Retired police officer visited by police for missing the A off Freda Wallace's first name

[Charabanc]

JFK, I would say you couldn't make this up, but you could. In fact you don't have to. We know it's been happening.

The usual suspects are involved. And hopefully, after Glinner's court case this week, their names and activities will become more well-known.

The former superintendent said police informed her that the home visit was related to a handful of social media posts about a transgender activist named Freda Wallace.

Ms Larkam had called the activist Fred, using the “dead” male name of the now transgender woman, and this act had been reported to the police.
...
It is believed that Ms Larkman was reported by a disgraced transgender police officer named Lynsay Watson – a figure with a history of urging the authorities to pursue criminal investigations of people who are critical of gender ideology.

Watson, born Alex Horwood, is believed to have also reported Linehan to the police over several social media posts last week.

ETA: Gah flipping MN link rendering! Got there in the end.

So yeah, I think theres plenty of things the police COULD consider....

So the police did absolutely nothing about my violent husband despite an a&e admission and the breaking of countless non molestation orders calling it a "civil matter", yet come down like a ton of bricks on people who call a spade a spade i.e a man a man. WTF is wrong with this country?

Sinister stuff.

Who can help? Who can be alerted to this systematic weaponising of policing?

It’s a useful catch all for this reason and the abusive men know that. Ripe for DARVO potential, their favourite pastime.

My first name is female or male depending on one vowel in the name being different - I’m often referred to by the male version in writing - even my own dad has done it by accident before. I didn’t know I could call the police about it

From what I've just seen on X it wasn't Fred who reported her it was Watson.

There is a glimmer of hope this weekend, the new home secretary is rumoured to be a Terf, she has the ultimate responsibility for police policy.....
Maybe we should all write to her?

Just as well, as the new deputy pm thinks transwomen have cervixes and actual women are dinosaurs hoarding their rights from these men. Or at least he did. I suspect he may have silently reverse ferreted given the SC ruling, but doesn't have the balls to admit it.

Indeed, I hope someone has had a good long talk with him about the realities of sex

It's such a shame as he used to be a good thing. Until he went mad.

If I was asked to look at that Twitter exchange and pick out one which might conceivably be deemed to be a ‘malicious communication’, it would be Wallace’s. Fortunately for whom the women aren’t impressed and don’t believe in wasting police time.
(wtf hasn’t Watson been charged with that by now? Wasting police time is, afaik, still an offence)

Shana Grice was fined for it, and then murdered by the man she most definitely had not wasted police time by reporting.

Bloody hell.

Retired police officer claims her own force knocked on her door after she referred to a transgender activist by her birth name on social media | Daily Mail Online

It’s ‘funny’ (nobody’s laughing though) how one type of ex-officer (male, trans, disgraced) is extended considerations like having spurious complaints investigated.

But others (female, retired in good standing) are not - indeed, are the victims of the spurious complaints of other TiMs.

Couldn’t possibly be due to the misogyny that underpins the culture in many police forces… could it?

I’ve said before, I once read an interview with the police officer responsible for that decision being challenged on it, and he couldn’t have given less of a fuck.

What a good idea. I might cc my own (smug, self-righteous mansplaining TRA-twat) MP.

Can you imagine it?

Hello. Is that the police?
My name is Vicky and someone just called me Vic!!!
Right madam, we'll send five armed police officers to arrest them immediately, even though there is some antisocial behaviour in the town centre, chronic shoplifting at Asda, several burglaries in Acacia Avenue, major drug dealing and a separate gang of paedophiles, a serious road traffic collision on the A1, and a couple of murders to deal with. This is way more important.

Insane. The police are not fit for purpose.

The police and all the useful idiots in politics etc have effectively decriminalised the sex crimes of indecent exposure and voyeurism. In enabling dodgy men claiming to be women to have access to changing rooms where women and girls undress they've given them a green light to break the law.
The idea that these dangerous men are now being empowered by said useful idiots in police forces to mount a campaign against the SC judgment and to continue to commit sex crimes defies belief. It also shows how meaningless their claims to be concerned about VAWG are.

Is it no longer the case that police officers and retired officers, should be interviewed by an officer of the danger rank as themselves? If it is possible I think she should insist on being interviewed by a superintendent or above!

This.

Oh dear, poor "Lynsay" is really thrashing about now. You can read the whole thread if you can bear it , you don't have to be on BlueHairSky:

Former South Wales Police superintendent Catherine Larkman - recently retired to immediately become a full-time anti-trans propagandist, has had her ‘story’ in the anti-trans media widely reported.
She was reported to the police last year for repeatedly deadnaming a trans woman. As a former officer...
