John Cleese has been accused of transphobia after joking that he would like to be a Cambodian police woman in a series of tweets defending Harry Potter author JK Rowling.

The British comedian, 81, issued numerous rebukes to fellow Twitter users on Sunday after one reposted a September 30 tweet from Cleese in support of Rowling, 55, who has been repeatedly accused of transphobia.

The September post read: 'Dear Twits, I have added my name to the signatories of the letter in solidarity with JK Rowling,' before listing a number of other famous names who had signed the letter including the authors Ian McEwan and Lionel Shriver.

On Sunday, a user shared a screenshot of the message, asking Cleese 'Why the f**k can't you just let people be who they want to be?

He complains about cancel culture and censorship, and rightfully so. But then goes ahead and jumps on the woke bandwagon by whining about Trump and the monarchy.

I support him 110%

Trannies will never be a real woman
Trannies will never have a real womb
Trannies will always have to dilate
Trannies will always reek of shit and rotting flesh

Sick.

"Why the f**k can't you just let people be who they want to be?"

Because those people want to force everyone else to play along with their delusions. Fuck that.
