How the Trans Lobby Captured the Cops.
Graham Linehan's arrest last week represents the culmination of almost two decades of subversion of British police first by the gay lobby and then its more violent successor the LGBTQ+ mafia.
The arrest of Graham Linehan for the crime of tweeting has rightly provoked near-universal outrage.
Last Monday the Father Ted writer was detained by five (yes five…) armed police officers as he stepped on to the tarmac at Heathrow Airport where he had arrived from the United States. He was told that three gender-critical tweets from April were being investigated on suspicion of ‘inciting violence’. They weren’t of course. But you knew that.
Leading Labour figures have tried rather uconvincingly to echo the anxiety and disgust provoked by Graham’s arrest. Keir Starmer issued a statement saying policing social media should not be a ‘priority’ for the Metropolitan Police. It’s hard to know whether this bore the fingerprints of his new comms chief: Blair veteran Tim Allan…who resigned as a trustee of gender critical campaign group Sex Matters just three days before taking up his new role.
Either way, Allan’s appointment triggered an anxious letter to Starmer from an organisation we’re going to discuss a lot in this article.
A much shorter version of this article was published by Spiked Online yesterday. As a subscriber you get to read the unabridged, full-fat version complete with forensic detail and links to the relevant documents. I can only do this research because of paid subscriptions. I’m preparing a stonker of a piece….as we speak….which I could not possibly do without the generosity of paying subscribers, for whom I am eternally grateful. Thank you.
Wes Streeting responded at first by insisting he wanted to see coppers “policing streets not just policing tweets” which is hardly a robust defence of free speech since it suggests tweets should continue to be policed as long as the Old Bill gets round to doing some real crime fighting too.
He -or his spinmeisters- later amped up his comment by removing the just in “just policing tweets”. It's understandable that Labour figures sound less than sure-footed on the subject of unfair policing. That’s because the arrest of Linehan is the culmination of a process of subversion of the British police which was set in motion in the dog days of the last Labour government.
This process aimed to turn the police into the armed wing of the very organization Wes Streeting used to work for: Stonewall.
The ideological capture of the police began with the publication of a Stonewall report on ‘Homophobic Hate Crime: the Gay British Crime Survey’ in 2008. Let me tell you how this, no doubt, well-intentioned document ended up corrupting our justice system, undermined our right to free speech and turned the police into a witless tool of the LGBTQ+ lobby.
