  1. Think it would have been better to let him tuen up and have a very bad turn out because of his views and no longer being funny. Cancelling him only give him more oxygen for his nonsense.

  2. >Linehan, a vocal critic of aspects of the trans rights movement

    Quite a mild way of saying he’s such an obsessed transphobe that his wife left him.

    The rest of the article is written as if either the editor is sympathetic or simply afraid of being sued for saying anything negative about him.

  3. Checked his twitter to see if he’s still tweeting about trans stuff. Found a 1 *minute* old tweet of him going at it again…

  4. I’ve listened to him before and nowhere did i get an impression he wished harm on trans people. He didnt want kids to be drugged. And the UK government shut down the clinic for drugging kids iirrc.

  5. Long before his own trans controversy, he supported people being criminally convicted for jokes. I feel like a hipster Glinner hater, hated him long before it was cool. Hypocritical moron

  6. I bet you he’s tormented with desires to be with a trans person that he’s lashing out.. no one can be that obsessed with something that has absolutely no business of theirs unless they’re hiding something

  7. We can now add the city of Leith to things that have left Graham Linehan. Previous entrants to this established hall include his writing career, his ex-wife and his children.

  8. Why is he booked for things and then cancelled? He’s been saying this stuff for years it’s not new

  9. This man thinks about trans people more than I do (an actual trans person)

  10. Looking through his Twitter. He’s a very confused mix of pretty good takedowns of Tories and brexiteers….. Then the man has a very serious vendetta against shit that has nothing to do with him. Very weird hobby obsession.
