  1. Hatun Tash - a slightly-built, fairly small woman in her early thirties, preaching Christanity at Speaker's Corner in Hyde Park, London on a Sunday, stabbed in the neck by a Muslim bystander, and very lucky not to be murdered. SHE was arrested by the eight or so police officers standing around, and carried off in a police van - to hospital, in the first instance. The perpetrator jogged - not sprinted - off, and no-one pursued him. He has never been apprehended.😡

  2. Arresting Hatun Tash: easier to arrest a slightly built, unaccompanied, unarmed woman than to disperse a baying mob of 40 men who will almost certainly be violent and may be armed.
    421
  3. The point about these perpetrators is that they systematically targeted the most vulnerable of the native population.
    328
  4. It's just victim blaming. 'Someone stabbed you, therefore you must have done something to provoke this. Therefore you are bad.'
    311
  5. Callum, the E in DIE does not stand for equality (of opportunity). It stands for EQUITY (of outcome). Whenever you hear the word 'equity' you know that you are listening to a Queer theorist.
    273
  6. Let's HOPE they fear it! Maggie Oliver has NAMES and RECEIPTS for senior Police Officers. I can't wait to see them in the dock. Stay safe, Maggie.
    254
  7. The RAF had to pay out £155,000 - of MY money.
    248
  8. A Ugandan journalist/newspaper Editor - who wrote a book on this (I can't remember his name) - said, 'No aid! Aid is poor people in rich countries giving money to rich people in poor countries'.
    218
  9. 'Islamophobia' is a word empty of meaning. A phobia is an irrational - sometimes crippling - fear of something that reasonably or normally presents no danger to the person. Islam presents an existential danger to our Society. This is explicitly stated in its texts and by its adherents. Therefore it is perfectly rational to fear it. The fear of Islam cannot, by definition, be a phobia.
    217
  10. Halal should be banned in Britain, as it is inhumane by our definition. Postal voting should be cut down to the barest minimum. There should be no interpretation or translation of foreign languages into English at taxpayers' expense. Face coverings dhould be banned in public. There should be one law for all, everyone equal before the law - all statutory law should be applied strictly, for example, to alien-type crimes such as FGM.
    212
  11. There is no room for irony in this argument. The physical safety and earned space (as in sport) of real women are being jeopardized, and this is totally unacceptable. The grooming of children into irreversible mutilations of their bodies - especially in the US - is simply criminal.
    212
  12. How about the inhabitants of Mirpur contributing to a fund for the compensation of the British victims of the 'grooming gangs'?
    178
  13. There is a story that there are about 700 Muslims in the Home Office who are organized to promote the cause and benefit of Muslims in Britain.
    169
  14. Another point about the Scottish Nonce-sense Party's proposed 'gender recognition Bill' is that, once a person had 'transed', their 'dead name' could be erased from ALL legal documents, so that a sex offender, including a child rapist, could apply for a job as, for example, a nursery teacher without anyone having any means of knowing their previous history.
    168
  15. I don't think H is killing his family. I think he is committing slow-motion suicide in public, which is very distressing to watch.
    160
  16. FGM: it has been an indictable criminal offence for 37 years, with a sentence of 14 years in prison. I believe that one person has been convicted. I believe that routine examinations by School Nurses (the 'nit nurse') were disbanded because certain members of the 'immigrant community' objected to them - they want to keep practising their 'culture'.
    156
  17. I want to see Raja Miah, MBE, Tommy Robinson, and Maggie Oliver elevated to the House of Lords.
    152
  18. Non-trivial point: the Head of Mermaids flew her 16-year-old son out to Thailand to have him castrated.
    137
  19. Prisoners: not 'Asian' - Muslim. Do not include Hindus, Jains, Buddhists.
    126
  20. We are led by Maoists.
    121
  21. The bomb set off in the taxi in the car park of the maternity hospital in Liverpool, on Remembrance Day, 11 November, a few years ago: The passenger wanted to be taken to (I think) the Anglican Cathedral in Liverpool. As the ride progressed, and the time approached 11.00 am (the time when the Cathedral would be packed, and the Silence would be starting), the driver became increasingly suspicious of the passenger who seemed to be becoming increasingly impatient and aggressive. The driver then decided not to drive to the Cathedral, but instead drove into the deserted hospital car park. He then jumped out of the taxi, locking it automatically from the outside, whereupon the passenger detonated his explosives and died in the ensuing inferno in the taxi. By his close observation and quick thinking this taxi driver probably saved the lives and limbs of hundreds of innocent people. It is a disgrace that he has not been awarded the George Medal.
    100
  22. Kemi's 'guidelines' and 'advice': not enough. We need *legislation*. Teachers teach children lies - they get sacked immediately, they are expelled from the Profession, they are prosecuted (custodial sentences).
    94
  23. I have to paraphrase here: Philippe Sands clip: 'Britain is the only country where you can represent the opposing side against Britain in a court case, win it, and still be welcomed with open arms.'
    91
  24. Bail for Q Brown: $100,000. Bail for Kyle Rittenhouse: $2 million.
    82
  25. Who wrote this? I want names, religious affiliations, CVs, and a forensic examination of all their electronic devices.
    80
  26. A few years ago some immigrants slaughtered a sheep by cutting its throat into the street drain in broad daylight in a residential area. This was in Ealing, West London. They were prosecuted.
    79
  27. The CIA kept trying to make Fidel Castro's beard fall out, also trying to get him to smoke exploding cigars.
    71
  28. One of the problems with such organisations is that so much depends on who is the Director. Tedros Gebreyesos is the first Director not to be medically qualified (I think his doctorate is in earth sciences). He presided - when he was Minister of Health in his country - over three cholera epidemics, learning nothing from experience. He was made Director of the WHO because he - and the WHO - is the creature of the Emperor of China. He allowed Covid to become a pandemic at China's orders - acquiescing to the continuation of flights from China to the rest of the World - at orders from China - even after China had banned internal flights
    70
  29. Discrimination against white men: also in the BBC - also listen to Andrew Gold's experience.
    65
  30. I saw a video of several thousand pro-Israeli Jews and non-Jews demonstrating in London on a Saturday afternoon - they were strictly corralled by the police, while the 'pro-Palestinian' demonstration blocked many roads in central London for hours, as has been the case every Saturday since 7 October 2023. A man came and stood in front of the pro-Israeli crowd - who were prevented by the police from changing their location - and, facing them, gave a Hitler salute. That is the only Hitler salute I have seen, on video or in real life.
    65
  31. The Falkland Islands would not be going BACK to Argentina. The Islands were NEVER Argentinian.
    59
  32. If I thought that 'We're coming for your children' was ironical, I would simply think it was in bad taste. But since I know it is a literal intention, and is actually practised throughout the USA and UK in primary schools upwards, I can only regard it as a sinister gloating threat.
    56
  33. It's such a pity that the Government ignored Professor Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University in March 2020, Professor Bhattacharya (of Yale?), or the other medics who warned against Lockdowns.
    51
  34. He was actually Scottish. He came out of his house and saw 'Palestinian' flags displayed on lamp-posts and around shops all over the streets where he lived in Bethnal Green. He implied via a film clip posted on Facebook that he thought that this was inappropriate, and several police came to his house in the night and arrested him in front of his wife who apparently is not in the best of health.
    49
  35. I remember asking a Muslim undergraduate at UCL if he was British - by my definition he was - and he looked at his shuffling feet, avoiding my eye, and said, 'I'm Muslim'. I have been banging on for aeons about there being one law for one group of people and another law for another group of people in this country. Also, about the need to de-recognise Sharia law.😒
    48
  36. In Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World', everyone got 'euthanised' at age 66, even if they seemed to be in good health and even looked quite young.
    48
  37. It is not tolerable to accept large numbers of people within a society who DO NOT RECOGNISE the laws of that society.
    48
  38. Farage wants Charlie Mullins as a token 'working-class' acceptable member and friend, because he has a Cockney accent. This is to try to offset accusations of snobbishness regarding Farage's attacks on Tommy Robinson.
    47
  39. The only way a multi-religious, multi-cultural Society can continue to exist is if EVERYONE recognises the Law of the land, and there is one Law for all, everyone equal before the law. This is not the case in Britain today. There is one law for one group of people, and another law for another group of people.
    47
  40. Recommended: Andy Ngo's book, 'Inside AntiFa'. He is on their death list, a very courageous man.
    44
  41. It's not happening. The people of the neighbouring island (Luing) promised to invade it if it happened.
    43
  42. 'German ''far right'' [my quotation marks] has first big win since Nazis.' - the BBC quoting 'The Times', 2 September 2024.
    43
  43. It's not just police officers. It's also Labour Councils. Recommended: Raja Miah's U-tube videos - he concentrates on Oldham, his home town - posted under 'Recusant Nine'.
    39
  44. 'Come back when you're sober.' If a 13-year-old is drunk it is the duty of a responsible adult to find out why - we need the detailed back story of that. Why was that not done in the police station? Who is going to be sacked?
    38
  45. In the video, he said, 'Please'.
    38
  46. How enjoyable is it to be in a crowd like that? To me, it looks like being in Waterloo Station trying to get home in the rush hour when all the trains have been cancelled.
    36
  47. If a 12-year-old is drunk, she/he needs to be guarded until sober, and the back-story of the drunkenness investigated. You do not tell them just to get out of your sight - if you are an adult, far less a police officer.
    36
  48. If I were a parent in Swindon, I would home-school - seriously!
    35
  49. God help us when we get an 'Islamophobia'/Blasphemy law.
    34
  50. Suella Braverman also said, 'There is two-tier policing in this country, and it is unacceptable'. That was apparently unacceptable.
    34
  51. And Kristeva, Cixous, Irigaray - not only French (by my definition) but also women!
    34
  52. I am caused extreme anxiety at the sight of the so-called 'Pride' flag, in any of its manifestations - shoe-laces, surgical masks, stickers, hair-ribbons, watch-straps, etc -🤔 as it reminds me of the frighteningly low average IQ of humans on this Earth. Can I get anyone - including that shop - who displays it in any form to be nicked?
    33
  53. Charlie Peters of GB News says there are at least 50 towns in England that have had suffered from these crimes.
    33
  54. Benefits.
    31
  55. Do the parents of these Welsh girls know how their daughters are being used?
    31
  56. Hizb ut-Tahrir was banned in nearly every other country, including many Muslim countries, before it was banned in Britain in 2024.
    29
  57. 50,000 Huguenots fled actual massacre (St Bartholomew's Eve) to settle in England. Their immediate emergency support was met by voluntary public subscriptions (crowd funding). Very quickly they were self-supporting as they brought industry (eg textiles) with them, and actually provided work for the existing population.
    29
  58. The Chinese are mining Afghanistan's lithium like mad at this moment. Also, expect an invasion of Taiwan in the next two years.
    29
  59. Boris Johnson as Mayor of London: 1 Encouraged myriads of Russian oligarchs to settle in London ('They will bring lots of money into London.') He did not look at how New York City taxes foreigners who buy property in the city, but kept all the concessions that foreigners have when buying property in London. Result: the property prices in London rocketed, as the oligarchs could pay silly cash for luxury accommodation without even seeing it, far less having it professionally surveyed. 2 He had a harebrained vanity project of a garden bridge across the Thames where none was needed. £54 million of taxpayers' money was spent, and nothing appeared. Meanwhile, Hammersmith Bridge, at 150 years old, having carried the weight of traffic in the past 40 years that it was never designed to carry, has had to be closed for repair for the past four years - for a year or so not even pedestrians were allowed to cross it - and we don't know when it will open. This causes huge congestion in Putney and elsewhere. The delay in repairing it has been caused by an argument between the Greater London Council and Hammersmith and Fulham Borough Council as to who is going to foot the bill, which will be £54 million. 3 He allowed the erection of eyesore buildings like the Walkie-Talkie which, during a heatwave in July, 2013 melted cars in the street below. The windows in its concave shape concentrated the sun's rays and reflected them back on to parked cars, and the heat buckled their doors so that they couldn't be opened. (This problem has now been fixed.) Another building that he allowed is the excrescence called The Shard, which completely ruins the view from Primrose Hill.
    28
