I read an excerpt from his book in an article and was appalled by the way the first wife was spoken about. I wondered if she was around to agree to her dirty laundry being published like that.

Woah! This is scary. It's so wrong. It's completely out of control.
Just seen that someone has been arrested for making an offensive tweet re Captain Tom. I haven't seen the tweet, and I'm not sure what isn't classed as offensive nowadays, but for the amount of trolling that goes on twitter in general i can't believe this is what is taken seriously of all things.
Just seen this article, does anyone know the tweet in question? What was said??
I guess it will come out a week on Wednesday what the tweet was. You'd think police Scotland had more pressing issues
A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: "On Friday 5 February 2021, we received a report of an offensive tweet about Captain Sir Tom Moore who died on Tuesday 2 February.
"A 35-year-old man has subsequently been arrested and charged in connection with communication offences and is due to appear at Lanark Sheriff Court on Wednesday 17 February."
Edit apparently the tweet was:
Only good British soldier is a dead one (paraphrased)
i think it was by someone with a significant following as lots seem to have seen it and say it came from a Scottish nationalist so maybe they're treating it like they would a newspaper or tv station saying it?

Apparently this is the offensive tweet that caused the person who posted it to be arrested.
That’s an awful tweet.
I’m not medical but doesn’t pneumonia usually occur as a secondary illness? That would explain why Captain Tom looked so awful in the photos. He was poorly while his family were trailing him round everywhere. They must have noticed.

I swear to flipping god this country has gone bonkers with pointless gestures. Imagine instead of a zombie apocalypse we will be taken over by an army of captain Tom balloons and cakes 
Awful tweet, but does it warrant all that police and court time?
If someone posted something similar on tattle (aimed at anyone) it would get reported in minutes and they'd be banned a few minutes later.

We all might end up getting traced and sent to court for voicing opinions!.
There a big statue to him getting unveiled on the regional news tonight.

I think of all the times the police have let down women in domestic violence cases yet they can trace someone down on the internet for a vile tweet that probably should’ve been just a banning more than anything...
That's just nasty like, not even funny
I was thinking may be his family had been told he was ill and wouldn't last much longer hence the holiday and your comment would add weight to that
At last, a tribute to Sir Tom that doesn't make a fool of both he and its creator.
I wonder who he’s looking for the £60,000 off .
That’s my nightmare for tonight sorted
.I’m sorry the sculptor definitely seems to be one of the more sane ones but It looks nothing like him.

Looks a little camp, that.
