still so bloody brazen and writing the most provocative and tone deaf articles.This is still up though!
to be fair I was only aware of it because of tattle, I don't recall it being particularly front page news, which is an absolute disgraceI am quite amazed reading a lot of other replies, how many people were unaware of Eric's conviction.

I know JB can be very problematic but fair play not letting this go.
Pity.she has since deleted it
She said something about how people with children had 'empty unpeopled lives'Pity.
Didn't she (India) once write about women without children as less than?
This is so unoffensive in SO many ways, loads of people choose not to have children, and what about the people who would love them but cannot have them?! she is just a vile personShe said something about how people with children had 'empty unpeopled lives'
If her child has children I doubt she will be spending much time around her grandchildrenI found the quote!
“Equally, if you do have kids and if your life is necessarily filled with stuff – children, grandchildren, all of that – then there is no especial pleasure to be had in a single and/or childless person banging on about the minutiae of their small, unpeopled life.

India, the same woman who put her n o n c e boyfriend before her own child can f*ck right off
I'll take that over being a p...do enabler.their small, unpeopled life.
Hopefully they'll both be dead by then.If her child has children I doubt she will be spending much time around her grandchildren
enabler and defender. disgusting. I still cannot believe that a judge ruled in the way they did, people are arrested and put in prison for much lesser crimes every dayI'll take that over being a p...do enabler.
agree, even without the issue of being so offensive to people without children or defending a vile criminal, does she not think that young people struggling to pay rent/unable to even imagine buying a home, are capable of supporting children? She has no idea of life outside her priveledged bubbleHopefully they'll both be dead by then.
(I said what I said)
I wonder if she has any childfree children? Imagine reading that a friend doesn't have any interest in your life?As well as that the implication that women who do have kids don't want to talk or hear about other peoples lives and only want to talk about kids is insulting. India is basically all the worst Mumsnet cliches rolled into one
