Graham Linehan arrested on arrival at Heathrow Part 3

[IDareSay]

These threads are currently being used to follow the case that is taking place at Westminster Magistrate's Court over the 4th and 5th September, but will also be following the subsequent fallout of Graham's arrest at Heathrow on his return to the UK for this court case earlier this week.

He is currently on trial for alleged harassment of a trans identified male and criminal damage to the man's phone. The charges stem from a series of events in October 2024 at Battle of Ideas.

Free Speech Union are running a fundraiser to support a claim against the Met in reference to the Heathrow arrest. Just search FSU and Graham Linehan fundraiser and it should be easy to find. Currently reached 93% of its target.

Most of the mainstream media have reported on the case, but none have covered it as well as Nick Wallis. Follow him on X for live posting from the court.

"I am deeply grateful to everyone who has seen fit to bung me the cost of a coffee, a pint or even a bloody London pint since I found out I was able to come back today. If you think you can afford to make a small donation, there’s more info here:"

So is ...

Have we got a list?

Tbh at this stage, I think that ship has sailed for these individuals if they decide to go down that route.

They want a scalp anyway not just any old rando in the webs. Cos it's all about getting their clicks and power.

"Stephanie" was at the court. There are pictures of him when SB was fleeing covered by umbrellas with all those goons around him.

That is genius! Would love to have been a fly on the wall when he found out!

That MNer showed real class, I think.

True.

It's also true that he has a criminal record.

Yes and his criminal record includes sexual assault of a child. He was on the sex offender register for a while.

That's a TERRIBLE wig.

Liberal Democrat. Come on guys, surprise us, yeah?

Yes GL has said on Twitter that if they round up just 5 of these abusive men then the vast majority of the hounding of GC people will stop.

I think that's likely to be the case.

No 'genocide'. Just a bunch of criminals done for harassment as they should have donkeys years ago.

Free Speech Nation is talking about this now with Toby Young from FSU.

Isn't he the one with the very unladylike voice booming, "Oi oi" at one point.
Such feminine! Many XX.

That does run a sword through the "women don't need legal protections because it's only a small number of people" idea. Even aside from the fact that it takes only one man to render a space unisex and unusable for women who require single sex, or that there isn't an acceptable number of female victims to placate one male ego... look at just how much damage a small number of people can do when they really want to.

But does "the greater the truth the greater the libel" actually have any truth in it, or is it just one of those bits of lore that gets trotted out with no basis in law?

What, from 15 feet away?? 😆

He's an offender. There's no libel there at all.

Good. So he'd have difficulty taking it to court.

If an adult male had engaged in sexual activity with a minor (i.e. sexual abuse of a minor) more than one time, and convicted of that abuse, does that make such a man a repeat sex offender?

I find it amazing that a convicted sex offender is strutting around telling other people to have ‘some dignity’. I think there appear to be so many creepy (imo) men who have attached themselves to this anti-scientific ideology. One has to pause and wonder as to what attraction such a vehicle provides for them. In the context of what type of men some are, as proven by a sexual conviction.

True.

He'll take almost anything to court. As a litigant in person so no costs and being on low income/benefits he takes advantage of the Help with Fees scheme.

He rarely wins a case but that doesn't matter when the goal is to put the other side to a great deal of time, expense, and stress.

That tweet! The whole nasty mess summed up in one line.

We are inclusive of misogynists, bullies, paedophiles, deranged fantasists and lesbophobes. But not reasonable, rational people. No, they can fuck off with their common sense, safeguarding reality bigotry...

Word of warning: the usual suspects are likely to try to get this thread taken down, they will deluge MNHQ with complaints. Please be careful what you post about named individuals

Many of them are resentful of what they see as women's sexual power. This is a way of, as they see it, removing that power from women and passing it to men, who they say will do womanning better than women. It's why so many of them say things like "your husband wants me" and try to be sexually provocative. A lot of male TRAs are the same. They wouldn't be caught dead dating a transwoman but they are very supportive of the idea that transwomen could take women's sexual power, as they see it, to men, so they will try to make us insecure. Some absolute walloper was on here shortly after the SC ruling sharing pictures of a highly polished man in a dress and saying, "So you're ok with her putting on lipstick and tossing her hair in the gents' with your husbands, huh? Huh?" Only if you film it, mate. It'll be fucking gold and I don't see why I should have to miss it.

There's also a lot of it in many abusive messages sent to GC women. Stuff like, "I will dethrone you, I have the power to steal husbands and wreck homes".

Yes. Some of the "Oh I don't know about XYZ can you tell me who it is please" posts seemed a little off in tone to me as well.
