Glinner: let's hire a private detective

He's launched a crowdfund to hire a proper detective to look into the small group of men who abuse the law and the police to silence and harass women and campaigners. Stated aim is to get evidence that's of sufficient standard to use in court.

The interesting thing to me is that the initial target was £3k and after about 12 hours, he's already raised £4k.

This might be fun😁

@Glinner I don't think your donation website is running properly. I tried to donate and it didn't work for me, nor the previous poster.

Davros · 14/10/2025 23:42

I’ve tried to donate twice. I can’t get that website to work 🤷‍♀️

The man who threatened to kill Nigel Farage (posted on tiktok) has been tried and sentenced to prison. (On the news just now).

Can we look forward to similar treatment of those men who have issued online rape and death threats to named women?

I won’t hold my breath…

The Darlington nurses has been reported to the GNC, believed to be by the usual suspects. £6,885 now.

Ha ha, my mind immediately went to hiring Strike and Ellacott and sure enough he's even using the image. It's a gloriously bold idea. Not attacking the main thrust of transactivism but cutting out some of the grimy movers on the fringe. Why not? There are plenty of women they're harassing as well as Glinner, it would be a public service to expose them.

I have no idea where one finds a reputable reliable and non captured agency. If Glinner can then I'll chuck him a few quid. For the women it will protect.

I think the photoshopped image (one of Moley’s, I believe) should have put Tarquin’s face over Robin’s..,

Good luck @Glinner!

Hey there, this seems to have captured people's imagination which is great, what I wanted it to do. But as a result we've flown past our target.

So the plan is to get a small achievable job done with the money raised so far. We will present evidence to the media, the police and our wonderful contributors. If we uncover criminal activity, we might be able to put pressure on the police to actually do something about it. Imagine that! Lynsey Watson isn't the only one who can threaten a judicial review, after all.

I'm happy to have an independent third party oversee the way the money is spent but I make no bones about saying what I want to use the money for, which is to bring to justice some absolute rotters. I am currently waiting for a friend to speak to a team they've worked with before to see if they're up for being involved. If they say no, I get to go shopping for private detectives.

So this is somewhat frivolous compared to some of the things you've given money to before, but it's not that frivolous. These men have left behind a trail of victims, and this might be a way of making the trail end.

I would be in favour of the independent third party overseeing the spending. That makes people more confident about contributing.

Also, if this is not just about your persecutors but about those that have harassed women like Helen Joyce, for example, then I think that you could emphasise that more strongly.

Wishing you success

Oooh @Glinner, I’d start your own thread, you’ll get loads of support! This one might get lost.

The link in my original post looks a mess because the mumsnet hyperlink function can't handle archive.org links.

"the mumsnet hyperlink function can't handle archive.org links."

MN can handle raw URLs, but apparently doesn't want the embellished links provided by various apps and websites (share button). Those often comprise of various HTML tags beside the raw link, so that the link shows up at the recipient in the way the sender wants. I think MN doesn't allow URLs wrapped in HTML tags in the comments, so these will always be broken. ⛓️‍💥
If you copy the raw URL from the address field of the browser into a MN comment, it will always work, archive.org or elsewhere.

If all it does is have them peering over their shoulders for a change.

£6,745 now. It's on a Christian fundraising website but no one needs to pray if they dont want to. Or those urging us not to donate can pray for Graham's soul or their own.

InjuryMyArse · 14/10/2025 08:27

I actually think it's really good that supporters are able to show they are thinking of the fundraiser and praying for them if they think that will help.

Is this some sort of satirical crowdfunder site? Feels like a piss take.

It seems to be a Christian run website. A lot of the fundraising and crowderfunder sites have caved in to TRA demands and shut down crowdfunders for GC people so he may have a limited choice of platforms that he can use

£2,600 a month according to the Daily Mail, paid for by the unpaid work women do writing his substack for him.

Where does it say that the unpaid labour of women is funding his lifestyle? I was actually under the impression that he did pay his substack contributors.

I won't be contributing because I'm skint, but people can decide for themselves, surely. You should always check out any requests for donations carefully, whoever they are from.

NotNatacha · 13/10/2025 22:06

I do enjoy the start of that article about the Darlington nurses after four people reported them. It’s written by the Telegraph’s ‘Social and Religious Affairs Editor’. Thanks for the link, @AutumnedCrow and @lcakethereforeIam .

Here’s the entire third paragraph, which follows “… about being forced to undress in front of Rose Henderson, who was born male.”

The colleague whose name identifies as female but has not undergone any physical or hormonal transition.

Absolute idiocy to tip off those you want to investigate and this is well within the remit of his existing fundraiser: it's precisely the sort of thing that his team should be spending existing funds on to strengthen his case.

And stunts like this are why some of us who have faced similar harassment from the same men are no longer updating and sharing information with him. He'll likely post it on Twitter in an angry and/or drunken rage and harm ongoing proceedings.

Lettiy · 12/10/2025 12:10

Does this man ever stop asking women to send him money?

Enough already.

Yeah, he’s clearly asking any contributors for money, not just women, but then you already knew that.

Just for your disingenuous comment @Lettiy I’ve just donated to his crowdfunder. You are most welcome 😘
