I’d missed this:
https://freespeechunion.org/feminist-campaigner-accuses-police-of-bullying-her-over-tweet-about-trans-doctor/> Maya Forstater, the director of gender critical campaign group Sex Matters, told the Times that the Metropolitan Police is examining a post on X, formerly Twitter from June 2023 in which she said Dr Kamilla Kamaruddin “enjoys intimately examining female patients without their consent”.
> The alleged offence is punishable by up to two years in prison. […]
> Forstater believes she is the victim of “bullying and harassment” because of her views and has not ruled out legal action against the police.
> “I think the investigation shouldn’t have even got as far as questioning me,” she told the Times. “My tweet isn’t even something that would get deleted by Twitter, let alone for it to be a crime. Being threatened with arrest and then having a police investigation hanging over my head for almost a year now has been very stressful.”
