It was West Yorkshire where she was threatened with being arrested, there have been complaints to the Electoral Commission about her being openly homophobic.

What did she say?

Imnobody4 · 27/06/2024 23:21

She's committed a tone crime, should really watch her step and know her place.

Datun · 27/06/2024 23:17

lol. He told KJK he didn't like her tone.

There's another

Quote from Louise McDonald: "here at least 1 TRA chief inspector in South Yorkshire stasi so p.c. fragile fuck likely got troon mates"

She's throwing around "tr*n" and called an officer "fragile fck". Maybe it's time to stop defending her huh?

Redshoeblueshoe · 27/06/2024 23:13

Well are they going to arrest all of the Workers Party ? Did anyone hear George Galloway's homophobic rant ? I assumed it was his party's policy

Datun · 27/06/2024 23:04

And every TRA and proponent of gender ideology.

And don't get me started on Nancy lesbians-are-sexual-racists Kelly.

We're going to need a considerably bigger cell.

CassieMaddox · 27/06/2024 23:03

Just listened to KJK call with the police. What a plonker she is. Being arsey with police officers is never a good idea.
She seems to be spending a lot of time goading police/security guards at the moment. Not sure why.

Christinapple · 27/06/2024 22:59

Here are two archives of her being openly transphobic

Ooh, if people can be arrested for homophobia, then stonewall are toast.

CassieMaddox · 27/06/2024 22:58

I wonder if she gave the leaflet directly to someone rather than posting it.
Can imagine if she gave it to someone trans who had already had a run in with her they may have felt it was harassment.
Wait and see I guess

Obviously hard to comment as no full details yet, but ...

Assuming an individual complained to the Police, who responded by talking about arresting her, they are going to be on dodgy grounds.

Assuming it is the leaflet of the PoW they are interferring with a candidate canvassing as part of a GE.

And a party that is officially registered.

So even if it was a usual suspect being vexatious, you would have thought that by now the police would hesitate and think instead of the usual knee jerck response to a TRA complaint.

Can a complaint be made to the Electoral Commission?

Doesn't Sheffield police have a history on this - although on reflection isn't it Leeds where the police are the lap dogs of the TRAs?

It was West Yorkshire where she was threatened with being arrested, there have been complaints to the Electoral Commission about her being openly homophobic.

I've just spoken to ds & apparently Louise McDonld was vile at the hustings, everyone including the audience told her to shut up. She was homophobic every time she opened her mouth, she verbally insulted the Green candidate who is gay.

What's that got to do with the leaflet?

Datun · 27/06/2024 22:53

Christinapple · 27/06/2024 22:52

I don't know what the leaflets are about, but her use of transphobic slurs are stored safely in archives for the police and electoral commission to see.

An anti-trans Party using transphobic slurs? Not a good look is it?

lol. It's not a crime.

Did you give a police statement? Any recordings you took which could be used as evidence?

Don't know what any of that's about but I have seen her use a transphobic slur multiple times. That sounds to me like malicious communication with a hate aggravator.

Nat6999 · 27/06/2024 22:28

That's my ward the candidate is standing in, we haven't had any leaflets yet. I've just told ds as his friend is standing for the Green Party.

MarieDeGournay · 27/06/2024 22:18

Yes I'd certainly be complaining about candidates who use homophobic or transphobic slurs.
But there aren't any homophobic or transphobic slurs to complain about in the election leaflet, are there?

I'd rather she hadn't used the word troon. That undermines her and is unnecessary. Police are totally out of line though.

She did? oh well that explains it all. It's a hateful, transphobic slur.

Update from candidate.
Think he's going to find it was easier to get into than out of.

UPDATE: spoke to plod again who confirmed he got a fragile ego by putting phone down on me...I smells troon 💀

LadyMary50 · 27/06/2024 21:32

This is outrageous behaviour from Sheffield Police.I expect this sort of action in elections in Russia,not in our democratic country😡

borntobequiet · 27/06/2024 21:29

I hope this gets reported widely.
