is a cunt
Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin.
Once upon a time, there was a bloke called Fred, who at some juncture, decided that he was in fact a woman, and henceforth, would be known as Freda. ‘A sign of the times’, you might say, ‘whatever (yawn); just get on with it and don’t annoy everybody else with your hang-ups and delusions’.
Well here’s where the plot of my cautionary tale thickens. Enter former South Wales police superintendent Cathy Larkman, who served in the force for over thirty years. Cathy was shocked when she received the proverbial ‘knock on the door’ from officers of her former force early in September. These worthies were there as part of an investigation into her alleged ‘crime’ of referring to ‘Freda’ as ‘Fred’ in a soshull meeja post, thereby committing the utterly heinous offence of ‘deadnaming’ the trans activist by using his former moniker.
The plot thickens further if allegations in ‘The Sunday Telegraph’ are correct. ‘The Telegraph’ states; ‘it is believed that Ms Larkman was reported by a disgraced transgender (former) police officer named Lynsay Watson- a figure with a history of urging the authorities to pursue criminal investigations of people who are critical of gender ideology’. The paper’s report also states that ‘Watson (formerly known as Alex Horwood) is believed to be the person’ who dobbed in Graham Linehan to the scuffers, leading to the writer’s subsequent arrest at Heathrow.
Needless to say, Ms Larkman was both shocked and outraged to learn that her former colleagues had been looking into this matter over a period of ten months, which in her opinion, constitutes a ridiculous waste of time and resources. This, I would suggest, is the view shared by any sane individual, especially when you learn that of course, no offence was actually committed, and the whole matter was dropped.
Now I’ve put this nom up under the title of ‘deadnaming’, which to me is another idiot concept dreamt up by transgender ideologues, and is a perfect illustration of the fact that they inhabit a parallel universe to the rest of us. But the nom must also extend once again to a police service which cannot, it seems, show a modicum of common sense and discretion when such ludicrous and vexatious complaints are made. ‘Bad faith actors’ is the term which is often applied to these shit-stirring tranny time wasters. I can think (as I’m sure you can) of a much punchier one word epithet…
