Harry The Owl's Judicial Review

28 replies

FairCop · 22/09/2019 08:58

Good morning MNers,

Harry the Owl has his Judicial Review on 20th-21st November which will rule on the 'hate incident' of him posting 30 tweets that Humberside Police classed as 'transphobic' (one simply read "Huh").
The JR will also examine the College of Policing's guidelines on hate crimes.

So we're planning a protest/celebration in London so we can Party Like It's 1984! Grin

Fair Cop and our allies will be demonstrating outside the Royal Courts of Justice to support Harry and all the other victims of police harassment – people like Kate Scottow, Posie Parker, Caroline Farrow, Dr Julia Long, Graham Linehan and the many others who have been warned, cautioned and even arrested for gender wrongthink.

It'll be on 20th November, outside the Royal Courts of Justice, with the obligatory drinks and nibbles afterwards, with some interesting and entertaining speakers too.
(Location to be confirmed later.)

We are so much stronger when we’re together, so we hope you can join us in an event that will celebrate the spirit and resolve of our movement.

I think XL is the biggest you can get!
So clearly a message is being given here to those of more robust girth.

Maybe a Catherine Hamnet type slogan t-shirt:

HUH

Carowiththegoodhair · 08/10/2019 12:30

The merch is coming up a bit small. I have a medium in both the Fair Cop and Posie's t-shirts. Posie's came up bigger.

If you prefer something less fitted, order a size up.

Spero · 08/10/2019 12:21

Merch is a fabulous idea. But I need to have a word with who is doing the sizing at current T shirt company. I ordered a Fair Cop T shirt in XL thinking I would go for the baggy look. It is however EXTREMELY body con. And I am not THAT fat.

Melroses · 07/10/2019 22:21

Made for you!

Now 2 has some good songs from 1984. The Police were sending their message in a bottle at the time of course.

I’m in reach of London depending on my work rota, so bookmarking the thread.

You should all turn up as 1984 pop stars. George Michael in the tight shorts, Prince, Madonna, Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Of course you'd have to incorporate the Orwell aspect and it would have to be seamless. A nod to Kraftwerk could do it.

Even Harry who will be in court.

I can see him as Simon le Bon.

Now That's What I Call I Call Music 1984 playing in the background at the pub after.

T-shirt a good idea.

Melroses · 07/10/2019 18:04

I spent a minute trying to work out what happened in 1984 that was so good Grin

TirisfalPumpkin · 07/10/2019 16:11

Ever considered doing merch? I would wear the shit out of a ‘party like it’s 1984’ t shirt.

Spero · 07/10/2019 14:48

Hope to see you on the 20th or 21st of November!

You had me at nibbles tbh...

Police decide to take no action after Farage promises to 'take the knife' to civil servants.

(Not even a phonecall to check his thinking.)

BoreOfWhabylon · 23/09/2019 20:43

Wish I could be there. I'll be on tenterhooks.

Redshoeblueshoe · 23/09/2019 18:31

Lang Lang I know
I bet it's 0%
Do I get a prize ?

Hellmistress · 23/09/2019 13:05

I think some of us will be there for the bulk of the day, and some people might just be able to come by after work.
You're welcome whenever you can make it!

Thank you. I can't make this, but will support in other ways.
Humberside Police needs to be held to account.

Spero · 22/09/2019 10:55

If anyone can come please join the Facebook group
www.facebook.com/groups/503217283580409/

Hashtag will be #FairCopJR

ThePurported · 22/09/2019 10:38

I wonder if any of the 89% of MPs who disagree with misgendering being in any way a police matter will join you?!

Is that right Lang?
I wish MPs would stop hiding on this issue, it's pathetic and irresponsible.

glenthebattleostrich · 22/09/2019 09:38

Bloody hell you'll be suggesting a civilised chat over a nice cup of tea and a scone next.

Wish I could join you but I'll be at work

I intend coming to London for this. Look forward to meeting some of you.