  60. Susie Green's husband was homophobic. Their son showed what they both thought were 'feminine' traits at a very early age, eg liking pink as a colour, wanting to play with 'girls' toys. The father was very worried about this, and pushed for the 'gayness', as he thought it was, to be'Transed' away. He would rather have a straight daughter than a gay son. He encouraged the son to be dressed as a girl, long hair, new name, etc at pre-school age.
    27
  61. A week or so ago, a woman (Member of the Scottish 'Parliament') was summarily ejected from the Scottish 'Parliament' for wearing a scarf carrying the Suffragette colours (green, purple and white).
    26
  62. Stay safe, Calvin.
    25
  63. We need to find out the extrnt of the complicity of the Police, Social Services, Councils, MPs and anyone else.
    25
  64. Greece's economy was not helped by tax evasion becoming an accepted national sport.
    25
  65. This is just another reason why we MUST resign from the WHO sooner than immediately. But will we? Will we my granny's cat!😡
    24
  66. 'I am Jazz'. I saw the U-tube Exulansic's analysis of this tragic story. It is harrowing, and all children and adolescents must be protected from this kind of abuse. Jail is loudly called for.
    23
  67. I heard a Ugandan journalist - who later became editor of his paper - and author saying the same thing. He said, 'No foreign aid. Make these people [political leaders] balance their books!'
    23
  68. Leaving out Boris Johnson's bad record as Mayor of London, what his great sin as PM was not coming out of the EU properly, ie leaving the ECHR, so as not to throw Northern Ireland under the bus, not to insult the fishing industry, and to enable a rational policy on immigration (especially stopping entirely illegal immigration).
    22
  69. The cousin-cousin marriage habit - ie, not as a one-off event, but generation after generation - causes huge medical problems and causes enormous expense to the NHS. (Perhaps you could get the actual figures for this, Callum.) Ask the GPs of Bradford. I believe these marriages - often forced or coerced - are meant to keep money within the family.
    22
  70. What proportion of The Lotus Eaters are fathers of families? Btw, it is now believed that older fathers - some of whom are very famous, and very proud of having become aged fathers - have an increased chance of begetting children who have schizophrenia or autism - not as immediately obvious as Down Syndrome, so not so publicly culpable at having been produced.
    22
  71. The price Britain paid for fighting slavery around the World: this was not only economic; it was also paid in blood by the deaths of several thousand British sailors in the conflicts with slave ships.
    21
  72. 'They normalise pathology so as to pathologise normalcy.' - Exulansic.
    21
  73. The terms 'gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' have no place outside a grammar book. Biological organisms do not have a gender. They have a sex - female or male (unless they are a member of a group like earthworms or gastropods which are hermaphrodite). A biological human male having magical lady-feelings does not thereby become female. He may be a trans-sexual male who, if he is sincere, may undergo what may sound like horrendous surgical and medical procedures in order to make themselves look female and feel happier in themselves. I have every sympathy for such a person, and think that they should not be persecuted or discriminated against in normal life. However, they are extremely rare statistically, and for the purposes of women's spaces and sports, should not be granted the status of women.
    21
  74. The Trans lobby is defining as 'aversion therapy' psychiatrists and psychologists talking to children and adolescents about their feelings of gender dysphoria, which are very often, if not usually, accompanied by anxiety state, ADHD, autism, depression. A mental health professional trying to tease out these disorders with a view to alleviating them is now defined as 'conversion therapy' and conflated with the aversion therapy that was, especially in the US, inflicted on homosexuals, involving aversive stimuli, which is as ineffective as it is unethical.
    21
  75. A civil engineer told me that if you really, really know your stuff, arithmetically and geometrically, *and you have the labour*, you can do anything with a stick and a piece of string.
    20
  76. It's to keep U-tube happy.
    20
  77. God help Welsh children against the Queer in the Education System and elsewhere!
    20
  78. The WEF, EU, UN/UNHCR, Klaus Schwab (retired), Keir Starmer, et al think so.
    18
  79. Arianna Grande concert: victims nearly all young girls (young teenagers and the youngest aged eight). Rudakubana: attacked young girls aged 7 and a few years older.
    18
  80. Not everyone has a solicitor on speed dial. I suppose the thing to do is to join the Free Speech Union.
    18
  81. Josh, this has been happening in Oxford Street (a week ago last Friday late afternoon) and Nottingham (a few days ago). Copying US teenagers?
    18
  82. UKIP and Nick Tenconi 🥰
    17
  83. A judge cannot deem who is and is not a journalist. A journalist is a person who discovers facts and publishes them to be read/seen by the public.
    16
  84. Reform UK has already rejected Beau on the say-so of Hate Not Hope.
    16
  85. As a Celtic-Norse person, I and my little friends always celebrated Samhain (pronounced Sowwen), halfway between the autumnal equinox and the winter solstice - the end of all harvests, and the beginning of winter, the time when the veil between our world and the underworld is at its thinnest, therefore spirits may sometimes cross it. We had great fun disguised (we were guisers), going round the town knocking on doors of complete strangers who accepted us into their houses, judging our dressing up, and we had to do a 'turn' - a song, poem, story for example, in return for tangerines, apples, hazelnuts, a few coins. We had no idea who the people were, and they had no idea who we were. It was a novelty for everyone. Disguising oneself is necessary in case spirits of people who didn't like you too much came through from the underworld and did you a mischief. You also provided food and entertainment for the fairies. Children's Halloween parties were fun - ducking for apples, etc. All Hallows' Eve is the Christianised name of the festval, followed by a recognition of the dead in All Saints' Dsy and All Souls' Day, on 1 and 2 November. It is now a children's festival, in my book.🙂
    16
  86. A small waist is associated with a young girl - who probably has not yet had children - and who is not already visibly pregnant. A man wants a woman who is not already pregnant. Humans have hidden ovulation and hidden pregnancy - they do not start to 'show' until the fourth or fifth month (although someone who knows the woman well may know she is pregnant at an early stage - similarly with ovulation). There are differences in taste. Also, females are attracted to males in different modalities - not just vision. (Sorry, pheromones)
    16
  87. Don't be so sure that the Senior Police Officers, the Councillors, even some MPs, have 'done nothing'. Look for Complicity in many cases and even Perpetration in some cases.
    16
  88. David Perry (taxi driver) should receive the George medal for his quick thinking and courage.
    15
  89. You can compromise yourself into non-existence.
    15
  90. It's high time that Nigel Farage stopped throwing Tommy Robinson under the bus.
    15
  91. It's a good thing that immigrants don't need housing, don't have children that need educating, ever get ill, or grow old. Ponzi schemes always work and are a good thing - especially demographic Ponzi schemes. I do so look forward to haram 'Weatern' music being banned - Afghanistan shows the way! In fact, I was thinking of emigrating there myself.
    15
  92. Fear not. The third chapter is: 'I was always against it'.
    15
  93. They still will, if they get the chance.
    15
  94. M Macron et al - I am hereby addressing you - Elon Musk has every right to give his informed opinion on any subject or action happening anywhere in the World, as do I. As a human being with a conscience who knows the difference between right and wrong, his enormous wealth is irrelevant to his eligibility to do this, as is my relative financial poverty.
    15
  95. It wasn't because Wallis Simpson was American. It was because she was a divorcee, and that was against the doctrine of the Anglican Church. See also Princess Margaret.
    15
  96. As a Scottish Unionist, all this makes me ashamed.
    14
  97. Recommended U-tube channels: Benjamin Boyce's interviews with psychologists and detransitioners. Exulansic's U-tube podcasts. The most harrowing is about Jazz Jennings.
    14
  98. It seems to me that the English legal system, being so dependent on precedent, is vulnerable to eccentric - even egregious - decisions by judges.
    14
  99. Don't forget that the Japanese translator of 'The Satanic Verses' was murdered in 1989, as was the Norwegian publisher, and Theo van Gogh in the Netherlands. A lot of people died in riots in various parts of the World.
    14
  100. Alex Bellfield (who is probably not perfect) was sentenced to four years for stalking - although it was stated by the court that he had never stalked anyone physically. The partially sighted lady who accidentally knocked a cyclist who was riding towards her on a narrow pavement into the path of a car whose driver did not make an emergency stop in time, thus killing the cyclist, got three years for manslaughter.
    14
  101. One is quite liable to be mad or semi-mad during puberty. It is, I think, perfectly normal to be dissatisfied/hate one's body at this time (too fat, too thin, fat in the wrong places, no waist, etc). The last thing an adolescent girl at this time is mad social media and social contagion.
    14
  102. The term 'crusade' has different meanings in different contexts. It can mean a moral resolution - a crusade against littering, or a crusade against drug-addiction, for example.
    14
  103. In Christianity, Pride is the biggest of the Deadly Sins
    13
  104. In this country there is a shortage of 'desirable' children to adopt, ie infants who have not been damaged by suffering several years of abuse prior to adoption, who have no disabilities, etc. Not everyone is suited to be a parent. It is better not to be a parent than to be a bad parent.
    13
  105. Ignorance of the Law is not a Defence. 🤔
    13
  106. 'They are all doctors and engineers.' The work of both these professions is rapidly being taken over by AI. So, do we need any more?
    13
  107. Norway left the EU in 1983 to save its fishing industry.
    12
  108. Rape has in effect been legalized for years - not taken seriously, hardly any convictions, derisory sentences.
    12
  109. The Swedes found that voluntary social distancing appeared to limit the spread ov Covid. In other words, treating people like responsible adults who are able to make considered judgements can work.
    12
  110. My sympathy goes to his wife and children. Is it tactless of me to give them a mensh?
    12
  111. Until I was 12 I don't remember having any judgements towards my body at all. I think I was completely unaware of it. I liked cycling, climbing trees, walking along walls, and my ambition was to be a flying-trapeze artist - my favourite circus act. Happy days!
    11
  112. Welsh and Scottish Devolution should be repealed.
    11
  113. We need a complete moratorium on all immigration - legal and illegal - for at least five years.
    11
  114. The colonisers of Iceland, who were from Norway, kidnapped many women from Ireland and Scotland to replenish their genetic stock. Icelanders are closely related to Scots. Btw, I have lived in a small town (10,000 - 15,000 population). It is intolerably claustrophobic.
    11
  115. Stop calling it Bonfire Night. That is a BBC pandering. It is called Guy Fawkes Day for a reason.
    11
  116. I saw KJK's 'Let Women Speak' meeting in Oldham on Saturday 10th January 25, on U-tube. It was great, as always.😍
    10
  117. Hans Christian Andersen's tales tend to describe girls suffering physically.
    10
  118. Council housing is not free. Tenants pay rent to the Council.
    10
  119. 'Virtue' signalling.
    10
  120. There should be no 'hate crimes' or - worse - 'non-crime hate incidents' (only the police know what these are, but they go against a person's criminal record, and could prevent that person getting a job). There should be actions which are criminal offences, and those which are not criminal offences. It should be clear which is which.
    10
  121. Ponzi schemes never work. This applies to demographic Ponzi schemes as well.
    10
  122. Paypal have done the same to Dr Colin Wright, biologist, who had left his job as an academic at Penn State University because, as a biologist, he could not agree that there are more than two sexes, and had a U-tube channel explaining biology. See his interview with Triggernometry.
    10
  123. Stay safe, Rupert Lowe.
    10
  124. British politicians in 1989 were extremely mealy mouthed in defending freedom of speech, including Shirley Williams who more or less said that Rushdie had brought the death fatwa on himself by being rude.
    10
  125. I did notice that immediately after Barack Obama paid a visit to Varadker, the latter resigned.🤔
    10
  126. I believe that Malaysia went down the road of allowing Shariah in some cases for Muslims, and it caused lots of difficulties. India too.
    10
  127. It makes you wonder about some of these judges, doesn't it?
    9
  128. That's the wrong flag, dear. That is the flag of the Republic of Ireland (Eire). Ballymena is in the United Kingdom - Northern Ireland (the Six Counties) is British - part of the United Kingdom.
    9
  129. While browsing in Waterstone's bookshop in Putney yesterday, I noticed that they had 'I am Jazz' on the shelf on the children's section. I asked the shop assistant about this, and have a phone number to phone. We'll see . . .
    9
  130. She's a cash cow for her fsmily and associates.
    9
  131. I can't help thinking about that photo of Putin at one end of a table longer than a cricket pitch with, not only Macron, but then subsequently his very own top Generals, cowering at the other end, almost out of sight. This must be significant.
    9
  132. 'No abortion under any circumstances.' This is not the Conservative stance on abortion. It is the Catholic stance.

