WorraLiberty is another one. Nasty fucker.

They are all so middle class and privileged.In real life I don’t know anyone with a cleaner or who shops Waitrose or who sends their kids to fucking prep school. It’s another world that I don’t live in.
Yeah, there’s a thread on there at the minute that’s something like ‘is a combined income of £60,000 enough to live on?’ and there are loads of posters aghast at how they couldn’t manage on such a low wage 🙄 Obviously, people can pretend to be something they’re not on an anonymous forum but everyone on MN either seems to earn £250,000 a year and are still struggling to make ends meet or they live on the bones of their arse claiming 5p a week on benefits. There’s no in between.

If any of them stuck around long enough over here they would know there IS moderation on this site but it is consistent, ie if somebody is derailing a thread or if personal information not in the public domain is posted. There is a clear report button and from I have seen it is acted upon pretty quickly. MN is obviously down to the individual mods who have no set guidelines and can do what they like, when they like. Or not as many have pointed out.

Yes to the touchy and highly offended posters.

The mods aren’t much cop these days, when Olivia was on for example back in the day, it was better and less likely to press the delete button.

No wonder they are nick named mumsnet mafia. The baby names thread is brutal. One pregnant woman said her husband didn't like her name preferences - jaden, beau, sienna, ava, and riley. She got laid into and was told they were 'too council'. Another woman said she had three boys barney, bertie, and baxter and was looking for a B name for a daughter she was expecting. A lot of them were mocking her sons names saying 'why have they got dogs names' and 'why don't you call her blossom or bella to carry on the pet name theme'.
The utter snobbery is beyond belief. Its also true what gym and tonic says above. If someones husband is having an affair they question the wife in a wsy that suggests it might be her fault 'did u take your eye off the ball' and ' have u let yourself go' or the oyher woman gets slated. They never blame the man.
This is exactly on point 👆 made me feel really crappy for asking baby name help esp as one of our names we like is Sienna...like I said I'm VERY common 😉😂 . The point is if you ask "which one of my choices would you choose?" why respond at all if they're not your style and you don't like any of them. MN seriously are vultures on there to make themselves feel better. Most the responses were
...I wouldnt choose any, your choices are down-market, really common etc
I found another baby name forum (not MN) who were lovely with great feedback and no one was rude for the sake of it.

God yes the potential horrors of mumsnet and what lurks beneath the surface:eek:.
You have to tread so carefully there its like a minefield!
Say the wrong thing (as deemed by them) or have the wrong opinion (so you cannot be an individual but you have to follow the collective narrative?) and depending on how they are feeling on any given moment you can expect to be bullied verbally abused gaslighted or ignored!
The thing is though its all your own fault because how can such a group of woke faux feminist entitled keyboard warriers ever be wrong?
What makes me laugh is that they all bang on about diversity and equality as if their lives depended on it!
While in reality they are frankly sanctimonious hypocrites venting the frustration of their own sad little bitter existence at anyone foolhardy enough to expect to have the right to an opinion.
No only the choosen few are allowed to do that!! The arrogance?
It just seems to me a hierarchy of narcisissists nothing equal diverse or humane about it at all.

The current multi-thread saga is very obviously complete shite. I despair for the simpletons who are falling for it, though I suspect the OP is socking prolifically to keep the excitement levels up.

Its the exact same format and writing style of many of the previous long-running troll threads. They’ve honed their craft, for sure.
Totally agree. That one is so ridiculous, I mean the guy made a mistake, and his car has been held hostage for over 48 hours because MN find it amusing? 🙄 How long until someone starts squawking about Classics..

I got an email this/last week about a garden situation. Next door neighbours kids were talking....yes talking to the the op, over the fence when she was in her garden. These brats even asked for ice lollies when she offered her own children them. I think the general consensus was tell them to F off and the poor urchins are obviously neglected.
The only other solution was get prickly plants for the fence. I gave up on it, and came away with a sense of shame :confused:

It shocks me how quickly some of them move on after marriage and relationship breakdowns. Obviously I’m not saying you should never move on, but moving on and moving another bloke in after less than a year is just pure madness to me.There’s no way you have properly healed and your children certainly won’t have even begun to process it properly.

have you ever seen any threads about smoking weed?! Jesus fuck you would think that the poster asked “should I inject smack today in my lunch break”😂😂 they seem awfully sheltered types of folks and I was born without a shelter 😂😂😂😂
When they get told to call the police! 😂Yes, I’m sure the police have enough time to investigate someone smoking a spliff in their own garden and not causing any trouble/being loud 🙄

It’s so strange how some topics are completely off limits on mn (Jack Monroe, the McCanns) but others are a free for all. At least here you get consistency and can shit talk who ever you like 🤣

Another Au Pair one!


What the hell do you expect when you employ a teenager with no proper childcare qualifications and pay her a skivvies wage? (They call it pocket money!) Just pay for a proper Nanny or put them in a nursery.

Has anyone seen that thread where the OP is saying her ex boyfriend has been accused of rape? Bloody hell there’s so many posters on there who are stating incorrect facts about police procedures like it’s the truth, it really gets my goat because they are so confident about it and it could influence what the OP does. One of the most vocal as per usual is someone who is on every thread and always shooting her gob off about stuff she knows nothing about.

a large group of extremely posh ex-private school kids (Bedales, some kids from a fancy school in Westminster I think, and a smattering of Harrow) standing around whining that it was a lottery to get into Oxbridge because of the “wrong sort” being allowed in.
The clever sort, did they mean?

One of the rudest ones to me, who tried to poor shame me on a few occasions, shut up and left me alone after I gave her the nickname of Snappy (which actually stuck), on account of her buck teeth and weak lower chin.
Her ancestor were inbred, possibly?
