Has been suspended from twitter. He has been a great ally - as you can imagine there is a bit of a party going on over there.

Sometimes I feel things are moving forward... I come on here a bit buoyed-up - progress is being made. And then I have a Father Kevin moment... Keep strong Glinner. Thanks for standing by us and speaking up. m.youtube.com/watch?v=1NjISA-FIIA

It's been 'reported' on front page of Guardian website alongside an article about the new head of Stonewall who says.. 'we don’t need people to agree on what constitutes womanhood...' Grin.

She also sets out how they intend to pursue the trans agenda in the future which reads like even more gaslighty bullshit than before.

Good to know their roadmap relies on fake statistics about public acceptance and discrimination against trans people.

You should also consider restricting posting access to FWR as you do for the Sex topic.

Yeah.

@Glinner

Thanks for not getting too angry about these little arseholes calling me your leader! As someone said, it really shows the depths of their misogyny that they think women need one on a matter concerning THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS.
It's always so transparent and reflects their misogynistic beliefs about women.

I used to laugh.

Well said Datun. That thread was something else.

@squiffyseesaw

He's insane. Have you seen the frequency of his tweets? Nobody tweets with such fervour and remains sane. He's lost everything, not because of the cause he supports, but because of his obsessive behaviour. And he will go anywhere people agree with him so he will make this his echo chamber.

I'm not interested in participating in his circus. And I know I'm not alone.

You know the great thing about Mumsnet? You don’t have to agree with everyone else and this is the shocker, you don’t actually have to read or comment on what anyone else posts. It’s such a weird concept, I know! 😲

@squiffyseesaw

I'm not interested in reading more of his hate speech on here and if his posts take on a similar frequency to his tweets I will be deactivating my account.
We’re all devastated at the very thought of you leaving, honestly. Try not to let the door hit your arse on the way out.
VenusTiger · 27/06/2020 13:22

My god, what on earth have we become as a species that defence equals being gagged or removed? So much wrong with groups who trash reality with bullying throttle and can insist that we're the demon. Graham is brilliant.

[quote Doyoumind]**@MNHQ can you put out a statement to stop this nonsense about Glinner sending pictures? It's all over twitter and is doing no favours for MN.

Also agree with this: this must be tricky for @MNHQ, but they need to make it clear that they will not allow this site to be flooded by literal trolls.

This is a really good idea.

The people who have it in for Graham Linehan will just follow him here. It will take all of the moderators' time. Which isn't really fair on them.

We have the one thread showing how batshit they are. We don't need tons.

Helmetbymidnight · 27/06/2020 13:06

Thats a good idea Doyoumind.

@MNHQ I think that would be a really fair thing to do.

ErrolTheDragon · 27/06/2020 13:05

Or is defending women's rights now hate speech?

It seems to have been treated as such in various contexts for quite a long time. Given that the standard definition of the very word 'woman' is deemed 'transphobic' by a vociferous minority, it's only to be expected - although unfortunately too many of the contexts involve people who should know better.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 27/06/2020 13:00

They also said that he had posted on thread apologising Grin

Myriad · 27/06/2020 12:53

@ScrimpshawTheSecond

A friend is saying apparently *@glinner was sending nudes to women on here?

Biscuit

I think they say that because he was mostly posting at night time, but I don't think there's any evidence of that. I haven't heard anyone report it and the way he was scrutinised I'm sure we'd see pictures fairly quickly
stella47 · 27/06/2020 12:53

Thank you Graham - you did a valuable job of raising women's voices when they couldn't otherwise get heard. Take care of yourself.

@Ereshkigalangcleg

Or you could, you know, not bother reading the threads you don't like? No one cares what you do.

Well there is a regular poster who seems to always gets trapped in threads, you know, like Will in the Upside Down in Stranger things, so I wouldn’t begrudge someone deactivating, lest they get trapped and can’t find the “close tab” button also 😮.
Myriad · 27/06/2020 12:50

Sorry, why has @Glinner been suspended?

I await your examples of hate speech with bated breath. I suspect I shall be waiting for a long, long time.

Or is defending women's rights now hate speech? Confused

DuDuDuLangaLangaBingBong · 27/06/2020 12:44

No one wants to see Hate Speech on MN.

This place has real mods, not just AI, so so report any hate speech you come across (we have a frequent late night visitor who we call ‘The Midnight Misogynist’ and I have personally witnessed his nastiness being removed rapidly, despite the un sociable U.K. hour).

ItsSummer · 27/06/2020 12:42

Thank you @glinner Flowers Star