  133. The Government cannot strip anyone of British citizenship unless they also have citizenship of another country, and would not thereby be rendered stateless which would be against International Law.
    9
  134. As a highly educated, rich Brahmin, maybe she should try living like a Dalit?
    9
  135. Britain needs to have a complete moratorium on all immigration - legal and illegal - for at least five years.
    9
  136. 'Christmas' trees: a German tradition introduced to Britain by Prince Albert in the 19th century. Yuletide needs a big fire, entertaining with plenty of food and drink, and taking evergreen plants into the house - holly, ivy and mistletoe, for example - to remind people that trees will be green again.
    9
  137.  @piping9153  Shetland has promised to secede from Scotland if Scotland becomes 'independent'.

  138. Fathers can be full-time parents while mothers are full-time workers.

  139. Varadker resigned immediately after speaking to Biden's team in New York.
    8
  140. The only place for the term 'gender' IS in a book of grammar, for languages which make common nouns feminine or masculine (or also neuter, as in German). Btw, 'Trans' by Helen Joyce is required reading, as you may have gathered.
    8
  141. Have just read 'Unmasked' by Andy Ngo. It is *required reading*.
    8
  142. Btw, congratulations to Josh for his recent exposition of Prostasia, and the danger of paedophiles pretending to be Organisations that protect children.
    8
  143. To see how the Education System in Wales has been thoroughly captured by Queer-Theory Activists, please look at the U-tube series made by Nigel Thorne, 'terffan man'.
    8
  144. There comes a point where demonstrations, however massive, become a bit pointless. I'm in favour of them up to a point, to put on record what people were thinking. But what should be tried now is to copy Pakistan. The Pakistanis seem to have their Deportations well organised.
    8
  145. Partygate: it demonstrates a complete lack of respect for 'the little people', ie me. However, I have already been treated with contempt by my (Labour) MP. And wee Kim Jong McKrankie wants adolescents - who are by definition ignorant and mad - to be able to be *politicians*!!
    8
  146. They don't care.
    8
  147. Labour MP did not just punch his constituent. He punched him to the ground and kept attacking him when he was lying on the ground! This was caught on CCTV.
    8
  148. Jeremy Hunt's wife regularly appears on the Chinese equivalent of 'The Today Programme' (controlled by the CCP).
    8
  149. I believe the Elon Musk-BBC interview is now being used as teaching material - not for BBC reporters, strangely enough - but for potential BBC interviewees.
    8
  150. Water costs: I pay large sums of money per annum to a Chinese hedge fund that trades under the name of Thames Water.
    8
  151. Rights: it seems to me that the concept of Human Rights has been brought into disrepute by Human Rights often having been conflated with Civil Rights. There are Civil Rights which are not Human Rights, but which are often claimed to be.
    7
  152. Highly recommended U-tube videos: 1 'The transvestite Headteacher' from The Scottish Family Party. (Lotus Eaters, please look at this.) 2 'What is Wrong with the Labour Party?/Rosie Duffield is a Legend', by The Famous Artist Birdie Rose. Brilliant.
    7
  153. Harry, in the event of your having to retrain, I hope you have been benefiting from Professor Rick Beato's advanced guitar tuition.
    7
  154. I believe it was Barmier who suggested that the EU negotiators should 'weaponise' Northern Ireland to cause as many problems for Britain as possible in leaving the EU, with the hope of keeping the UK in the single market and under EU law.
    7
  155. Are the 'multi-families caused by polygamy?
    7
  156. Pakistan has nukes, too. And Iran is working on it . . .
    7
  157. Medics - especially in A&E - use gallows humour too to defuse stress. Who is shocked by this?
    7
  158. After *ONE*.😖
    7
  159. 'Gender' self-identification. The marvellous Mr Menno refers to this as 'magical lady-feelings'.
    7
  160. Btw, I think the Liverpool bomber on Remembrance Sunday was aiming for the Anglican Cathedral. I think it was where he asked the taxi driver to go. If the driver had not become suspicious and driven into the hospital car park, the bomber would have entered a packed Cathedral just after 11.00 am, during the two minutes' silence. I think the taxi driver deserves a medal.
    7
  161. What has C Webbe done to mend the dreadful situation of slave labour in Leicester?
    7
  162. 'The Asian Community' - non-Muslim Asians get upset by this phrase being applied in an over-inclusive way. Indians, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and far-eastern people (eg Chinese and Japanese) do not like to be categorised along with 'Muslim men of Pakistani heritage who have committed heinous crimes'. These people should be described accurately. We have to search for convicted prisoners in British prisons who are Hindu, Sikh or Buddhist - whereas nearly half of prisoners in British prisons are Muslim (5 (?) percent of the general population). The Office of National Statistics (ONS) is now refusing to publish an analysis of crimes committed per ethnicity of the convicted criminal. Other European countries do this.
    7
  163. The amalgamated constituencies will be like the former Regional EU constituencies, with which people felt no connection or identification, and had no influence over.
    6
  164. Too many DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity) cadres on huge salaries in the NHS.
    6
  165. As a lapsed Calvinist, I disapprove strongly of flashing any 'charms', or manipulation of men by 'cry-bullying'. One should dress for office work seriously - a dark, knee-length skirt, dark court shoes and a jacket (not a mohair jersey screaming 'cuddle me'). Btw, we are not lions.
    6
  166. Surely, in law - help me here, lawyers - children cannot have rights, as they cannot take responsibility, and they cannot give informed consent as their knowledge and cognitive ability are, by definition - they're CHILDREN! - very restricted. It is the duty of adults to act at all times, when physically possible, in accordance with their welfare.
    6
  167. Major privatised the railways. Thatcher had already privatised the utilities.
    6
  168. There are only under a third of a million of Icelanders. Therefore to guard against in-breeding, everyone has their genealogy on their phone, so that if you are going on a date, you both check your genealogies to decide whether you are going to be coffee/lunch friends or possibly take things further, if you are not closely related.
    6
  169. Some cultures are better than others.
    6
  170. Why on earth should the children have their movements restricted in an attempt to keep them safe from totally unnecessary predators?
    6
  171. KJK has four children.
    6
  172. Dr Miriam Grossman, psychiatrist, has written a book for parents in the event of their even suspecting that 'pronoun' nonsense, grooming etc is happening in the school. It applies to the American situation but may also be generally useful. She advises 'the nuclear option' straight away, starting with 'get lawyered up'.
    6
  173. The previous day, Hizb-ut-Tahrir (who they? - Ed) were holding a police-protected rally in central London, entailing the closing of several streets. It is worth looking at the footage of it, and especially listening to the speakers - or rather, shouters.
    6
  174. They sll appear to want the return of the British Empire.
    6
  175. Harry and Callum, you are culturally Christian whether you like it or not.
    6
  176. The Taliban have taken possession of the US arsenal. It is a disgrace.
    6
  177. The first person to reach the summit of Mount Everest was the Nepalese Tenzing Norgay. Edmund Hilary thought it appropriate that he should be first, since Nepal was his country.
    6
  178. Many moons ago I saw a notice at a hospital which had had staff cuts - no Casualty Department (that's A&E, children) - saying, 'Casualty: 9 to 5, Monday to Friday'.
    6
  179. He would have been arrested, handcuffed, pepper-sprayed, charged with hate crimes, and had up before the beak.

  180. Harvard is now completely discredited.
    5
  181. It's not men of 'black and Asian origin'. It is men of Pakistani heritage - not Indian, not Sri Lankan, not Chinese, not Vietnamese. PAKISTANI heritage.
    5
  182. The 'Mr Bigs' of illegal drug operations get much more financial reward and power - even political power - than any law-abiding, hard-working person.
    5
  183. I very much hope that this young person was not mutilated, and was able to be rescued.
    5
  184. Queer Theory (see the U-tube videos of the 'EDIJester' who talks about Education, and 'terffan man' (Nigel Thorne) who relates in detail the story of the ideological capture by Queer-Theory Activists in positions of power of the Education System in Wales. The 'Trans' Religion is also an industry (even more so in the USA).
    5
  185. Everyone should wear a swimming cap in a public pool, unless they are totally bald. This is not to protect your hair from the water as, if you swim properly, nothing will do that. It is to protect the pool from your hair.
    5
  186. Some medics on the ground during the height of the HIV-AIDS epidemic, realised that many doctors were reporting deaths from various causes as death from AIDS. The reason for this was that the WHO gave the Institutions money for deaths from AIDS but nothing for deaths from TB, etc. which were more common.
    5
  187. The concept of human rights has been been brought into disrepute by its having been conflated with civil rights. Human rights are the right of a person - no matter how revolting - on the grounds that they are human. For example, they ought not to be tortured to death. Civil rights are negotiable, eg who should be allowed to vote? Enfranchisement, for example, is not a human right.
    5
  188. I note that the headline of the article you quote is in one of those 'child-attractive' typefaces, slightly looking as if it had been hand-drawn by a 'nice' person who was kind and not too strict.
    5
  189. Someone said that it feels good to be on the right side of history. Would it, though, if you lost your job or were banged up for three years?😡
    5
  190. 'It's the sort of thing that happened in South American countries.' Yes, under the direction of the American CIA.
    5
  191. They would be too scared to say anything else on camera.
    5
  192. Film 'Napoleon' by Abel Ganz (1925?). Silent, black and white, with subtitles and inter-titles - it indicates when the characters, eg Nelson, are being quoted verbatim. Try to see it on a big screen - I saw it in NFT1 in the British Film Institute. Six and a half hours plus intermissions. Five stars for everything.
    5
  193. Starmer: his relatively sane words re immigration are cancelled by his support for the 'Trans' Religion/Industry.
    5
  194. I have communicated with my MP twice. She has treated me with utter contempt.
    5
  195. The Saltire is the cross of Saint Andrew. It is not to be compared to a swastika.
    5
  196. Devolution for Scotland and Wales has been a disaster. It should be reversed.
    5
  197. If a 12-year-old appears to be drunk, it is the responsibility of an adult to find out why, ie the detailed back-story of how a child of that age comes to be drunk.
    5
  198. You mean the Maoist people! 😂
    5
  199. The FDA drugs regulator in the USA refused entry into the USA to thalidomide.
    5
  200. Enoch Powell was not expelled from the Conservative Party in 1968 after this speech. Ted Heath expelled him from the Cabinet. Powell left the Conservative Party a few years later to join the DUP in Northern Ireland because he disagreed with Conservative policies.
    5
  201. North Korea.

  202. Thanks once again, Josh and Hugo.
    5
  203.  @clairerideau9015  Same with long beards.
    5
  204. Re progressive attitudes to women in 7th to 8th centuries AD: what did Anglo-Saxon law say about the status of women at this time?
    5
  205. But did Boris Johnson get us out of the EU? Ask the people in Northern Ireland. This must be mended. Also, the fishing industry - it is irrelevant that it is a small proportion of GDP. They have been let down. Also, *immigration*. This is the elephant in the room that is just not being addressed - legal as well as illegal.
    5
  206. It's simply the fact that the Voice of Wales is independent that is intolerable to the Wokeocracy. It's worse under Wee Kim Jong McKrankie.
    4
  207. Recommended: 1. Kemi Badenoch's latest speech in House of Commons. 2. Ayaan Hirsi Ali's conversation with Freddie of UnHerd.

