Arrested again! Details on his Substack. This is beyond a joke; 5 armed officers!

There was also something about Prisoner: Cell Block H.

But surely that's what Glinner suggested? His tweet referred to 'men' not trans identifying men, just men. The fact that any man has, over the last several years, been encouraged to enter single sex facilities if he wants to, has come about because trans dentifying men have claimed it as their right, is neither here nor there. Glinner's tweet didn't specify any particular subset of men and furthermore, he simply offered the same good advice as the Queen's mother, which Camilla had the presence of mind to use to excellent effect!

Streeting involved now too eh?

👀

Well yes, but i give that one a pass as it led to the funny pastiches. So it had some intrinsic value, if not what the poster intended.

Arrest the Queen for inciting violence.

Absolutely. But I suspect many members of the public still think that the majority of transwomen have had surgery, whereas we know that most of them haven't.

It’s all very well for these politicians to make all the right platitudes. It would be better if the Home Secretary instructed police to drop any potential charges, cease any investigation, and revoke any bail conditions and publicly state as such and that vexatious complaints won’t be tolerated.

For all the noise so far, Glinner is still under a cloud.

Starmer really needs to get a grip on this, it’s unbelievable to me that the PM, a former DPP, former head of the CPS, is being made to look an absolute fool by the Police, and you just know that Farage will do his best to exploit the situation.

Well no, the tweet did specifically refer to trans identified males. But very specifically to one who was in a female space and was still there after the woman had made a fuss and called the cops.
maybe glinner would like to clarify that if we found any man - himself included - where he shouldn’t be, then he’d recommend a similar course of action?

This is going to be discussed on Jeremy Vine radio show at 12, if anyone wants to email or phone in?

I dont think they are premeditated, and as far as Im concerned I didn't say that. I was talking about what GL said in his tweet. I wasnt talking about preparedness for self defence in itself. Im quite happy for people to kick someone in the nuts if they are being attacked. Its rather sad about GL. I loved Black Books and Father Ted. The guy obviously was s bit of s comedy genius. No doubt sbout it. But I think he's gone off the rails. But I won't be hanging around on here to 'learn ' anything useful thank you very much..The method of debating on here seems to be ' I said its true therefore it is true. And if you say it isnt , then Im going to kick you in the nuts'. Good night.

That a six-armed police woman, surely?

I just heard this. Amazing how JV has been all full of compassion for the marginalised and oppressed transladies and imploring bigoted women to be kind, but now they're coming for blokey comedians he's saying 'wait a minute...'

Oooh you're so edgy and coooollll. A man being arrested by FIVE ARMED POLICE for a tweet is so funny, try not to split your sides laughing.

Oh, I've just realised you're actually a bit thick. Sorry.

Here you go then, a man was arrested by FIVE ARMED POLICE OFFICERS or for those who struggle with comprehension that is FIVE POLICE OFFICERS CARRYING GUNS were sent to intimidate and terrify a man - not because they were in any way remotely frightened of him or because they though he would resist or be any sort of a threat, and not because they had to arrest him (at all) but to send a message that the police state is now in full operation and wrong thinkers will be punished.

Hahahaha! Police states are so funny!🙄🙄🙄

I didnt say that

He stated, correctly, that a trans-identified man in a female only space is committing a violent, abusive act and then stated that women (when confronted with such a violent abusive act) should "Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails punch him in the balls".

They obvs needed five of them for one unarmed man,

👍a spot of humour about a very serious subject is intolerable. Down with this sort of thing!

Careful now.

They have a funding link on X but I cannot open it despite clicking several times. I hope it is doing well and will try again later.
@Glinner Thank you so much for everything you have done, no matter the personal cost.

It would be ironic if it was a labour government that did this, but there does need to be a realigning of understanding on what hate speech/incitement.to violence is/isn't allowed.

Incidentally I do think this is different to someone like Lucy Connelly who was specifically calling for hostels to be called down during a time when there were angry mobs attacking hostels. I don't think there is an absolute right to say/tweet whatever you want. But the lines need to be really clearly drawn and consistent to stop complaints of double standards/two tier etc.

😁

There's absolutely no consistency. If telling women to kick a man in the balls if he won't leave a female space is inciting violence, there's a metric fuckton of social media posts and signs at protests about killing GC women that should have resulted in a lot of BDSM dog collars getting felt.

Ah, yes the gobshite's gobshite is so much above it all. We are honoured to be in the presence of an edgelord.

And Father Ted references make police states and abuse of power cool and funny.🙄🙄🙄
