It is a tenet of British law that one is innocent until proven guilty, which makes Linehan's bail condition barring him from tweeting all the more outrageous.
A tenet that was ratified in Magna Carta and reinforced by Article 10 (Freedom of Expression) of the Human Rights Act 1998.
Of which Graham's Article 10 rights are clearly being violated.
Ironic. They claim you are stirring up hate but, as a woman, I feel that it is the police stirring up hatred against me by arresting a man who campaigns for my safety.
The police should be defending women. They aren't. Who are the real haters here?
And how calm and polite they were, how practised and rote this all was. That is the chilling thing. There was no risk, the man they were holding was in the right. But it was a nice easy shift, no actual or real risk to them, they get paid, job done. They knew full well Graham wasn't going to harm them. The risk was to Graham. Oh, maybe for them being held accountable when he came to harm. They court that risk. Like telling lesbians to stop provoking the poor violent trans-identifying lunatics. Better stay inside dearies where it's safe. Don't use streets or any form of transport.
What about others who deliberately attack the Met and all other police? Kick off and are indiscriminately violent and attack their female colleagues without a moment's doubt or pause? Oooh no comment. The ones you can profile very easily. The ones who stab you when your back is turned or when you turn to protect someone else.
They are playing with fire here. To put someone in such a stressful situation is rather surprising. It has actual real, not imaginary, impacts on someone's health. This incident was preventable and a gross misuse and abuse of power. It's all very, very strange.
proof that the starmer stasi really do exist......URGENT be sure to check out my other post above in the thread its VERY IMPORTANT and be sure to act accordingly
This police " service " makes me ashamed of my country ,but THIS is not who WE are !! The world's talking about this ,Graham ,so you've probably peaked more people. It's a disgrace but they won't shut us up ,no matter what the tras throw at us. You're our hero , no question about it. Take Care.
Yes, I thought the sarcasm would be apparent to all but apparently not.
Just for sake of completion, while the 1998 Act embeds the convention in domestic law, the UK was a co-author and signatory of said European Convention on Human Rights since 1950. This came into effect in 1953.
And so many seem totally oblivious that it was thanks to 'us' and what the UK used to be back then, as in our people who fought for these rights and to be enshrined. For everyone. Working together.
The 'co-author' bit seems so lost now. It's been totally captured to be turned on its head by the supposedly clever, educated and intelligent 'classes' to be a vile perversion of what was intended and written. Any gap now is used, any nuance is twisted. Every fact is upended and everything is merely a 'perception' and 'interpretation' to make some legal team money in happily proposing the more luridly bizarre interpretation of nonsense they can. Human rights for me me me not thee. Then they push that through by weight of numbers and length and delay to cases. It's arcane and esoteric by very deliberate design.
Hi Graham, I've just joined.. This latest has pushed me, I can't imagine how the world ended up here... Come back the 1970s Birmingham for myself, 1970s County Offaly for 'Himself'. Best wishes to you, I'll spread the word. Rhayla P. Mcwilliams
We might wonder how it is that when our present Queen is groped on an underground train, she uses her shoe to smash the abuser in the balls and the whole country applauds her. Yet when Graham L suggests women should do something similar if they see a trans 'woman' displaying his manhood in a female toilet, he gets arrested.
The news cycle is very fast now. Some very big stories appearing and disappearing so it's very tricky to keep track of what's happening (if it is happening) or when or where. And events are then kicked off the front pages or our home screens by other yet even more incredible revelations. I then mention things to others who didn't see them, read or hear about them and it takes some effort to track down that thing you swear you thought you saw and read...
I have found it can be very difficult to find stories again after some time has passed (something about the search engines - maybe I should be finding the equivalent of a periodical index instead of relying on search engines). As for not missing stories, I used to watch weekly news roundups (such as the Daily Show) but those are quite selective in what they want to talk about (especially the Daily Show).
This makes me spit with rage on your behalf. RIP free speech and the right to express ourselves and challenge things we do not agree with. Of course, it's yet more two tier policing. The trans mob can literally carry signs in the street saying things like "punch Terfs" with impunity. That's not just offensive, but a direct call to action to physically cause assault.
Loving that Graham demonstrates the justifiable outrage of the innocent. In response the plod says “There is no need for that”. On the contrary, yes, sonny, there is every need for this outrage.
It is very disturbing that GL obviously came close to a stroke as a result of people (sad little creatures) choosing to take offence at a joke, that had an amusing punchline (literally).
Something else has made me spit rage this morning related to this - I listened to the recording and on the right hand side of the screen were some recommended questions to ask AI:
"What steps can we take to address the harassment and violence against trans people?" and,
"How can we ensure police procedures respect the rights and dignity of tran individuals?"
Are you bloody kidding me AI? The irony! How about Graham's right to live without harrassment and be treated with dignity and respect by the police?
Sending hugs from NZ Glinner.
You’re a legend and we will win.
🏆 🏴☠️
This has to stop!!
The rank-and-file police need to start pushing back against being used as authoritarian boot-boys for the regressive Left.
Unbelievable over-reach. The optics for the UK on the world stage is shameful.

No wonder your blood pressure was up. Take care x

If only we had a convention of human rights that covered freedom of expression.
Article 10 of the Human Rights Act of 1998.
I think he was being sarcastic because the police are clearly ignoring the law.
Yes, I thought the sarcasm would be apparent to all but apparently not.
Just for sake of completion, while the 1998 Act embeds the convention in domestic law, the UK was a co-author and signatory of said European Convention on Human Rights since 1950. This came into effect in 1953.
That is really the relevant date.
And so many seem totally oblivious that it was thanks to 'us' and what the UK used to be back then, as in our people who fought for these rights and to be enshrined. For everyone. Working together.

I’m glad my knowledge of European history and law stopped where it did. 🫡
Clearly

Oh wow, I did not know that story. That is a good comparison.

Well said.
Starmer and his north Korean police must be stopped

1984-ish for sure.
That's really frightening!
Insidious. I see a lot of it these days.