  208. Time to stop giving money to the UN.

  209. How dare you address 'folkx' as 'ladies and gentlemen'! Don't you know this is Transphobic?
    4
  210. Both males and females can vote for THE PARTY OF WOMEN!🙂
    4
  211. NATO did not win because, for every Talib NATO killed, Pakistan threw three more back over the border from one of their many Taliban factories.
    4
  212. The way to deal with an unwanted proposition is to completely ignore it, not interact with the person, and walk quickly away, if possible.
    4
  213. The 'one drop' rule is from the KĶK. Don't they know this?
    4
  214. In the USA, a lot of senior Civil Service positions change with a new Administration - I mean there is a change of personnel - in a way that does not happen in Britain.
    4
  215. I don't think she's mad, just very, very dim.
    4
  216. You could be officially 'unemployed', collecting £25,000 per annum, and then do what benefit cheats have habitually done: have a cash-based sideline on which you pay no tax.
    4
  217. Human milk is different from cows' milk. Cows' milk has to be diluted and have sugar added to it to make it more suitable for human babies.
    4
  218. The Voice of Wales should sue the Welsh police - asl Alex Bellfield.
    4
  219. 1 I am a little bit worried that a conversation is recorded verbatim. Are all conversations recorded? 2 Some people have suggested that Ms Fulani has changed her name from an English name - which is perfectly legal, if she is not trying to defraud anyone. 3 Is it legal to set up a charity to help only people of a particular skin colour? 4 This event happened on Monday. We found out about it on Thursday. Did it take three days to think perhaps that there could be money in this?
    4
  220. The name of the ship on which the West Indians came to Britain in 1949(?), was called 'The Empire Windrush'.
    4
  221. Some inmates of concentration camps did imitate guards in their behaviour towards other prisoners, even saving scraps of uniform to wear if possible. This is called 'identification with the aggressor' and is a sign of complete breakdown of personality.
    4
  222. Claudia Webbe looks as white as the driven snow to me.
    4
  223. If he was wearing a bad wig and a frock you could say it was 'a woman' - like all these rapists (she/her) who magically manage to forcibly impregnate their fellow inmates in American prisons.
    4
  224. I think this is a brilliant idea, Dan. 🙂
    4
  225. 2,000-year history - and before - the Celtic tribes were pretty disunited, which is why the Romans occupied Britannia (roughly modern-day England) for 400 years. However, the Celts had a culture and traded with Gaul and further afield. They did not have underfloor heating or good roads but they were not totally uncultured. Tacitus wrote that the very expensive Hadrian's Wall was built 'to separate the Romans from the Barbarians', but the Caledonian tribes only kept up their constant guerrilla warfare because they regarded themselves as the Resistance against an invading army.
    4
  226. Madness: so is Scottish independence. It could hardly be madder than it is already.
    4
  227. It is also totally disingenuous to conflate pro-choice for abortion with racist eugenicists of the past, but typical, I suppose, of religious fanatics or those who have been brainwashed by them.
    4
  228. If Scotland became 'independent' Hadrian's Wall would have to be reinforced, as the population of the Third World would decant itself into Scotland and immediately board a train to London.
    4
  229. I don't know how someone can sack a man for doing exactly what she says, and then not resign herself.
    4
  230. This threat sounds a bit confected to me - especially the last part.
    4
  231. I don't see how Henry VIII was consanguineous with Catherine Howard. If she was actually the cousin of Anne Boleyn, then she was not genetically related to Henry.
    4
  232. Don't damage the Falkland Islands.
    4
  233. Devolution for both Scotland and Wales has been a disaster.
    4
  234. Things that never cease to amaze me: people who keep banging on about being 'black' who look as white as the driven snow to me (the woman on the right of the screen), and the way Americans whiten their teeth to the extent that they can be seen from outer space (P Cullers).
    4
  235. Also Armin Navabi on U-tube channel 'Atheist Republic'.
    4
  236. Nigel Farage has got to decide whether he wants to be a Westminster-bubble insider or to represent the people. He can't do both.
    4
  237. Dr David Kelly didn't kill himself.
    4
  238. Fantastic work by Steven Woolfe. ☺️
    4
  239. In the USA 'Asians' refers to far-Eastern people - Chinese, Vietnamese, Koreans, and occasionally Japanese. In Britain, 'Asians' usually refers to people who have South Asian heritage - Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh.
    4
  240. Apparently many English translations of the Qur'an are bowdlerised so as not to frighten English speakers too much. You need someone who has read it in the original to relate it to you.
    4
  241. It is pure paranoia. This is sad in an individual, but my goodness is it dangerous in Government!
    4
  242. Vote AMY GALLAGHER for Mayor!

  243. She wasn't invited to the Palace. She went with someone who was.

  244. Callum's research is really superb. 🙂

  245. Bosch: manufacturers of equipment for torture.
    4
  246. I've been looking for Josh's excellent exposition a few days ago of the infiltration of Organisations which are supposed to protect children, by paedophiles. I think he was highlighting an Organisation called Prosatasia (is this the right name?). Is this video still around?
    4
  247. Headline in London's 'Evening Standard', Thursday 29 August 2024: 'Disabled man stabbed to death after car rammed his electric wheelchair'.
    4
  248. St George slew the dragon to whom the people of the country were sacrificing their girls.🙂
    4
  249. I wouldn't say it was 'abstract' multiculturalism. I'd call it 'applied' multiculturalism.
    4
  250. I LOVE the way you all just REFUSE to pronounce foreign names!! Keep it up!!
    4
  251. Odin's Men does something similar on U-tube.
    4
  252. Unexpected consequence of reintroducing sea eagles to Scotland from Norway: they can actually fly around, and they saw that just a few miles away there were lambs which could be snatched - a better effort-to-reward ratio than fishing.
    4
  253. 'The only person who likes me is Guy Verhofstadt.' What an admission!
    4
  254. UKIP
    4
  255. To say the grooming gangs are of 'South Asian' heritage is misleading, as South Asian could include Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi or Sri Langan heritage. In fact, the vast majority of the perpetrators are of British Pakistani Muslim heritage.
    4
  256. The terms 'gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' have no place outside a book of grammar. Biological entities do not have a gender, they have a sex and are either male or female (apart from a few groups like earthworms and gastropods which are hermaphrodite). Not liking football and preferring to make dolls' clothes does not make a little boy a girl, or even have a mythical 'gender' opposing his physically defined sex. He is a boy who may be quite 'camp' and may or may not grow up to be gay. The same goes for a tomboy or girl who may not present in a stereotypical 'feminine' way, who may be a bit 'butch' and who may prefer climbing trees to playing with dolls. She may or may not grow up to be a Lesbian. So what? Have we not moved beyond stereotyping and essentialism? They are the foundations of sexism, which men as women can be victims of.

  257. I liked the Rev Canaan Banana (I think he was President of Malawi).
    3
  258. Dylan has to keep his content coming. It earns him $200,000 per month (before tax?). And then there are the sponsorships ftom cosmetics Companies and Tampax (I kid you not).
    3
  259. Today, Thursday 6 March 2025, is Maundy Thursday. The late Queen Elizabeth used to put money into the hands of some pensioners as a symbol of Christian charity on this day. Has King Charles done this today?
    3
  260. Once a Prof always a Prof. At the Oxford Union she was not speaking about Gender Ideology, but speaking about Freedom of Speech and the problem of causing offence and taking offence. It was salutory to learn that the ostensible students - are they really students? - of Oxford University do not support Freedom of Speech.
    3
  261. What is Imran Khan doing? He used to be a cricketer, didn't he?
    3
  262. Scientific investigators do studies that find the 'wrong' results. The problem is then getting the study published.
    3
  263. 'Everyone. . . ' except Tommy Robinson.
    3
  264. Once again: required reading is 'Trans' by Helen Joyce. This is not an easy read, partly because HJ is so intellectually rigorous and comprehensive, but also because the harm that the transgender ideology potentially inflicts on women and children is horrifying. However, I cannot recommend this book too highly. HJ is also interviewed on U-tube.
    3
  265. 'The Metro', Tuesday 1 April 2025, p 7 headline: '"Reckless" GCHQ intern transferred top secret data to home computer'. This raises the questions: 1 why was an Intern given access to this material? 2 why is he not being charged under the Official Secrets Act? 3 why has he been given bail?
    3
  266. Archaeologist Sir Mortimer Wheeler excavated the ancient cities of Sapporo and Mohenjodaro in the Indus Valley. Fascinating stuff!

  267. Remembering the millions of Empire subjects from the West Indies, the Indian Subcontinent, and some African countries, as well as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, who fought on Britain's side in both World Wars.
    3
  268. There are probably enough NHS doctors of his persuasion to treat him surreptitiously. My guess from the start: he was from Pakistan (not quite correct, as it turned out), the younger child is his, he was living with the woman who was trying to leave him as he had been violent, etc. It is when a woman tries to leave such a man that her life is in greatest danger, that is when it is very common for the man to attempt to murder the woman.
    3
  269. 'The Mail on Sunday' in an April 2020 issue, reported about an article published by a Deputy Director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology in 'The Journal of Biosafety and Biosecurity', issue of August 2019, in which he said, 'I am very worried. There are high-level labs (mentioning no names) which need Biosafety and Biosecurity experts and engineers, and which at the moment have amateurs'.

  270. 'Hate has consequences.' It's the Terfs wot done it.

  271. Oasis is a rather inferior Beatles tribute band.

  272. Great speech, Stan!

  273. I X Kendi: when he says 'substantiated', he probably means 'instantiated'. Whatever, it still makes no sense.

  274. We had to read 'Ivanhoe'! Fortunately I was already a reading-addict, so it did not have any effect.
    3
  275. Maoist British doctor in WHO - Susan Mitchie.
    3
  276. There are no 'Trans' children. The attempt to identify/manufacture them is either an expression of homophobia ('Let's Trans the Gay away'), or a reification of essentialism, or a continuation of the Queer Project's aim to erase all categories - between right and wrong, between good and bad, between true and false, between male and female, between adults and children.
    3
  277. How many Muslim men of Pakistani heritage are convicted criminals, and what have they been convicted of?
    3
  278. It was v depressing to learn that Dominic Raab has, in his new Department, enforced Critical Race Theory on his staff.
    3
  279. The rationale for halal slaughter for animals to eat is that an animal to be eaten must be in perfect health - as far as is known - and physically intact, not injured or ill or diseased. You can see the point of this, especially in the seventh century AD. However, I think it is - like Kosher slaughter - totally inappropriate for the modern age.
    3
  280. Are rhe Germans speaking German?
    3
  281. Age 18 is not mentally adult. The pre-frontal cortex is not fully developed until age 25. If someone of this age, after thorough psychological investigation and treatment, still has the delusion of being in the wrong body, and feels that the only thing that will relieve their anxiety are trans-sexual medical and surgical procedures, then, if they understand the full implications of this, I neither approve nor disapprove of them having these cosmetic operations, provided that I don't pay for it.
    3
  282. Callum, you look forward to the Home Office's response. Well, don't hold your breath. Months ago I asked Priti Patel about repeated death threats broadcast on a range of media to an ex-Muslim (albeit an American living in the US) on the grounds that he is an apostate. I was certain that it is against the law to do this in this country. Apart from an automatic reply registering the arrival of my email, my question has been ignored.
    3
  283. He was DPP when (a) Jimmy Savile was not prosecuted, (b) neither were the 'grooming gangs' of English girls, (c) or the Post Office Scandal executives - any of them in jail even now? It's been 20 years.
    3
  284. Spot on, as usual, Thomas and Josh. Btw, I understand that the Social Democratic Party (not to be confused with the LibDems) has a policy that all inmigration to Britain, legal and illegal, should have a moratorium of 25 years.

  285. CONNOR may be interested to know that Ayaan Hirsi Ali has converted to Christianity. She gives her explanation in a podcast posted through UnHerd on 13 November, 2023.

  286. Lord Hermer - 'Attorney General' - defended in court lots of questionable people, like the IRA etc. His CV is interesting.

  288. Have they defined 'Islamophobia' yet?

  289. Harold Godwinson beating King Harald Hardrada at the Battle of Stamford Bridge: Harald Hardrada was Norwegian, and his fleet was nearly wiped out. The Norwegians never invaded England again.
    3
  290. It's in the Qu'ran and the Hadith. This is how you behave in a Dar el-Harb, which Britain is - it is part of Jihad. In Islam women are fifth-class citizens, and Kufar women are tenth-class citizens. I say 'women' but don't forget the legal age of consent in Iraq is nine years old.

  291. What gets my goat is that the Cross of Saint Andrew has been appropriated by the Scottish National Party as its symbol, when it is actually the symbol of Scotland.

  309. Clowns: when I was a child I used to be taken to the circus as one of the Christmas treats (the other one was the Pantomime which, in Glasgow, had very high production values - four white Shetland ponies pulling Cinderella's coach on stage, for example, with great stars as well). I remember regarding the circus 'clowns' - really Augustes - as being boring and untidy, and being fascinated by the real Clown from the Commedia del Arte. He was in a sparkling suit of sequens, with a white face and intriguing asymmetrical eyebrow and cute conical hat - mysterious and glamorous.

  313. How can anyone aged 13 be anything other than an 'incel'? It's insane - it's actually illegal not to be an 'incel' at that age, anyway. My mother would not have approved of the bad language I heard in the quoted clip. I am appalled that Queer Harmer actually exposed his offspring to it.

  317. I believe that a woman who was attacked at Hyde Park Corner by a gang of young TransActivists who stole and then broke her phone and punched her to the ground, injuring her, while screaming 'Terf'. The many police who were standing metres away did nothing. The attacked woman brought a private prosecution (she had evidence) and was awarded some money, but the judge said that it would have been more 'if the plaintiff had not repeatedly "misgendered" the defendant'. She had several times referred to him as 'he, him' because he presented as male, although claiming to be female. I believe he is now a male kick-boxer in Thailand.

