I didn't realise Miranda Yardley was in court today over alleged transphobic harrasment.

Debbie Hayton
@DebbieHayton
At Basildon Magistrates Court where Miranda Yardley is on trial for transphobic Harassment. The prosecution applied for reporting restrictions to prevent the complainant Helen Islan from being named. The judge has not granted them. So Helen Islan can be named.

Sending Miranda good luck vibes.

I'm appalled and shocked by this and feel very much for Miranda. The last 10 months must have been so stressful. What an utter waste of time.

I'm just grateful that Mermaids and Helen will have this clinging to them like dung forever more. They are digging their own grave.

GiantKitten · 01/03/2019 17:28

the golfing lawyer is very cross & reporting Moonie to Jennie Formby (WTF???) for saying he hopes Miranda has a decent QC.

Tears before bed I reckon.

Helen Islan was cross examined for two hours. She actively sought to distance herself from Mermaids and she was accused of 'contributing to making this debate toxic,'.

Backfired a bit, then. 🤨

If Miranda is left out of pocket then I for one would be more than willing to contribute to a crowdfund to make up the difference.

It is just so fucking bizarre but so pleased for Miranda.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 01/03/2019 17:29

So I’ve seen what this woman posted about our Debbie on twitter. She calls Debbie a ‘Man in a dress’. And she is crying what now?

FemalePersonator · 01/03/2019 17:29

I would be happy to contribute to Miranda if costs have been incurred.

The bucket the tent and me is a very funny holiday reading.
Thanks IUsed2BanOptimist. I'll make a start with that then.

Mummyoflittledragon · 01/03/2019 17:30

Nope still 1st March. April fools must have come Early this year!

👏👏👏 Miranda

nettie434 · 01/03/2019 17:32

Amoregentlemanlikemanner One of Joani Walsh's tweets used 'he'. Assuming there was not misgendering of course

QuietContraryMary · 01/03/2019 17:32

"So I’ve seen what this woman posted about our Debbie on twitter. She calls Debbie a ‘Man in a dress’. And she is crying what now?"

Oh no there's far more than that

She cheers on the most aggressive TRAs in their doxing and is followed by some people with all manner of fetishes. She was very aggressive herself on Twitter but thinks different standards should apply to others.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 01/03/2019 17:33

Owwww Ninnymum also made veiled accusations of Debbie being (in debbies words) a pervert. This is pretty low. When can she expect a knock at the door and to be hauled into court to explain herself?

TowelNumber42 · 01/03/2019 17:35

It is excellent that this went to court and got thrown out like this. Absolutely excellent. Mermaids needs less glitterlight and more sunlight on it.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 01/03/2019 17:36

……….....Debbie too?!

Urgh. Debbie Gin and Flowers

IDoN0tCare · 01/03/2019 17:37

What’s it going to take. A trans person to be seriously hurt....

Hang on! I thought trans people were being murdered right, left and centre by nasty terfs! Are you implying that’s a lie dreamt up by the TRAs? Shock

IDoN0tCare · 01/03/2019 17:39

Sorry that quote is from the person who must not be misgendered, named or have a woman refuse to wax that person’s balls and identifies as a lawyer.

Melroses · 01/03/2019 17:42

The twitter account of the marketing manager with the fishy tail has long been beyond the pale. It got a quick clean up a while back when they were accusing Posy - I expect it reverted, but I gave up looking at it after that - better ways to waste my time.

I still fondly remember Helga Iceland from the banned Mermans Smile

RepealTheGRA · 01/03/2019 17:43

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I hope one day that Helen and any children in her care get the help they so desperately need.

Flowers love and hugs Miranda and thank you very much for always being prepared to put yourself in the firing line to protect children, you were one of the first voices I came across speaking out about this child abuse.

Melroses · 01/03/2019 17:44

What’s it going to take. A trans person to be seriously hurt....

I read that but it didn't make sense, since we seem to have got all topsy-turvy as to who is trans and who is hurting whom in this court case.

QuietContraryMary · 01/03/2019 17:46

What the fuck was she thinking pursuing this against an actual transsexual person? Pick your targets Mrs marketing lady

lottiebel123 · 01/03/2019 17:48

blind, incandescent, self entitlement?

HamiltonCork · 01/03/2019 17:49

Do we know what police force facilitated this shit show?

EweSurname · 01/03/2019 17:49

Some are happy to go along with the perpetual victim narrative. First tweet is about Lewis moonie’s tweet, second is about the court case.

I think Helen lives in West Yorkshire. Miranda is in Essex. So presumably one of those two.

RaininSummer · 01/03/2019 17:50

Fab news. Thanks to posters sharing info as it came in.

Thingybob · 01/03/2019 17:52

I may be unpopular here for saying this but....

I can't help but feel rather sorry for Helen. She too must have been traumatised by the day and was supposedly in tears whilst giving evidence. To some extent I think she is also a victim of this crazy ideology and seeing some of the mind control that goes on online, it's easy to see why people fall for it. Sadly when the whole fantasy comes tumbling down there will be thousands like Helen who will need deprogramming.
