This poor young woman actually communicated with Tsang on the HER app before swapping phone numbers with him. You tried to warn them that their lunatic policy was an accident waiting to happen. And now it has.

How the hell is her being bi his defence? Is the argument now that I’ve you’ve ever consented to one guy, you’ve consented to them all?

So "forcibly penetrated" doesn't matter because, y'know, previous encounters with men? That's a rapist's charter.

Fucking jury too. Non consensual sex whatever the orientation is still rape.

Every last thing people have been called an "alarmist" for predicting has come to pass in real life. Thank you for refusing to let the people doing the "pooh-poohing" off the hook!

Rape is penetrative sex she was in no risk of that in a lesbian liaison. It’s homophobic she should challenge it. Shame on the jury

Cowardice on so many fronts now Graham. If you don’t speak up and identify yourself whatever the issue you purport to believe in then your point of view is invalid. Politicians will one day walk away from all this leaving damaged women and children behind. Their careers will go on but let’s hope their consciences will pursue them. Bitter gall indeed.

Graham, you warned of men lurking on lesbian dating apps! Just the other day I was harassed online by some gay man re. “Graham Lineham harassing lesbians on women’s dating app”. I set him str8, so to speak, & properly blocked him. Now at least one woman raped, rapist exonerated!?? This is war on lesbians, women & children.

Who could possibly have predicted this?

No, they won't care until you're back in the TV business and can help their career. Expect silence and closet support until the tide turns.

Women meeting up with men are wary because if it goes wrong being overpowered is always a danger. This woman must have been terrified when she realised what was going on. This man is so dangerous he should be locked up.

Total vindication

"You may not care about the issue enough to put your careers at risk, but the least you could do is not smear those of us trying to do something about it."

Indeed!

As day follows night any thinking person can see the consequences of this dangerous ideology. Oh stop being such cowards and speak up!