  319. What about the Statute (law) saying that no-one is legally allowed to enter this country without permission? Therefore, it is by definition a criminal offence to land on Dover Beach from a dinghy. Would there be less of a pull factor if anyone who did this was immediately arrested, and deported at the first convenient opportunity - ie when enough people from a particular country had accumulated to constitute a planeload, which would then be flown back to that country?

  324. If you are studying for A-level physics, you have no choice but to copy Newton's *ideas*: F = ma (is this correct, Callum?). References and citations in one's own text: When describing or mentioning a discovery or theory, the name(s) of the person or people who published this must be cited at the time that one mentions it, with the year of publication, eg 'Sausage and Mash (2019)' and, in a list of References at the end of the paper/chapter/book, the surnames and initials of the authors, the year of publication, the name of the journal, with volume and page numbers (and possibly the title of the paper). Or the name and publisher of the book. If 200 words or more are quoted within one's text, this must be made clear, with full Reference, as described above, and permission from the copyright holder (author or publisher) to quote it. As first-year undergraduates, we were firmly told that for every missing Reference in the text of a lab report or essay, or citation that did not correspond exactly with a full Reference at the end, or an incomplete Reference, we would have 10 per cent (ten per cent) deducted from our final mark. For essays we were expected to provide a Bibliography as well of the relevant material we had read. (UCL)

Putney Bridge is the only bridge in England that has a church at each end - All Saints Church at the Fulham end, and the Church of Saint Mary the Virgin at the Putney end (Putney Parish Church). Btw, the latter was the church where the Putney Debates were held between Oliver Cromwell's Party and the Levellers, who wanted universal male franchise, in October/November 1647. It dates from the 12th century. Each church flies Saint George's Cross from its tower.

  338. Simon Rattle, in a worried article in 'The Sunday Times' of 23 April 2023 says, 'The BBC and Arts Council England, the two largest funders of musicians in the country, seem to be operating a pincer movement against our art form'. The art form, of course, is so-called 'classical' music, which has been termed 'racist' and 'exclusionary' by Queer Theorists. Simon Rattle, in his puzzlement, seems to be unaware that the Institutions he names, along with others, have been Queered, and that their aim and mission statement is the erasure of our cultural inheritance. He appears innocent of the fact that all these Institutions are directed and staffed by people who are ideologically committed to this. No doubt the only 'music' that will be allowed, because it is comprehensible by the plebs and therefore not 'exclusionary', will be rap, or whatever lucrative noise replaces it.

  340. 'Two injured in East Kilbride machete attack that NOBODY is talking about' - from the U-tube video of Craig Houston, 19 August 2024. This happened on 31 July. It was reported by the Glasgow 'Evening Times' and the 'Daily Record' papers and Scottish TV, on 11 August. Details are vague. It is not clear how many assailants there were - two or 'a gang'. One victim's hand was almost completely severed - how are the victims now? The assailants appear to have got away, but there has been no appeal by the police giving descriptions of suspects, etc. East Kilbride is a 1950s New Town built to rehouse Glasgow 'overspill'.

  341. Dear Carl et al. The aim and Mission Statement of Jean Monnet and Robert Schumann at the inauguration of the Common Market in the early 1950s was 'Ever Closer Union'.

Apparently, this Saudi psychiatrist is known among the ex-Muslim community as being psychologically disturbed - he is very litigious and has long been regarded as a nuisance and a pain in the arm. He has also apparently had issues about his ostensible qualifications. Atheist Republic say that Islam itself is a brain virus that infects normal brains, and can result in violent jihadism (mass murder, especially of the kufar). But it is also possible for someone who may indeed be an ex-Muslim to be mad and perform mass murder, this act in itself saying nothing about his philosophy.

  351. Failing a percentage of girls to keep the numbers of girls and boys equal. This was done in Britain in the 1950s and 1960s at the 11 plus examination, girls being on average slightly more advanced physically and mentally than boys at that age. This was important because the 11 plus exam determined the child's subsequent educational and employment opportunities - at age 11.

  353. For people who have not seen the following article, I draw your attention to it: from 'The Times', 9 July 2022, '"Sex work is rewarding", pupils told'. This is about schools hiring strange people at taxpayers' expense to tell lies to children - some as young as five. I believe it is required reading. Please also listen to James Lindsay's series of lectures, 'New Discourses', which explains Wokeism.

  354. Non-viable fetuses are not babies, no matter what the Roman Catholic Church has taught you, Connor. About one-third of human conceptions abort spontaneously. However, in El Salvador, women are imprisoned - initially for 30 years, but Elsie (surname unknown) has recently been released after 10 years - for having a miscarriage. 'Stillbirths' are defined as 'aggressive homicide' and sentenced accordingly. Btw, how many doctors and nurses have been murdered by pro-'Life' people? Quite a few. I fail to understand the emotional attachment that some men claim to have to other people's fetuses, embryos or late periods. An attack on abortion is often followed by an attack on contraception. This is sexism in its rawest form.

  355. Germany attack on Christmas Eve: the Doctor had the nickname 'Dr Google' as he had to google everything. It would seem that psychological problems may well be an issue in this case.

  356. At least at last week's demonstration, the person brandishing the ISIS flag was arrested. On Saturday, I saw U-tube footage of a black-clad, masked man screaming something, probably in Arabic, brandishing this flag and not being arrested. At the previous week's demo, a man carrying the Union flag was escorted away by - as far as I could see - SIX police officers. I saw, on U-tube, at the second demo, two young men showing a Saint George's English flag being apprehended by a policeman chuntering about 'the danger of racism' before escorting them to a pub, whose entrance was guarded by a line of police to prevent entry by the mob of hundreds of screaming men outside.

  366. In podcasts of the 'pro-Palestinian' marches of a few weeks ago, I saw a young woman who was wearing the English 'three lions' football flag being led away by the police. I saw a man carrying a large Union flag being led away by police. I saw two young men standing with a Saint George's flag, saying nothing, being lectured by a police officer that they were being 'provocative' and advised to move on. I saw a man dressed all in black waving a large flag depicting the Shahada in white on a black background (the flag of ISIS) and shouting, 'Jihad, jihad, jihad' in the middle of the street. The police appeared to find this acceptable. As a Scottish Unionist, I cannot identify with Saint Andrew's flag (the Saltire) now, as it has been appropriated by the Special Needs Party.

  371. Schizophrenia: all human characteristics, physical or behavioural are the result in their manifestation of a complex interaction between heritable factors and environmental experience. The GMO cannabis grown by trafficked child slave-labourers in this country is twice, five times, sometimes even ten times stronger than the organically grown cannabis from Morocco or Afghanistan of decades ago. Also, some children start smoking it at age 12 or 13, and it is not a party or a pop festival thing. They are smoking six or seven spliffs per day. IF a person has a genetic vulnerability to developing schizophrenia, this can push them over into the illness by their mid- to late teens.

  373. That was the Maya Forstater judgment. She had to fight in the courts for two years to get the law to admit that a person has the right to hold a 'philosophical belief'. The 'philosophical belief' in question was that there are two human biological sexes - female and male and 'transitioning' between them is not scientifically possible. The judgment was obtained on appeal, s the first judge had said that holding such beliefs was not acceptable in a democratic society.

  374. Tyler Zed put up a meme on Facebook: 'I literally wrote a book warning you guys about this - George Orwell'. This was taken down on the grounds that 'it does not conform to our guidelines'. What does this say about their guidelines? Perhaps Nick Clegg could tell us.
    2
  375. Preferential treatment of close family does not normally extend to incest. Josh, as a psychologist, you should know that children brought up together are normally not sexually attracted to each other. A problem can arise when close blood relatives meet for the first time as adults and feel attune with each other but don't realise they are related.

  387. There is a good article on the web from BBC Culture.by Neil Armstrong called 'The man who thought orgasms could save the World'. Olivia Laing is quoted as saying, 'Reich had the misfortune to be taken up posthumously by some fairly loathsome men who helped create the lasting image of "orgasm man".' For American readers, 'fairly' in this context is literally translated as 'extremely'. It would be interesting if Josh and Hugo could do an analysis/critique of Reich's theory about the cause-and-effect relationship between sexual repression and the development of Fascism. I think the time and place of Reich's life are relevant to his beliefs. It's too sweeping of you, Carl, to condemn the whole of Germany and all Germans, along with all Psychoanalysis, on the basis of the horrible events and actions you relate here. Contentious statement: Freud is to modern Psychoanalysis as Lavoisier is to modern Chemistry.

If you are in the desert with no water to spare for washing in the meantime, it makes sense to keep one hand clean (typically the right hand as 85-90 per cent of people are right-handed) to do things like eating food or touching another person. The other hand would be used for doing dirty tasks. This makes sense hygienically.

  394. Rainbow cars fighting crime? Many years ago the police (and CPS) decided that rape was not a crime - and I'm not even thinking of the organised child rape gangs, which are something else. Recently they have stated that burglary will not be considered a crime. Sentences for murder are so lenient that it is now hardly a crime. Now we know why men can dress in full terrorist disguise, wearing masks to make them unrecognisable - which may still be on the statute book as illegal - and physically attack unarmed women going about their lawful business in full view of on-duty police officers who do nothing. Are we all going to have to arm ourselves like Americans to feel protected from violent people? That seems to be working out for them very well.

  398. Rudakubana is not necessarily going to be released after fifty-one and a half years. That is the length of time, starting from the date of sentencing, after which he becomes qualified to APPLY for parole. This is not automatically granted, and the judge in the case said that he thought it probable that it would not be, and that the sentence would, in effect, be for the rest of his life.

She posted a bad tweet - which was angry but did not incite violence if you read it carefully - under stress caused by a re-triggering of her PTSD. She deleted it four hours later and apologised. Subsequently she posted other tweets urging people to try to control their anger and to restrain themselves. These have been ignored and denied.

  420. I sympathize with Katie Glass and admire her honesty. The country life does not suit everyone - chacun(e) à son gout. What I think is missed in the 'life is time-limited' truth, is that men do not go on forever either (as you have pointed out). Some men get to the age of 50 and realise with a shock that there are no little replicas of themselves strutting around, and so they try to get together with women young enough to be their daughter, only to find that the only women they can actually talk to, and who understand what they are saying, are women who are the same age as themselves, and therefore not able to have a family with them. Perhaps they should have been paying attention to these women 15 or 20 years previously. I think mothers should talk to their sons about this at an appropriate age.

  423. The 'Empire Windrush' was bringing back people to Britain, and called in to Jamaica on the way back to Britain. The Jamaican Authorities begged the British Government to take as many unemployed Jamaicans as possible to Britain because there was a bad unemployment problem in Jamaica. Many Jamaicans were very keen to take advantage of this to find employment in Britain (London).

  425. The Suffragists wanted no violence in the campaign for women's Suffrage. The Suffragettes started a campaign of bombing Government property, avoiding killing or injuring people - although this will probably happen if the campaign continues. When the First World War began, both groups called a moratorium on political activity for the duration of the War, to concentrate on contributing to the war effort. Many of them worked in munitions factories, where the death and injury rate was high.

  427. It is misleading to refer to the perpetrators as 'of South Asian origin'. They are of British Pakistani Muslim origin.

  428. 'Infidels': Jews, Christians, polytheists, atheists, agnostics, apostates, 'idolators', 'blasphemers', homosexuals. According to the (unBowdlerised) version of the Qur'an, any one of the Umma (the Worldwide community of 1.6 billion Muslims) has a religious duty to kill any person who is a member of any of the above categories. Of course, most Muslims will not do this, but how many do you need to blow up a rush-hour Tube train? I would suggest one.

  435. 'Wokeness' is a branch of Queer Theory/Critical Race Theory/Critical Social Theory, and the attempt to 'Queer' all activities, eg Education, Medicine, political activity at all levels, communications like publishing or broadcasting. Everything has the narrative imposed on it of Oppressor and Oppressed. Critical Theories criticise everything in an attempt to destroy everything. They have no intention of improving or constructing anything.

  436. This document gives legal carte blanche to 'minor-attracted people' (MAPS) ie Nonces. It is also potentially dangerously sexist and anti-children.

