I didn't spot an existing topic, so started one for this week's hot slogan in the culture wars.

* The frogman's AWOL form his Clacton job, whining about it to his American handlers.

* Yesterday's "martyr" (The bloke who wrote Father Ted) is today's court defendent - seems it wasn't just "hurty words".


Graham Linehan goes on trial over alleged harassment of trans woman

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn0x2kx08wdo

Father Ted co-creator Graham Linehan has gone on trial in London on charges of harassment and criminal damage against a transgender woman.

The Irish comedy writer, who also created The IT Crowd and Black Books, has pleaded not guilty to the two charges.

Before going into Westminster Magistrates' Court, the 57-year-old did not speak to the media but did pose with a supporter's sign saying "There's no such thing as a 'transgender child"' on one side and "Keep men out of women's sports" on the other.

This trial is not connected to the allegations that led to his much-publicised arrest at Heathrow Airport on Monday.

Farage is in the USA demanding that a foreign government impose sanctions on the UK because we don't allow free speech. Meanwhile here are his supporters chasing off a local who complains that their protests keep him awake at night. They didn't call him "woke" because that would require a certain level of wit, instead they called him a "Lefty in-Phil-traytor" and a "peee-dough" and chased him away.
