1/ Members of the jury, let us examine, if we may, the homophobia of Jolyon Maugham, the helium voiced man who likes to kill small animals while cross dressing in the shadow of his windmill.
Consider this if you would.
Consider this if you would.
2/ Imagine you are a heterosexual man and father. Let us say you've adopted a position on trans and some gays disagree.
At this juncture you face a fork in the road any grown man might meet with equanimity
It's open to you to say "well, these are women involved in gay rights"

3/ You could think "Bev Jackson was at the original Pride, Kate Harris worked for Stonewall, Malcolm Clarke was a pioneer of gay rights at Glasgow University".
That's open to you. You could think that. You could watch their interviews. You could respect them.

4/ They're hardly given to hyperbole. Bev is always considered and compassionate. Judge for yourself. This is a women who fought for gay rights before this tax lawyer knew they were a thing. Hardly a hate preaching fire brand is she?
5/ What about Kate? Well, again, judge for yourself. You might think you see here a considered and composed senior lesbian in our movement who balances advocacy with deep, deep compassion.
6/ What about the absolute man, Clark. Well, listen to him yourself. Does this sound like a hateful man who should be legally driven from public life? Or does it sound like a veteran gay man who cares about the next generation?
7/ If you need more evidence how about Allison Bailey, I challenge you to find a woman of more gravitas, intellect and decency. Is this the rant of a hate preacher? Or is it a lesbian voice Joylon doesn't want to hear?
8/ Let us be clear. Heterosexuals like Susie Green at Mermaids and Joylon Maugham at the Good Laugh Project believe they should decide what homosexual voices are heard and which are harassed through litigation. It was him and his friend who cooked up this case.
9/ It is his fault Kate Harris was reduced to tears in evidence when the Mermaid's silk said in open court that some lesbians have penises. That is a sight unthinkable for any other minority. But that is his work. He decided to do that. He went after lesbians who say no.
10/ In so doing he is a virulent homophobe who attacks the homosexual right to political assembly and civic advocacy. He is a straight man who thinks he should have the right to say what gay people can think
11/ Us gay people have had enough of the gender abattoirs he supports where young gay people are told they need surgical correction. We have had enough of men like him telling us lesbians have penises and we have to get used to it.
12/ We are tired of his incursion into our minority group and his straight man command that we shut up if we don't agree with him.
No Joylon
That means no
You, in 2022 actively tried to silence gays - that makes you a late stage homophobe

13/ And that with be your political epitaph, you will be up there with Mary Whitehouse and Owen Jones as malign forces who told gays what to do and couldn't accept dissent.
14/ I very much hope you lose your case against the alliance after which your homophobic company should be investigated by the EHRC.