  438. A common pattern, apparently, is that a man has one legal wife, recognised by the British state. He then takes a further wife, or two or three, according to Shariah, so all these marriages are recognised by the families and by 'the Community' as valid. The 'extra' wives present themselves to the Local Authority as homeless single mothers, and are allocated public housing, paid for by housing benefit. They collect other benefits - being unemployed single mothers with no visible means of support. The NHS is available to them and all the children, of course. The children receive free education. The Local Authority mends the roads, provides police and fire services, street lighting, etc with probably next to no Council Tax. These 'unmarried' mothers will never have contributed, or have any prospect of contributing, anything in tax or National Insurance to the British Revenue.

  440. PETER Daszak. I saw a fascinating documentary in April 2020 on U-tube made by Epoch Times and presented by Joshua Phillipp, which I can't find (I am a Luddite or has it been deleted by U-tube). One of the interesting things was that Indian virologists said early in 2020 that they had found four short sequences of bases in the 35,000-base genome of SARS-CoV-2 which they had only ever seen in HIV - NOT that anyone can get HIV from this - that is not possible. However, they said, such tweaking (if it was such) of the bat virus would make it much easier for a zoonotic virus to adapt to perform human to human transmission. This normally takes a long time and requires more than one animal intermediary. This virus transmitted between humans extremely efficiently immediately.

  441. The Norse and the Danes used the word 'viking' as a verb. It meant 'to travel away from home (the farm)', perhaps to rob Lindisfarne and murder all the monks, perhaps to find new land to settle on.

  442. Muslims have allegiance to the Umma, not a nation state. It doesn't matter where they live. There are quite a lot of ex-Muslims. They keep a low profile, for obvious reasons. The aim of believing Muslims is to form a world-wide Caliphate, with ubiquitous Sharia Law. It does not matter where they live.

  444. In Maoist McKrankie's Bill, a man pretending to be a woman, who had convictions for sexual offences under his male name, would be entitled to have the record of all these convictions erased because his new 'female' name would be the only one on any official document. Thus a serial convicted child rapist could apply for any post working with children and no-one would know.

  454. The Queer-Theory Activists are falling into the same trap as Orwell. He was not a psychologist or psycholinguist. Also, psycholinguistics has advanced a lot in the 75 years since he wrote '1984'. He assumed that thought is entirely dependent on language, and that you can destroy concepts by scrubbing words out of dictionaries and books. But there is a lot of thought without language, as psychologists have demonstrated in non-human primates and pre-linguistic babies (demonstrating induction, for example). In humans, the attempt by a tyrant to outlaw/erase words - even if successful - would result in a new mapping of words on concepts. A previous concept might be given several names. You might have more than one word describing different applications of a concept - just as you sometimes cannot map words exactly on to concepts in a one-to-one fashion when translating between languages. The concepts would not be erased. It would seem that the Queer Theorists live entirely in a world of words - but we knew that already. However, it is true that this is yet another blatant indication of their intention, which IS to destroy concepts and to minutely dictate thought.

  467. I have never understood the - new - definition of 'left-wing' as being 'lying to children'. To me, 'left-wing' means 'not privatising the Utilities'. It has nothing to do with lying to children. Similarly, being Green means being concerned about anthropogenic global warming which promises to be irreversible and lethal to advanced life on Earth, and its connection with biodiversity and human overpopulation. 'Green' politics have nothing to do with mentally ill men who want to pretend to be women being allowed to serve their prison sentence - which they may have earned for sexual crimes - in a women's prison, because that is what they say is right for them. It looks like institutional capture to me. Or perhaps it's just an abuse of the English language.

  478. I agree about the misleading 'net zero' immigration. We need a complete moratorium on all immigration - legal and illegal - for at least five years, then for review. The other great mistake in the Reform UK Contract is their failure to mention the GRA (Gender Recognition Act, 2004). This needs to be REPEALED immediately. The other thing is that the Equality Act needs to be re-examined minutely and revised to remove its inconsistencies and ambiguities.

All people who set foot in Britain, even without any documents or without having had any contact with our Immigration Department, are asylum seekers, fleeing war or persecution or starvation, and it is the duty of this country and all British-born taxpayers to accommodate anyone who comes in by any method, and to provide them with the high standard of living that they expect.

  488. Too many people in the NHS do not speak English: (a) about 10 per cent of patients need an interpreter and/or a translator. Expensive? Very! (b) Many of the staff do not have English as a first language. They may speak it, but do they understand the idioms and colloquialisms that native patients are quite likely to use? Very often they do not. (c) 'The Times', Saturday 15 February 2025, p 16: headline - 'NHS Diversity jobs pay "double" junior doctors' salaries'. Tens of millions of pounds would be saved if the NHS DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity) cadres were sacķed overnight.

  499. If I hear Callum define aborting a non-viable foetus as 'murdering a baby' once more I shall have to double my blood-pressure medication. As I have already advised, please see El Salvador's current policy on this - *PLEASE*. The 'mother of three young children bleeding to death on the kitchen floor' scenario is not apocryphal - see writings of old (probably now deceased) gynaecologists. Souls: I think Callum needs to speak to a spiritual advisor about this. Perhaps it is time for him to be received into the Roman Catholic Church - which would be OK with me. As a hard agnostic, I don't feel we have the right to be certain about very much - certainly not about atheism or the existence of a soul (do cats have them, btw, or are you Lotuseaters all strict Cartesian Dualists who believe that non-human animals are merely 'clocks')?

  502. 'Guidance', 'advice' to already brainwashed schoolteachers - which Gillian Keegan eventually gave to them after having her arm twisted by Kemi Badenoch - is no use. These teachers have been quite explicit in saying they will ignore this. A serious Secretary of Education would give a detailed statutory programme of what it is and is not within the law to teach to children of particular ages.😖

  504. This happens in Britain. You can be arrested and charged - I can't remember what with, public nuisance or non-crime hate crime (which will be added to the person's criminal record) - as a lone person standing on the pavement some distance from an abortion clinic and praying silently. Oh, wait - only if you are Christian. If you are Muslim, you can very visibly lay out prayer mats on the pavement and prostrate yourself in prayer while loudly praying and having amplified recorded readings from the Qu'ran loudly playing in Arabic. I saw this two weeks ago on a Sunday just outside the gates of Hyde Park in London, UK. I told a policeman I came across a few minutes later, and he said it was fine.

  507. The 'Trans' Project has captured the tops of the Institutions - the media, the Law and the Courts, the NHS, the Civil Service, the armed forces, the Intelligence Service, the Police, education from entry level up to and including Universities, the Church. 'Trans' activists, far from being a persecuted, cowering minority, are persecuters of anyone who questions them or does not pander to their every delusion and fallacy. They can physically attack unarmed women with impunity while the police stand and watch - see demonstration in Manchester last month. They can have people's livelihood taken from them - not everyone is as big as JK Rowling, who is too big to cancel. They issue death threats and libels, and urge attacks on anyone who questions them - see what Matt Walsh is saying about this. Courts in Britain are treating 'Trans' men (they would call themselves women) leniently even when they are sexual offenders. I believe that there are genuine trans-sexual people. I hypothesise that an anomalous embryological development in the brain might cause sexual dysphoria. I also believe that these people are vanishingly rare in number. The majority appear to be male-to-female trans-sexuals, with female-to-male trans-sexuals being even rarer. I would put money on a bet that not one of them has ever issued death threats or libels or tried to 'cancel' anyone, or physically attacked a woman. They just want to do what they feel is right for them, and I would support them in this. The vast increase in young girls thinking that they are 'Trans' is probably caused by social contagion which adolescent girls seem to be vulnerable to (see eating disorders and 'cutting'). Colluding with a wrong self-diagnosis is a betrayal on the part of medics, therapists, etc. If the depression, anxiety, PTSD, bullying problems, autism or other problems are not addressed, it will certainly not help to prescribe mutilation and poisoning with wrong-sex hormones.

School where sixth-former was bullied: I want this school to be named; I want these teachers to be sacked (except John James); but, *more than anything*, I want the member of the House of Lords who was perpetrating this pernicious rubbish in schools (how many more?) to be named. She - I understand it is a female - is part of our legislature.

I was horrified to listen to Emma Barnett, the presenter of Woman's Hour, no less, a couple of weeks ago treating Maya Forstater like a criminal when 'interviewing' her. There would be no point in writing to my (Labour) MP about the danger to women and children from the Trans Project, as she has already treated me with utter contempt when I asked her - before the Covid vaccines had been announced in 2020 - whether the illegal immigrants arriving on the South coast of England were being tested for Covid.

  531. Christmas is actually a pagan festival - that's one reason O Cromwell abolished it. It is a time for atuffing yourself with food and drink, having big fires and lights, bringing evergreens into the house to remind ourselves that Spring will come again, entertain friends and get in touch with people we haven't seen for a while. This is to get us through the Winter Solstice. It is not necessarily Christian, and was appropriated by the Christians - like other Celtic festivals.

It is still possible to access puberty-blockers and wrong-sex hormones privately through Companies registered off-shore or through the Internet. It is known what these 'treatments' do to children. Why do there need to be any more 'studies', ie using children as guinea-pigs? The London Chelsea and Westminster Hospital is opening a completely new Department (cost?) to provide Phalloplasty for girls (100 per annum) who want to 'trans' into boys, ie having the flesh from the forearm used to form a non-functioning tube of flesh tacked on to their groin, and giving them testosterone - see side-effects. This is, so far as I know, going ahead.

  549. Also recently, the Ultra-supporting- Pro-'Trans' Act, meaning anyone can just say he (always HE) is a woman and that is enough.

  550. FGM, or the mutilation of the genitals of little girls, has not been mentioned. It is still done to thousands of children in Britain every year although it has been a specifically defined criminal offence for over 35 years, with a prison sentence of 14 years. There has been one conviction since the statute outlawing it because of 'cultural sensitivity'. St Thomas's Hospital sees at least 200 children who have had this done to them, per annum, and there are sixteen centres in the country trying to alleviate the suffering of these children.

  556. The problem with a lot of these politicians is that they are wilfully blind to Islam. I understand that most people don't have the time to read the Qu'ran even in a Bowdlerised English translation, far less in the original. So they need to be led through it by an ex-Muslim who is able to explain the relevant passages and injunctions - remembering that Muslims regard this as divine revelation which must be obeyed *to the letter*.

  571. Tommy Robinson was also arrested at the pro-Israel demonstration in November 2023 for being. This was at the implied instigation of Gideon Falker who told the police that Tommy Robinson's presence at the pro-Israel demonstration would in itself be a provocation and he would prefer that TR should not be present. You know the rest. Iranian dissident, Mr Gulbani has also been repeatedly arrested for openly agreeing with Government policy, which the police seem to be certain will incite the crowd to uncontrollable violence.

  572. On someone else's TV (I don't have one) I saw on one of Michael Palin's travel programmes an inspiring young man in Lagos, Nigeria who was teaching primary-school children in a slum area. He told Michael Palin that he was one of 17. His father's second wife had 16 children. I don't know what his father did for a living, but I am guessing he was a rich banker or something like that. I regard this level of reproduction - however rich one may be - as highly irresponsible. It is, of course, encouraged by polygamy.

The EDIJester describes how the Scottish Nonce-sense Party has gone full-on, shameless Maoist - criminalising conversations between parents and children if - perhaps someone who overhears them - judges them to be 'against the Party Line'. This is an order of magnitude worse than the last McKrankie Act two weeks ago - cross-sex self-ID from age 16. This really should end Devolution.

It might actually be no bad thing for children under age 12 to contract Covid 19, providing they do not have particular medical vulnerabilities and they are closely monitored, and providing that the adults they will have contact with have been fully immunized. Since children appear to be less vulnerable to serious Covid disease, experiencing a mild Covid illness could give them a good level of immunity.

Instead of destroying the SNP on their abysmal record on Education and Health, the Labour Party sat and painted their nails and allowed the SNP to gain a huge majority in Holyrood, from which it appears to be difficult to dislodge them. Sargon is correct that their basic agenda is paranoia - Edward I lives! - and wee Kim Jong Krankie leads the Scottish National Socialist Party. Humza Yousaf is trying to introduce a blasphemy law into this country by the back door. Btw, he looks pretty white to me. Only someone who has just arrived from the Ivory Coast is really black.

  598. A little bit contradictory, I think, Connor. How can you be a Lesbian and have loads of abortions? At the very least you would have to have sex with men (before the days if artificial insemination). Also, S de Beauvoir had a few liaisons with women in later life - whether these were purely experimental is not clear. She certainly seemed to be deeply in love with Nelson Algren. J-P Sartre's dishonesty ruined the relationship for both of them. Algren never recovered.

