You said it was clearly a joke given the context.
The context was @ing someone in with abuse, which clearly falls under the malicious communications act.
You haven't said why it is clearly a joke given that context.

I'm not sure it's even technically abuse.
There's no threat there. There's no profanity. According to case law it would not be considered grossly offensive. The only thing it actually contains is an implication that she's ugly. I think you'd need some pretty interesting chicanery to actually classify this as abuse from a legal standpoint.

Try posting notes through
your neighbours' letterbox with his joke on them. See how you get on.

Just because I wouldn't post it through my neighbours post box,
doesn't mean it isn't a joke. Your face for example.
