I just watched Graham’s video tonight where he says he’s taking a break from Twitter over Xmas and I realised that a) we are going to miss him hugely and b) he must be in need of some headspace. The guy is a fucking legend and has taken on this fight to much cost to his reputation, not to mention personal life. I feel such love for the man because he is the ONLY ‘celebrity’ who’s vocal on Twitter who seems to feel as aggrieved and as passionate as I do! It breaks my heart that it might be getting too much for him because if he bowed out I’d feel like they’d won.

Graham, I hope you have a peaceful break over Xmas because if anyone deserves some down time it’s you you bloody ledge.

Thank you so much for all that you do.

❤️

Thanks Graham.

So many of the younger comedians (esp female - c.f. Guilty feminist crew) are virtue signalling their “woke” credentials and have drunk the kool aid/swallowed the inclusivityFirst pill that it must be pretty lonely for Glinner.
We appreciate you.

Have a very good break Glinner and Thank you for all you do.

I’ve had to delete Twitter, I was getting bloody depressed by the goings on, and found it never ending and so depressing. And Glinner has been so attacked, I don’t know how he and others like him, carry on.

Thanks Glinner, you truly are an ally. I agree with the OP. I admire him immensly, but it's fair to say this is taking its toll.

He is the only celebrity taking the hit for this. Where is everybody to take some of the load from Graham? I get frustrated that the likes of Caitlin Moran are off making quips about feminism, while this battle goes on in front of their eyes. I still believe that if a large volume of celebrities stood up in unison then there would be strength in numbers and influence to call this out.

If feels like we are in a parallel universe, a surreal moment from one of Graham's show.

If you're reading this, Graham. Thank you for everything you do. Enjoy a restful Christmas with your family and don't let the bastards grind you down.

I watched his message last night and was really moved by it. For him to stand shoulder to shoulder with women in spite of what's happened to him and his family is amazing. He just gets it. Despite him thinking otherwise he comes across so well and is a beacon of hope in all this madness. Thank you for everything you've done Glinner, I wish you and your family a very happy, peaceful Christmas.

I watched the video as well, will join you in raising a glass to him. Yes he really does SEE the cult for what it is.

Thank you so much Glinner. Don't blame you.WineCakeGin[santa]Tardis

I'm going to fill my boots with father ted this Xmas (as Jenni Murray said she does this week ;) )

Xmas Smile

Ah yeh, a man who GETS it, totally GETS it. It is such a relief to know they exist. So many lefty so called feminist men are nothing more than frothing misogynists, pro porn and anti women.

Have a great Xmas @Glinner, see you next year you bloody hero.

MsLToe · 15/12/2018 02:08

Yes I watched this and thought he seemed really stressed. Which is no wonder. I have so much respect and gratitude to the man for sticking his head above the parapet where so many are too cowardly.

I just really hope he returns as we have a powerful ally in him, given his high profile and that you can tell he really does care about this.

SeaWitchly · 15/12/2018 02:05

Thank you Glinner, we all appreciate you standing shoulder to shoulder with us in speaking out against the lunacy of the TRAs.
Hope you have a peaceful and relaxing Christmas break xx

HumberElla · 15/12/2018 02:01

Absolutely. I’ll raise a glass of Christmas cheer to you too, Glinner. Peace, light and good health to you and yours.
