No details yet. He says he will post about it at length tomorrow and it will be worth the wait. So this is just a placemarker for the moment.

Tea cakes or caramel bars?

Tea cakes. I find the bars a bit dry.

I literally have no clue what this thread is about. Is it written in Esperanto .?

Show quote history

Wings Over Scotland is a Scottish political website and blog created and maintained by video game journalist Stuart Campbell.
[wiki]

Lynsay Watson is a trans-IDing man who was a police constable until dismissed for gross misconduct in 2023. He is very fond of suing people, mostly unsuccessfully it seems, so much so that he may be close to being told to Oh Just Go Away Will You! by the legal system, I think they call it being a 'vexatious litigant' or something like that.

Is that helpful?

It might make more sense in Esperanto😀

It's regarding ongoing situations that are less Esperanto than a tournament of Mornington Crescent played with the Keystone Cops.

I'll take a Masonic Sergeant and a sideways slide on the First Tuesday of the Month WFTHTA rules to Elephant and Castle please, if we're waiting.

I’m fairly sure the Henderson Convention (as amended) prevents going south of the river with that move.

I could be wrong. (But I’m not.)

At the moment it's a bit Pirandello. (More than) Six Characters in Search of an Author.

It's the FWR version of Waiting for Wingo Godot.
Hopefully, in this re enactment he eventually turns up.

Budge up, budge up, I need to be able to set up the deckchairs properly.

Now, who wants a Tunnocks while we wait? I've brought plenty but they might be a bit melted in this heat.

Tea cakes or caramel bars?

Just wait until he reads the polycule one!

Get on with it, Wings, I was looking forward to reading it over lunch but I'm getting peckish!

Wings has been heavily involved in rounding up potential claimants against members of the SNP Exec re disappearing funds. So he is doing his best to keep the legal profession in employment, north and south, bless him

The Rev is Stuart Campbell, former video games journalist and now Wings over Scotland. I’m not sure if he’s really a Rev or if it’s a joke.

I am frankly stunned that any Police force anywhere is even picking up the phone to LW. I mean they managed to chuck him out so he can’t have that much power and influence over them. If there’s such a thing as a vexatious complainant he is certainly it.

no fuckin way! I remember Stu Campbell from the late 80s and early 90s. He worked for Future Magazines who published Your Sinclair and was it Amiga Format. Latterly he did some work in Edge (a glossy games media magazine which was vair expensive but the top end of games industry journalism if you ask me).

He famously put some hot take of an old game that nobody played (Death Chase maybe) at his #1 of all time 100 great speccy games. He knew how to wind up / troll the readers even back then.

I'm stunned!

Wings said he was accompanied by FSU solicitor Daniel Berke.

Caroline Farrow has also been represented by a Mr Berke when targeted by FT - wonder if it’s the same guy?

If you had asked my younger self to find something positive to say about Toby Young, I would have laughed. Now I give FSU my money every month. Older and wiser, I guess.

Watson all over the justice system.
Sparkles all over women's toilets.
I'm surprised any woman, real woman, can get her time in court or to an unoccupied loo.

ProtectedlyInsufferable · 04/08/2026 11:40

Colin Wynter KC is working on having Hayden declared a vexatious litigant, not sure if Watson is included in this. But he asked people to contact him with their experiences and has referred obliquely to the paperwork

It is all so FUCKING MENTAL.

What the fuck???
