arly last week, Till posted an anti-trans meme which resulted in police reports being filed against him, as reported by The Liverpool Echo.
The mocked-up image of a pregnant trans woman at an ultrasound appointment earned him a temporary Instagram ban, as well as an investigation by Merseyside Police following complaints that the post could “stoke homophobia and transphobia”.
The force told the Echo that investigations are ongoing.
Till has replied to the controversy in an Instagram video, in which he said he “has transgender friends who thought it was hilarious” and that he knew the meme was “going to get a backlash”.
“I’m always posting very controversial things,” he explained, saying his post had only drawn complaints from the “offended brigade”.
To summarise, the UFC fighter posted a short statement: “You can’t cancel someone who doesn’t give a s**t.”
Since then, he’s doubled down on Twitter by promising “even more offensive” posts in the future. “Turn post notifications on,” he wrote.
