@Rose1957

Months later, still cannot figure out what the charges are exactly.
www.scotsman.com/news/crime/marion-millar-scots-woman-appears-in-court-accused-of-sending-homophobic-and-transphobic-tweets-3365741

*"Marion Millar, 50, allegedly behaved in a threatening or abusive manner between October 2020 and June 2021 within the Glasgow area and Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire.

Prosecutors state Millar repeatedly posted content on social media that was of a "homophobic and transphobic nature."

It is claimed Millar posted a photograph on social media of a sign where a named Scots actor was working at the time.

The charge alleges Millar disclosed personal information relating to a female police constable on social media.

Millar is further claimed to have communicated on social media about the officer, which contained false information.

The offence is said to have been aggravated by prejudice related to sexual orientation"*

Supporting the rights of trans-people and standing up against transphobia isn't "homophobic".

And standing up for the rights of LGB individuals isn't transphobic either.

Nor are the RSPCA, Wells for Africa, The Poppy Appeal, et cetc. They just have a different focus. But you know that!

There's certainly a bit of a witch hunt against Stonewall, all because they support trans people.

No! Yes, there is a witch hunt, I am all for making Stonewall accountable fo rits actions. But it is NOT because oft supports transpeople. It is because it has abandoned LGB people - unless they toe the party line! Many are leaving Stonewall when they undertsand fully how little the T has to do with sexual orientation and how much is being lost by the total obsession with all things T.

And yes, that list was from Augiust - and bears little in common with current events, which we won't discuss here as it could be pejudicial to a live case.

So please. Start your own thread with whatever your current 'point' might be! You never know, we might even respond!

MargaritaPie did start their own thread, we did respond, MargaritaPie didn't. It was a veritable damp squib.

HoardingSamphireSaurus · 22/10/2021 14:52

Do you know, I think I posted on itGrin

Maybe Margy lost it. Oh, no. It was deleted wasn't it? Or was that some other One Hit Wonder?

RedDogsBeg · 22/10/2021 15:19

I don't think it was deleted it just petered out due to lack of engagement from the person who started it, one wonders why they bothered.

HoardingSamphireSaurus · 22/10/2021 15:26

Ah. I think I was mixing it up with BilindaBs post Smile

Marion's case has finally been discontinued by the Crown. Fucking farce. Totally unacceptable.

About bloody time.

AssassinatedBeauty · 28/10/2021 09:50

Oh thank fuck for that! IMO she should be compensated for the distress caused by such a ridiculous situation, but I'm quite sure there's no provision for that.

littlbrowndog · 28/10/2021 09:50

Yay 💪💪💪

Now what - I really want to see heads roll (yes I am a meany old bag, but I have the flu, so am particularly crotchety at the moment).

There bloody well should be. The complainant should be questioned properly about all this. Wasting police time?
Datun · 28/10/2021 09:55

That's excellent news. Poor Marion tho, having to go through that.

It should never have arisen in the first place obviously.

Let's hope this will bring an end to these spurious accusations.

Theeyeballsinthesky · 28/10/2021 09:57

Brilliant!! 😃😃 Wondering if it deserves a separate thread?? Woukdbt want ppl to miss it Grin

ArabellaScott · 28/10/2021 09:59

Flowers Marion, what a relief for you that the farce of the case has been dropped.

I am happy to dig to help you to seek compensation from the people responsible.

PronounssheRa · 28/10/2021 10:00

Excellent news. Maybe the police will start to think about the way in which they are being used by some activists to silence women.

nauticant · 28/10/2021 10:01

Just thinking about the people, on here and elsewhere, whose day will have been spoiled by this news brings a smile to my face.

NonnyMouse1337 · 28/10/2021 10:01

Fantastic news. She should never have been charged in the first place. I hope there are serious consequences and compensation for the immense stress and injustice she was put through, but I doubt heads will roll.

PronounssheRa · 28/10/2021 10:02

Any views on the Crown dropping the case Margarita?

I hadn’t thought of that...

Thank you 😁📣

I hope the police in Northern Ireland are taking note
