Graham Linehan arrested on arrival at Heathrow Part 4

[IDareSay]

These threads have mostly been used to follow the case that has taken place at Westminster Magistrate's Court over the 4th and 5th September, (and will continue on the 29th October), but were created to follow the fallout of Graham's arrest at Heathrow on his return to the UK for this court case last week, and what is allegedly a conspiracy of TRAs to intimidate and harass a number of people, including Graham, with the alleged support of various police services.

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. At the time of posting it has reached 64% of its stretch target.
The FSU have managed to get the bail condition that @Glinner must not post on X removed, so he is now freely posting on there again.

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 again on 29th October.
You can support Nick here (posted 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:"

Oh yes, please 🙏🏻

Narcissists always have one rule for them, one for everyone else. They can’t help it, seeing themselves as they do as special and different.

I think people really need to join the dots. Glinner is a prime target for unhinged psychos and so are many GC women.

“Ethical assassination”? 😬

“Ethical assassination”? 😬

Yep.

I know.

I think that was what got him banned from twitter as it's a fairly recent banning.

I think most of the platforms have cracked down on this sort of thing, understandably or they are risking being held liable. Even ones like Bluesky. Reddit has always been fairly responsive to reports in my experience where people are threatening violence, as they frequently do.

Your reminder of the UK definition of extremism

Extremism is the promotion or advancement of an ideology based on violence, hatred or intolerance, that aims to:

negate or destroy the fundamental rights and freedoms of others; or
undermine, overturn or replace the UK’s system of liberal parliamentary democracy and democratic rights; or
intentionally create a permissive environment for others to achieve the results in (1) or (2).

That tweet alone should be enough to raise a massive red flag.

Wings over Scotland is pretty sure he identified Watson / Horwood in the crowd outside court on the second day - wearing a mask but build and age and voice were right.
On the left in the video still

Astonishing - and particularly concerning from an ex-police officer who still unaccountably (in every sense of the word) seems to have some sort of Influence among serving officers.

He seems to be implying that the Legal Feminist account is Naomi Cunningham.

ETA: I am obvs way behind the times here. It is her. Going to read some more now! Yay for NC. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Lynsay.

Yes, it’s really good. I think there are some other feminist legal experts who contribute too.

Legal Feminist is several people - Naomi is one of them

Cool! I'm going to have a good look at their blog.

A post from a social media account run by Watson last month declared: 'The USA is descending into full blown fascism. There has never been such a need for ethical assassination in US history.'

Yeeeooooww, how can he post this stuff?

He has no filters and no ethics, probably.

But he is specifically calling for a political assassination

He was doxxing people on TwiX and posting photographs of people’s homes.

As well as saying we need an ethnical assassination?

I haven't seen it: is he calling for political assassination, ethnical assassination or ethical assassination? There's quite a difference.

(Maybe he meant it's time someone offed Trump... that would be two out of three.)

Ethical. I can't spell.

Bluesky certainly needs to be ‘responsive’ - I’ve just sat down to take a look at today’s Times and seen this - not sure if there’s a thread or discussion elsewhere.
‘Get JK Rowling next:’ Bluesky users celebrate the death of Charlie Kirk.
I wonder if the police will be paying whoever posted that a visit?

I posted a screenshot of some of those posts fairly early on on the CK thread in FWR. I’m glad to see the media pick up on the threats to JKR and other GC people.

Does it matter? "Assassination" is the word he used in an attempt to legitimise what we would otherwise call murder.

Am I getting the wrong end of the stick here?

I was asking because political assassination happens quite often, as does assassination for ethnic reasons, whereas ethical murder is a bit unusual and seems to me to smack of serious confusion.