  600. Suffragists wanted to continue with lobbying, marching, publishing, campaigning, etc. Suffragettes said, 'We've done all that. It's got us nowhere. It's time to do something else'. The policy was to target property only, especially Government property, and to guard against killing or injuring people. This was the initial policy of the African National Congress. However, if you target enough property it is almost inevitable that you will kill or injure people. When the First World War started in August 1914, both wings of the Suffrage Movement agreed to have a moratorium on ALL political activity for the duration of the war. Many of them contributed to the war effort, for example working in ammunition factories, which was very dangerous and had a high death rate. The bombs set by the Suffragettes did not kill anyone, but probably would have eventually if they had continued.

  605. (Cont.) A girl who has an atypical gender-role identity should be assumed to be a perfectly normal girl who has no wish to become anything else. Statistically, she is also likely to be heterosexual. The same goes for a girl who likes SCUBA diving or mountaineering as sports. To make a girl feel that doing any of these activities is a sign that she is not really female is sexist.

  606. The vaccines were not produced in ten months. Messenger RNA has been used therapeutically for ten years. (1) A lot of the work for the first three vaccines produced by November 2020 had already been done. Vaccinologists were not starting from scratch. (2) Mountains of money were thrown at the projects. (3) Scientists worked day and night without a break to get this done. No safety corners were cut. I hope those people who believe that refusing to be vaccinated shows how free-spirited and intelligently sceptical they are will not be depriving their children of MMR, whooping-cough vaccine, BCG, and other life-saving drugs.

  609. Single-issue 'extremism': I'll bet this refers to women who want to stop (a) the trespassing into women's spaces (prisons, hospital wards, including psychiatric wards, lavatories and changing rooms, women's refuge centres from violence, women's and girls' sports, for example) by men who are pretending to be women, and (b) the medical poisoning, and mutilation and sterilisation by irreversible experimental surgery of confused children and distressed adolescents. Such women are notorious for sometimes putting up stickers on lamp-posts saying such seditious things as, 'Men are not women'. This is certainly an extreme position. There is no compromise to be had on it.

It is not true that it causes sterility in the woman, although a criminal abortion (where abortion is criminalised) might well result in the sterility or death of the woman. It baffles me why men who have no connection with people they have never met or will ever meet seem to be emotionally attached to the fetuses of these people. It completely baffles me, but then I have not been religiously brainwashed as a child. It is lying to equate abortion to child murder. You should be ashamed of yourselves!

  630.  @LilySaintSin  I think it was a party to get people through the darkest time of the year: have lots to eat and drink, invite people to big meals, catch up with people you haven't seen for a while, have lots of light and big fires, bring in evergreen leaves and branches into the house to remind you that the trees will come back into leaf again, give presents to people. Christians appropriated the winter Solstice celebration to graft on the celebratìon of the birth of Jesus (we do not know exactly when Jesus was born). Other religions have festivals of light to counter the darkness of winter (Hannukah, Divali). Pope Gregory said that pagan places of worship should not be demolished if they were in good repair, but should be converted into Christian places of worship, as 'people would know their location and would be used to coming to them'.

There are two SEXES, female and male. If you think you have been born in the wrong body, you are mentally ill and need psychological treatment, not castration and mutilation - especially if you are a child.

  657. Lactose-intolerance is genetic. Lactose-tolerance is connected with climate - a rainy, temperate climate means that grass is the natural prolific crop. If you have grass you need sheep and cattle to turn it into human food, either dairy or meat. There is therefore selective pressure in such climates for the version of the relevant gene which preserves lactose tolerance beyond early childhood - environment influencing genetics. Cattle herders in Kenya have lactose tolerance. Indians use cows for dairy produce (ghee or clarified butter, lassi or liquid yoghurt, cheese).

  658. Lockdowns were a bad idea - see what Professor Sunetra Gupta and her colleagues (Dr Ray Battacharya and another American doctor from Stamford University) were saying in March, 2020. They were regarded as 'personae non gratae' on all social media, of course. What WOULD probably have helped in February/March 2020 was to cancel the football match between Liverpool and Athletico Madrid, entailing hundreds of fans flying into Liverpool from Spain. Also cancelling the Cheltenham horse-racing weekend at around the same time. Also having NO FLIGHTS INTO BRITAIN from anywhere from mid-January to Easter- especially those directly into Heathrow from Wuhan and other places in China every ten minutes. I can see no excuse for having no or not enough PPE, and for the mountains of taxpayers' money ladled out to 'those and such as those' who promised to supply the PPE. The anti-scientific and questionable assertions put out constantly over the MSM by eminent people have gone unexamined. The sequel to this is the complete denial - practical and also apparently even psychological - of the increasing injuries that are being reported by people who became ill after having Covid vaccine. The previously unknown type of clots in arteries as well as veins now being found by pathologists and embalmers in a minority of people of all ages who have been vaccinated is very worrying. (A minority of a very large number is still a large number.) There is also a complex immunological action if people take too many booster vaccines which can trigger an extremely aggressive cancer in some people whose cancer was being controlled. The less-than-transparency of the pharmaceutical giants also needs to be examined, especially in light of the amount of taxpayer subsidy given to them. It has to be asked why they needed Government contracts guaranteeing them indemnity from prosecution.

  670. I think 'neurodiverse' means having something organically - and not yet understood - deviating from the average, in the brain. It is not neurosis or psychosis or psychopathy. Nowadays, it tends to refer to autistic people or those on the Asperger's scale. Some high-functioning 'neurodiverse' people show a particular skill in one area, even though they may struggle in other areas. For example Professor Temple Grandin - an autistic person - has provided great insights into animal husbandry (cattle). Other Asperger's-scale people may be officially undiagnosed, although those close to them (family, colleagues) may realise that they are different from the average. Some very autistic people are very disabled - non-verbal, extremely difficult to communicate with, for example - but high-functioning Asperger's people may be highly gifted in one area - usually not entailing much communication with people.

There is also post-viral syndrome which very much resembles depression. Does this not have a purely chemical cause? You can't tell someone to snap out of that, or treat it with psychotherapy, and it has nothing to do with their lifestyle or circumstances.

  676. When Kathleen Stock says she is a Moderate, she is talking about her position on Gender Ideology in comparison with many Terfs. She is not talking about her position on economics on the left-right spectrum of politics. I admire her ability and courage in the face of all the intimidation, bullying, libel, threats of violence, and death threats, but I take issue with her apparent attempt to bend over backwards to be 'kind' to Gender Ideologues. She appears to seek a 'middle ground' where there can be 'a dialogue' with 'Trans' Ideologues and activists. I do not believe this, from the evidence so far. Prof Stock does not want to repeal the Gender Recognition Act. I do. I think there is no compromise to be had with gender ideology, and it must not be tolerated at all in any context.

Josh, as someone who has studied psychology to post-graduate level, you should be ashamed of yourself for apparently not even knowing that there is such a thing as post-partum psychosis. You, as a man, cannot imagine a woman not being in love with her new-born baby. It happens that sometimes, extremely undesirable and in tragic circumstances, a woman - a 15-year-old is barely out of childhood - may feel a pregnancy, not as a blessing, but as a cancer growing inside her. None of this applies to me, so let there be no abuse of the plaintiff's attorney. Also, as Lotus Eaters who pride themselves on their philosophical reading, and especially those of you who have read any psychology, you should know that mapping the frontier between 'mad' and 'bad' is a difficult and harrowing task, raising questions about the problem of free will.

  683. Galloway's election: 1 Lots of people in Rochdale were so disillusioned with established Parties that they did not vote. 2 Postal votes, which should be banned, are often collective votes of a family or even a clan, with one man deciding what everyone's votes will be. The Muslims vote in a bloc.

The small NATO force in Afghanistan was there to protect - yes, the people of Afghanistan, but also the civilian populations of North America and Europe. Now Afghanistan is once again a safe haven and breeding ground for terrorists. World, be very afraid. Also, expect China to invade Taiwan within two years.

  689. Indoctrination of children: this is horrific in the USA. Please see OdinsMen's U-tube videos recording this. What the so-called Trans lobby is complaining about is the separation of aversion therapy as applied to gay people which has long been recognised as being as ineffective as it is unethical, and 'aversion therapy' as defined by the Trans lobby which is psychiatrists and psychologists giving confused/anxious/depressed children and adolescents the space and time to explore their feelings and problems in an attempt to cure them. Other people call this therapy. Conversion therapy for homosexuals is, I think, not practised in the UK.

  694. Only the Americans use the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Psychological Disorders). Why is the Grauniad banging on about it? The BBC does this too. The history of psychiatry is always worth studying, and I am sure you do this, Josh. Btw, I was told that, back in the 1960s, a good Canadian study - properly randomised and double-blinded, which is very difficult to do when studying psychopathology - compared results of passing an electric current across the non-dominant hemisphere only, and across both hemispheres, as an ECT treatment for depression. Improvement was comparable in each group, but the very unwanted side-effect of an unpredictable level of memory loss was much less in the non-dominant-hemisphere group. I don't know if this has been replicated. I haven't been able to find it in the PsychLit.

  695. DiMenezes: He had overstayed his Visa. He had no right to be in Britain. He also vaulted over the ticket barrier when asked to stop by the police - because he knew he had overstayed. It looked very suspicious, and the police were at the time chasing a terrorist on the transport system (we had already had 7/7). He shouldn't have been shot.

She was triggered by hearing of the murder of three little girls (still being afflicted by PTSD from the death of her son a few years previously) and the attempted murder of another eight children, and two adults. Her subsequent tweets, when heart-broken and scared demonstrators began to show anger, in response to being treated with contempt, urged people to practise restraint and try to control their anger and avoid violence. The police lied about her, falsely accusing her of being a racist, and of hating all immigrants.

  706. Harry Miller (a former policeman) took the police to court for 'coming to check his thinking'. He won. The judge in the case said that what the police had done was unlawful and that 'Non-Crime Hate Incidents (NCHIs)' had to stop. TWO Conservative Home Secretaries ordered the police to stop doing this. It has not stopped. What NCHIs are: 1 A person complains to the police that you have committed a 'hate incident', and would you like to come to the station for questioning? 2 You are not told what the thing you have written or said is. 3 You are not told who the 'complainant' is. 4 Your name will be held on their records as your having committed a crime. This will be repeated to potential employers and may prevent you getting a job. 5 You may or may not be informed that this has happened. You can be on police records for a 'NCHI' without knowing. 6 Apparently, a police officer earns points by accumulating 'NCHIs' and this can help with his quest for promotion.😡

  708. There have been female soldiers in modern times, but I don't think their appearance was much in their thoughts. I am thinking of members of the Special Operations Executive in World War Ii who were parachuted into occupied France to aid the Resistance - extremely dangerous. Also the Russian Night Witches who made daring bombing raids on German HQs and camps. They were very feared, and normally tortured to death if they were shot down. And recently, there was the Kurdish YPJ which defeated ISIS at Kobani in northern Syria. They are an all-female unit. The Israeli army, I think,

  721. The terms 'gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' belong only in a book of grammar. Biological entities are either male or female. Specifying in detail what is the correct way to be 'masculine' or 'feminine' is essentialist and therefore sexist. I really thought we had moved on from that. The other problem with wrong diagnosis is, not only will the wrong treatment be given, perhaps with bad effects, but the treatment required for a real existing disorder will not be given.

  722. Covid years: It wasn't the Appeal to Authority that locked down the credulous/honest people. It was our trust in those who claimed to be applying the best results then available from honest scientific research. After all, how sceptical/paranoid/anti-scientific/tinfoil-hat-wearing do you have to be to disbelieve the emphatic assurances - broadcast EVERY DAY to the Nation - of the Chief Medical Officer, the Chief Scientific Officer, the Prime Minister? The fact - as it later emerged - that vested interests had colluded to censor scientific findings about (a) the lethality of SARS-CoV-2 (not very dangerous to averagely healthy people - another cold-type virus to add to the four that are already endemic), (b) that cheap, out-of-copyright drugs were already available to help people who got it badly, (c) that economic lockdowns would be unnecessary and horribly counter-productive, and that truly scientific people who tried to tell us this were silenced and even punished, does not reflect on the credulity of the population but on the dishonesty and venality of those in power. More could be said about the experimental vaccines, and I refer everyone to Dr John Campbell for this.

