Father Ted co-creator and pro-women campaigner Graham Linehan has had his criminal damage conviction overturned. It must be Friday…
Linehan was found guilty of damaging a transgender activist Sophia Brooks’ phone during an altercation in Westminster on 19 October 2024. At Southwark crown court judge Mrs Justice Amanda Tipples overruled his conviction:
“Having considered all the evidence before us, we cannot be sure that the damage to the complainant’s phone was caused by Mr Linehan on the evening of the 19th of October 2024. We therefore found Mr Linehan not guilty of the offence.”
So ends that ordeal…
Red Wall Labour backbencher Jonathan Brash told GB News that Starmer should resign:
“I’m completely fed up about it, and I think it’s got to the point now where I genuinely think that, as far as the Prime Minister is concerned, it’s not a case of if, it’s when.”
