And now his target is the trans community.

You may or may not agree with his views, but you don't get to pretend this action isn't part of a wider programme intended to enforce fundamentalist Christian ideology on all of us.

These are legal actions that use the courts to enforce a personal morality on the broader public by impeding either free speech or individual autonomy.

He also acted as the solicitor to Joanna Jepson, who brought a judicial review challenging the legality of aborting a fetus based on disability.

He's also brought cases to challenge women's reproductive rights, including trying to secure an injunction to force a woman to have her ex-partner's baby.

He advised the Christian Institute on their private prosecution against the BBC for airing Stewart Lee's Jerry Springer: The Opera, and their failed attempt to seek a judicial review of that decision. Despite losing at every turn, the show was killed.

It's centralised lawfare brought by a lawyer who, as well as spearheading many anti-trans legal actions, has also worked hard to impose their regressive values on institutions they disagree with. It includes numerous attacks on free speech.

Here are some examples

It's obvious lawfare

And the lawyer, of course, is Paul Conrathe.

Also behind the letter before action to Girl Guides with a history of repressive lawfare including many that are solidly anti-women rights

This is your ally

I don't think this is a good faith attempt to claim for any real damages but an attempt to get the university to avoid legal action with the aim of getting a meaningless concession about the lawfulness of allowing fringe views to be protested

The event went forward, the talk happened, and it was policed so the rights of both sides were balanced.

The letter is asking for the Uni to admit they broke the law, despite that having no legal weight

Webb's behaviour is particularly insidious as he used his Today programme platform to push his views; the license fee and, in turn, the general public paid him to spout his bigotry.

Yet it's @robinince.bsky.social 's benign support for many causes, outside of his BBC work, that's punished.

The Fern is the star

The show should be called ‘Between Two Twats’

How on earth could anyone come to the conclusion that Robbie Gibb would try and silence opinions that didn't align to his own political beliefs?!?!

For those who don't want to dive into Graham's mad world, here's his list of enemies from the article:

Ardal O’Hanlon
Arthur Mathews
Bill Bailey
Amelia Bullmore
Tim Heidecker
Adam Buxton
Jon Ronson
Richard Herring
Stewart Lee
Anyone who sleeps well in a King-sized bed

What is clear is that those who knew him best stopped answering the phone as he went beligerantly mad.

According to Graham, that's due to their own failings, rather than his increasingly aggressive hectoring behaviour. He writes about it in the Telegraph.

It does make you wonder whether Ted's character flaws (pompous, self-important, petty, idolising American culture) were written by Linehan as virtues, or by Mathews as a playful dig at his comedy writing partner.

Who knows.
