J K Rowling Accuses Labour Of Abandoning Women
The author donated £1m to Labour in 2008 but in recent years has been critical of the party's position on gender.

The former Labour donor accused the party under Sir Keir's leadership of a “dismissive and often offensive” approach to women's concerns.
Rowling also accused Sir Keir Starmer of offering no support to Rosie Duffield over the threats and abuse she has received "some of which has originated from within the Labour Party itself".
Last week, Ms Duffield, who is standing for re-election in Canterbury, said she had not attended election hustings due to "constant trolling" and has spent £2,000 on bodyguards while campaigning.

Rosie Duffield subsequenly announced on "X" that henceforth she'll be submitting all comments to Blair so they can be de-toxified....
