The GRA is still a disaster, just more attractive to some. SW would not be anti-LGB, being proudly bisexual. I have always found AM very prickly, but was told she was that way with everyone. Was she a founder member of Stonewall or just an employee? Jeffreys being a professor at Melbourne doesn't diminish her influence. You might have seen her and Bindel gloating over evil in a BBC Four documentary earlier this year.
With all due credit for beautiful successes against the RadFems, they were in areas Stonewall had no intention of working, and it doesn't overshadow the fact that they were still decimating the Women's Movement, including sections with just as prominent people as Stonewall (except female), and had shown they would use any means, including the most vicious lies, and direct violence. Obviously the (few) women in Stonewall would not be lesbian separatists, but the necessity was to have agreement that Stonewall or women who were members would not be attacked.
I read Stonewall's employees as pushing set policy and defending their jobs.
