Linda Reynolds is a fucking ghoul. No amount of kindly worded articles in The Australian will convince me otherwise. Of all the paths she could’ve chosen, she picked silencing and harassing survivors. History will remember you for exactly what you are.

Let's remember that when #LilieJame's killer, Paul Thijssen started at #StAndrews school: -the headmaster had recently downplayed a male teacher being caught upskirting 3 female students -that teacher (who was a son of a judge) was convicted but allowed to serve his sentence (1/3

The misogyny is breathtakingly blatant; this is in clear breach of the standards, defamatory and disgusting
