'Heather' Herbert Charged Over Ann Widdecombe Comments

[PandorasMailbox]

About time imo

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2ln31g8gvo

Same lines as the bbc report, ‘an employee’

Given they all seem to be charged with something, the polycule is looking unsteady.

I agree with, WerewolfOfLoudon i suspect the arrest has a lot more to do with historical bash back comments than the ann widdecombe ones.

We really do need a WTAF reaction emoji, don't we?

Not a great week for Jolyon Maugham, but I am not a monster and will continue to support TRAINS. I look forward to seeing Sophie Molly post another selfie on the next train that carries him off to meet Jo and the GLP to work on their case against Sarah Phillimore. 🚂🚂🚂

Edit:typo

This feels legit real to me.

we don't know the full details (yet)
possible that's not the public sm messages were the reason for a charge but other communications/actions related.

Could distress any relatives I guess?

Aberdeen University were flooded with his previous posts, including the guns with names attached and the "if they don't show love, show guns" (paraphrasing possibly) so it is even possible the Uni reported him from their investigation and handed over his work computer.

Don't suppose we will ever know but arrested and charged is a start.

🤣🤣🤣 JoMo has probably fled the country.

Outstanding news.

Vile ignorant little man.

Finally some good news.

Poetic justice for Ann.

Times article
ETA using the confusing 'transgender woman' and no pronouns.

Will he have a toilet in his cell down the nick, or will he have to use the men's.

As said, I'd suspect something more has been recovered or seen by police under this that isn't knowledge in circulation, but equally Widdecombe was a well known, well respected government figure, there will be many of her friends and colleagues in govt and I can imagine they were extremely distressed by her death and by these awful, ugly comments about it. Pressure on the police from that direction may have been high.

I think it's likely that the police have found further evidence that hasn't been reported yet.

It's about time that the media stopped pretending that men who identify as women are the 'most vulnerable people ever'.

The sad fact is that 62% of transwomen in prison in England and Wales are rapists or sex offenders. And that recent study from Oxford showed that transwomen are more likely to commit murder than they are to be murdered in the UK.

When men identify as women, they don't suddenly become any safer than other men.

I agree with this. Ann Widdicombe herself wouldn’t have agreed with criminal charges for a foul opinion on her. Being sacked seems fair enough though.

Transwoe...

Speaking ill of the dead should never be a crime. Even though this man would want you locked up for calling him a him, the police shouldn't be interested in this. If he used a work computer to make these remarks he should be fired.

Good
Vile man!

Herbert has made the R4 six o’clock news.

Good. I think more people are getting fed up with the pandering to "trans" (mostly men with a fetish or young people either attention seeking or trying to fit in somewhere) and trans activists. The pendulum swung too far left in general and I feel like it's swinging back a bit.

I don’t think what he did should be illegal either but there is a lovely irony of him suffering from the same batshittery of Scottish justice that he undoubtedly revelled in when it was aimed at women who won’t go along with his nonsense. I would put money on him having submitted police reports that would have involved SM posts that are much tamer than his were.

I doubt HH is some terrorist mastermind. He is a moron though.

I suspect there's a lot of manipulation goes on within the polycule. Some of it is probably quite obvious to anyone who sees or hears what is put in the public domain but I strongly suspect there will be stuff that goes on that is not for public consumption. But the message will still get out there. Somehow.

Hopefully, the Herbert situation will give the University of Aberdeen some thought, although, going by how captured they are, it might take a while to filter through.
