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.

You can support his Substack here

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.
You can support Nick here (posted this morning Friday 5th September):

"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:"

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.

Sorry, that was me. I genuinely didn't know and couldn't find out. Sorry if it was the wrong thing to ask. I'm a genuine poster.

If you hadn't asked, I probably would have! Still, now we know.

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".

Oh blimey, that is hilarious!

Cailleach1 · 07/09/2025 21:21

This case is certainly helpful in exposing the way the police seem to be acting at the whim to their former colleagues, or other blokes they appear to regard as having more rights than the general public. I suppose it doesn’t offer any reassurance about their role in this when the police give the impression of (if not being their actual protectors) at minimum quashing opprobrium of abusive males. They seem to quash public condemnation of even those who abuse minors. Didn’t KJK get a visit from the police, admonishing her for being ‘untoward about paedophiles’?

There is something very wrong with it all, isn’t there?

Oh blimey, that is hilarious!

He was just bringing it in from TikTok and so on. The SC ruling brought a glut of videos of men doing their hair and makeup and pouting and saying, "So you'll be ok with me doing this in the gents' next to your husband, then." Yes of course I am but video it, please. Why should you get all the laughs?

The silly sod also didn't seem to realise that he appeared to be tacitly admitting to cruising while in the bog and even revealing his type. Do what you want to do, fellas, but just keep it out of the ladies' room.

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

Kind of paradoxical, isn't it, as it's such a male thing to say. "I'm trying to be better than women (which clearly shows that I can't be better than women)."

JanesLittleGirl · 07/09/2025 21:49

To me the only question is why are the police enabling these sick puppies?

SionnachRuadh · 07/09/2025 21:56

I think Glinner's estimate is pretty close to the mark. Obviously it's not only 5 people, but if the right 5 people were arrested and the courts decided to slap Criminal Behaviour Orders on them, that would cut out a huge amount of the harassment.

And send a message to the others who see them act with impunity.

The College of Policing seems to be fairly central to the acceptance of certain ‘values’ and ideas.

There a current eye-opening thread (includes an archive in the OP) in FWR. It’s worth a look if you haven’t already.

That's a TERRIBLE wig.

It is Kate Scottow you have to thank, for she won the right to call him 'A Pig in a Wig' on social media after he got her arrested for tweets and MN posts about him [she was the mother of 5 who was left for hours in a cell with no sanitary protection].

God I remember that. More of the police being absolutely awful to women.

chrith · 08/09/2025 07:52

Kate Scottow’s conviction was overturned on appeal wasn’t it? Does this mean she has no criminal record? did she recoup any legal costs or was there a crowdfunder, I can’t remember?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 08/09/2025 08:51

I think there was a crowdfund, but not 100% sure.
