I may have to 'trans' from woman to man, just so I can yell out to the world that I want to be the kind of man Graham Linehan is, strong, courageous, determined, a Warrior for women, for children, for truth! You are hugely loved and respected by all of out here, standing right beside. You are 100% right about all of this....and one day, I hope in the not too distant future, you will be recognised for your bravery and concen. Even my Darlin' Dad would be proud of you, he having been a man of Truth & Integrity too. You have gained 100' of 1000s of friends out here, real friends, not shallow, selfish, cowardly ones, but ones who will remain right beside you. You, and all others daring to stand up to Tyrannical Transworld, are what true courage is about.
Great interview. Stephen Nolan doing his job while others at the BBC pretend they don't know what's happening. The trolls popping up in the text were a useful demonstration of what's going on. I want to see Father Ted the music it sounds brilliant.
I feel your pain Graham. Can't lie, started tearing up a little when you talked about how the whole mess has affected you personally. If you need a wingman to shoot some zombies/bad guys to blow off steam just shout. Chin up brother.
Stephen Nolan is an excellent interviewer and you, Graham, are a knight in shining armour. I have tweeted and will re-tweet and re-tweet the link. I can't tell you how much we love your campaigning and the courage and sacrifice which you have shown. I can't find emojis, but hugs, hugs, hugs.
I’m not sure how best to begin this, but I’ll give it a go. Like many others on this platform, I was originally introduced to you through your writing and it has only been in the past few years that I have learned of your views regarding women, the threat that the current trans rights movement represents to their very existence and, ironically, the vulnerability of existing trans people caught in the crossfire of a war they never started.
Also, like many others on this platform, I have found myself to be in agreement with much of what you have to say and appalled by the abuse directed at you and your family because you dare to call out the liars and throw a light on the abuses hiding behind an obviously hijacked trans flag.
The problem is that I’ve been doing all my agreeing and cheerleading very quietly. I've almost never brought the subject up with friends or family and if someone else has, I have listened politely and not talked, or I've spoken only when confident that no one was listening. In fact I've been so timid that, until today, I wasn’t even prepared to subscribe to this account in my real name. But enough is enough. It's time to start my own conversations, say what I think and do a bit of tide swimming myself.
And that's down to you. So thank you, and please keep on doing what you are doing. You’re not the mad one, you’re not delusional and you’re certainly not some sort of intolerant trans-hating monster for daring to point out that the emperor is stark bollock naked.
Hear hear. Now is a good time to speak to friends, I think. There is enough in the news to start the conversation and you may well be surprised and relieved. I have had good and bad experiences raising with friend. A couple I do not speak to anymore. Their reaction to me even asking questions was to shut me down and it really threw me. Did they think I'd changed? That I'd become a bigot. It really has turned my smug lefty Guardian-reading worldview upside down. I cringe at the 'goodies and baddies' narrative I had accepted. But that was a couple of years ago, and as I say, things have moved on.
I can't not speak up now. Freedom of speech is fundamental. You don't know how important it is until you realise it is the freedom to say that the Emperor is naked.
You are right. Scientific fact must prevail. People can attack us GC people but ultimately we can go to bed at night knowing we are in touch with reality and we aren't screaming into the lonely void wishing we had another set of genitals. That's their delusion and not yours/ours
I'll bet a pound to a penny I know what would happen if the Father Ted musical went ahead; on the first few nights the same small gang of TRA's would gather outside and shout at people going in. Nobody would give a shit and pretty soon the TRA's would get bored and go home.
And it sums up the problem with gender ideology; most people think it's bollocks but they're expected to behave as if it isn't, because of a vocal minority of bullies. The producers have a chance to let the real world come crashing in on TikTok-based fantasy by staging a musical of one of the most popular comedies of all time, and allowing the vast majority of people to go and enjoy it.
Back in the 70's some religious groups protested the screening of 'The Life Of Brian' (as was their right) but they weren't given the power to prevent it being seen. Why should The Cult of Floaty Gendered Souls be afforded any more power over what people watch than regular churchgoers?
Actually the Glasgow Council banned the screening of Life of Brian. Just went to neighbouring Bearsden (in East Dunbartonshire) to watch it. 30min bus journey from city centre. Pointless gesture.
Without Graham Linehan there is no Father Ted it would be like saying 'Harry Potter by the writer Warner Bros.' The industry are weak minded cowards that would kill the goose that lays the golden egg. I hope more of the 'celebs' grow a backbone.
You ARE right and you will be vindicated. You have an army right behind you and so very many people who love, admire & respect you.
Finally a broadcaster with some balls.
Or, dare I say...ovaries? :)

Echo that ,whole heartedly ♥️👍
Fascinated by the TRA twitter response. Entirely about Linehans tears.
Not one objection to anything he said about the issues.
Great job Glinner.

Great job Graham! The interview was also repeated this morning on the Nolan radio program which people can find on iPlayer.
Good man.
Thank you for using your platform to speak up against this mass delusion.
I feel your pain Graham. Can't lie, started tearing up a little when you talked about how the whole mess has affected you personally. If you need a wingman to shoot some zombies/bad guys to blow off steam just shout. Chin up brother.
Finally, indeed.

that makes me very happy, thank you!

Absolutely.
Courage calls to courage!

Good interview Graham - the tide is turning, I just know it. Hugs 💗
That was powerful. Thank you.

‘Cult of floaty gendered souls’ 😂🤣Thank you for that!

I'm gonna say this...my heart breaks for you Graham. See those cowards...they're not your friends. Peace & love ❤️
A great interview, Graham. You’re doing such a brilliant job at exposing this idiocy. And at such personal cost.😭
I can’t thank you enough.
