Comedian and writer Jen Ives has spoken out after coming under abuse again online. While attending a LGB Alliance conference in October last year, Jen was repeatedly called a "pervert" and was labelled as "mentally ill" by an attendee of the event.
A video of the incident, which Jen shared on Twitter, has amassed over one million views and has raised questions surrounding the nature of the charity's conferences and meet-ups. You can learn more about that here. The LGB Alliance, which says it is dedicated to lesbian, gay and bisexual individuals, has previously been at the forefront of a number of controversies and public scrutiny. Many prominent transgender activists and members of the LGBT+ community claim the LGB Alliance "disregards trans people" and aims to sideline the group from LGBT+ activism.