  723. Don't underestimate the happiness of ancient crones! Remember that a lot more men than women commit suicide. Also, recognising that biological entities do not have a gender, but have a sex - female or male - which is determined at conception and cannot be changed, this does not justify the doctrine: 'Men are particle physicists, women scrub the floor'.

  752. According to my Calvinistic upbringing, kneeling before a portrait - any portrait, even of Jesus or the Virgin Mary, far less that of a mere mortal - is idolatry. Extreme Calvinists do not have any pictures, statues or stained glass in their churches, and do not accompany psalms with instrumental music - traditionallt a tuning fork was used to try to start all members of the congregation on the same note, although before long everyone would be following their own key and time signature. When I used to hear this on Scottish radio as a child it used to sound like something being broadcast from east of Istanbul, especially if it was in Gaelic. Btw, I love Catholic polyphony - but still against the idolatry.

  761. PETER Dasczak. I saw a brilliant documentary on U-tube by Epoch Times, presented by Joshua Phillipp in April 2020 (which I can't find because I am a Luddite). It was utterly fascinating. Early in 2020, Indian virologists thought they had found four short sequences of bases in the 35,000-base genome of SARS-CoV-2 which they had only ever seen in HIV - NOT that anyone can get HIV from this - that is not possible. However, such tweaking would make it much easier for the virus (a bat virus) to be transmitted from human to human. Normally it takes a long time, and more than one intermediate host, to wait for an animal virus to change enough to become easily transmissable between humans. This virus managed to do it immediately.

Starmer was travelling around lots of countries, persuading them to rescind the death penalty - which they had democratically decided to have - for their worst criminals, when he should - as Director of Public Prosecutions in Britain - have been prosecuting the perpetrators of the 'grooming-gangs' of England, for whom there was tonnes of evidence, Jimmy Saville, and the Post Office executives persecuting blameless sub-postmistresses and sub-postmasters.

Who on earth thinks that when they leave school there is nothing left to learn and no way to learn it?🙄

  781. 'In Britain we didn't think about (abortion).' We thought and talked about it for decades. I sometimes think anti-abortion supporters don't know just how often human conceptions abort spontaneously - about 30 per cent. 'What about the woman whose life is at risk who is the mother of four children?' What if she has no children? If she dies, the fetus dies. A gamete is not viable on its own. A human fetus is not viable below the age of 25 weeks, and then only with modern technology. A non-viable fetus is not a baby. Traditionally, in England under Common Law, it was not illegal for a woman to procure an abortion for herself before the fetus had 'quickened', ie before the woman had felt the fetus moving, and it would certainly be non-viable. Double monsters were cut up in utero and the parts removed per vaginam, as no doctor would put a scar on a uterus for that. The vast majority of abortions in Britain occur in the first trimester. Full-term abortions for minor defects are almost nonexistent. Outlawing abortion is sexist, and therefore unacceptable, as sexism is unacceptable, with no concessions to culture or religion.

  792. American sitcoms are the best. They are so highly written, because the Americans pay so much for writers. I also like American stand-up comedy. The comedians expect to force you to laugh against your will - you would have to do this with a Glaswegian audience - whereas British comedians, it seems to me, expect you to like them because they're there.

  794. It's not the Trans or gender dysphoric people (who are extremely rare statistically) who cause problems for women by physically attacking them or trying to deprive them of their livelihood. It's the 'Trans-Activists'. They have taken the Trans Project and run with it for the purpose of attacking women. An added very serious aspect to this is that they also present a great danger to children. Many of them - especially in the US - are in schools, and are grooming children either for rape or mutilation.

  796. Pantomime is a mixture of the Commedia dell'arte and circus. The plot is traditionally a fairy tale like 'Cinderella', 'Puss in Boots' or from 'The thousand and one nights', like 'Aladdin' or 'Sindbad the Sailor'. The form has gained traditional conventions, such as 'drag' for both male and female actors, double-entendres and audience participation (a legacy of the old music-hall). There are often two versions - an adult version for evening performances and a version more orientated towards children for matinees. I remember the pantos I saw as a child in Glasgow having very high production values - eg four live white Shetland ponies pulling Cinderella's coach at the end. Panto is performed around Christmas.

If someone over the age of 23 *presents themselves for such treatment and, after thorough and comprehensive psychological investigation, is judged by medical experts to be truly gender dysphoric, then it may be rational to go ahead with 'transition'. It might also be wise to have such a self-presenting patient listen to, and possibly interact with, detransitioners. However, such people are *vanishingly rare*.

  799. Required viewing: U-tube videos from 'terffan man'. These three videos are a comprehensive deep-dive into the foundation of the 'Trans' Cult, and the operation and funding of the 'Trans' Industry, which has been organised with military precision. The videos particularly describe how the Welsh Government, and education system, has been captured, but they are relevant to everyone. There is naught for our comfort, as terffan man demonstrates how gigantic this conspiracy is, and how close the Queer Project is to destroying our Society. Each of the three videos is necessarily quite long, and I would ask you to view them in order. I urge everyone to view these videos.

It horrifies me that these pernicious lies being forcibly taught to children are being conflated with essential activities such as family planning (easy access to contraception, including condoms and vasectomies, and pro-choice abortion). I never thought that being treated like a free prostitute would be remotely liberating for any girl or woman. However, if the alternative is female chastity, the only way to gain respect for a woman, then we are just back to square one. Do I really need to spell it out from the beginning for Lotuseaters?

Thus the invasion of the Falkland Islands. It enabled the Conservatives under Margaret Thatcher to be re-elected in 1983 - which would otherwise probably not have happened.

Because the Covid experience has made electorates a lot more sceptical than they were in January, 2020, and probably a lot less tractable, so there will have to be the opportunity for police forces to be draconian with protesters - 'We can't break International Law!'. Oh, wait - have we heard this before in another context? The totally trusted Wuhan Institute of Virology is at this moment fiddling with a potentially pandemic virus that has 100 (one hundred) per cent lethality in mice.

I am a legal layperson, but I am pretty sure that there are several laws already in place that could be used to protect us from these incessant displays of aggression by people waving foreign flags - even the Shahada if I am not mistaken - who appear to hate us. The corollary is the manifest prohibition of the carrying the flag of this country at these demonstrations. Incomprehensible - or is it?🤔

  833. It's difficult. It's not as if the massacre of primary-school children is a once-in-50-years event. It seems to be routine. School students wear bullet-proof backpacks to school. They have Shooter Drills once a term, along with Fire Drills. This is not normal - meaning healthy. It is pathological. In light of American history, I kind of understand Americans' attitude to guns. However, I can't understand the apparent reluctance to discriminate between sane and mad people. It could be open to abuse of course. Anything can be. It's up to thinking people to find a way round this. There are no easy solutions in life. But continuing with massacre after massacre of primary-school children? Really?

However the fact of whether an ovum is fertilised by an X-bearing or a Y-bearing sperm is merely the first of a series of switch mechanisms which take place over the next several months, and can get out of synch. But this is extremely rare. Speculatively, it could be theoretically possible that a person could feel that they were a female brain in a male body (or vice versa). Again, this is extremely rare. There is no point in my reiterating what Helen Joyce has so cogently written. I recommend that everyone read her book.

Interesting line of succession. Also - and this was from Granniopteryx - a person who is apparently a highly respected and well-established journalist, being given a fraternal kiss by the current leader of Hamas. What value his impartiality?

  855. 'Gender identity' is personality. 'Gender presentation' is fashion. 'Recognising the different social roles that are "natural" to each sex' is sexist.

  865. Lotuseaters, learn a few facts about the reality of criminalising abortion. If you are not a dualist (and I don't see how you can be if you are an atheist) then criminalising abortion is symptomatic of conscious or unconscious hatred of women. Btw, Harry, who failed to take the precautions? Why is there a perennial implication that this is always the responsibility of the woman? Conflating abortion with murder - as Callum does at one pont - leads us to the current situation in El Salvador (which please educate yourselves on). A non-viable fetus is not a baby, Harry, and traditionally under English Common Law has no legal rights before the 'quickening' of the fetus, ie when it can be felt to move. It was a criminal offence to procure an abortion for someone else, but not for oneself before this time. Btw, Harry, what does the word 'menstrual' mean? It means 'monthly', so a woman would probably not realise she was pregnant before she was at least six weeks pregnant. I have never had an abortion, but then I have always had easy access to contraception, and thank God have never been raped, or been a position where my life was threatened by pregnancy, or was carrying a severely disabled fetus. However, I am sure it is not a pleasant experience, and one which would only be taken lightly by an abnormal woman. To hear you two, inexperienced, and frankly ignorant young men talking about this serious subject in such a disrespectful, callous way is shocking.

  867. It's too easy to pretend that you are having a serious discussion of abortion by gigglingly showing us ill-educated, ignorant, neurotic and foul-mouthed Americans for our delectation. I notice that many young men who have an emotional attachment to other people's fetus's give the impression that they would not be in the least bit interested in taking responsibility for practising contraception, assuming that this is entirely a girl's or woman's responsibility, and that this is easy to do. It is not. The contraceptive 'pill' and the IUD cause severe side-effects in some people. Diaphragms do not make one ill, but are inconvenient and messy to use. They require copious amounts of clean water to use - not possible in many countries. Contraceptives have an average failure rate across methods of about 2 per cent. This would account for most of the abortions per annum in the UK. The rational position would be never to have sexual intercourse with anyone unless one would be happy to have his child. I'm not sure how happy many young men would be about this today.

These last two traditional practices put an immense burden on our taxpayer-funded Health Service. Why?

  895. It sounds bad, but I can understand it in the context of children being brainwashed by religious extremists. Some of these 'schools' have been the religious equivalent of the Hitler Youth.

  899. What I can't understand about Carl is that I have heard him state plainly that he is an atheist, and yet he seems to be a dualist - when does the soul enter the foetus, Carl? I can't see these positions as being compatible. If some of the Lotuseaters don't know anything about the history of abortion because it has not concerned them personally, I would urge them to read the testimony of retired (or deceased) gynecologists relating their experiences before the 1967 Abortion Act in Britain. Anyone who uses abortion as a form of contraception is a fool - I am assuming contraception is available, which of course it may not be. The alternative to legal abortion is not no abortion, it is criminal abortion (again, please read memoirs of old gynecologists). I am sure that miscarriage is a terrible experience, but about 30 per cent of human conceptions end in this spontaneously. Nature often rubs out a mistake (I am not talking about a human mistake like forgetting to practise contraception). If you criminalise all abortion you are throwing the victims of rape, incest and some life-threatening conditions to the wolves. There are so many bad cases - perhaps find out about some of them.

  903. Don't forget that it was Trump who initiated negotiations with the Taliban - who does this? - , repeating the mantras 'no more foreign wars', 'bring the boys home', which apparently were popular sound bites, though devoid of meaning in the context of Afghanistan. Twenty years of effort, blood and treasure on the part of NATO have been thrown away and teŕrorism has been released on the World. There was no binary choice between staying in Afghanistan until doomsday and handling it over to terrorists. I have heard a British general refer to the Taliban as 'just country boys'! This was after their cynical press conference. I have heard another British general say that 'we must bring the Taliban in from the cold'. Just saying this counts as treason in my book. Biden should certainly be court martialled if he were capable of standing trial. But he has dementia and should be in sheltered accommodation. The fault lies with the grandees of the Democratic Party who put him forward as a candidate when they must have known the true situation. He should not even have been in Congress at all. There had not been a NATO death in Afghanistan for 18 months. It was a slow process because it was starting from such a low baseline, but Afghanistan would eventually have become safe - after its present corrupt and useless politicians had gone. I have noticed that Americans never mention NATO. It is apparently only American troops who fought in Afghanistan. There is never a mention of the reason for being in Afghanistan: NATO's Article 5 being implemented after 9/11, which states that an attack on one member is an arrack on all.

The problem is the American Constitution does not have a procedure for this, eg a vote of No Confidence in the Government by Congress.

He had pretended to have converted to Christianity.

  936. During the Second World War Britain had a command economy, directed labour, conscription, rationing of almost everything, and identity cards. Other measures were quite severe as well. There was, at least for a time, evacuation of children as young as three from cities to unvetted people who fostered them (some ran back to their mothers, but many of these children never recovered from the experience psychologically). There was also draconian control of household blackout measures, and huge guilt-tripping of anyone who took a day off work due to being ill. They would return to their desk or workstation to be met by a notice headlined 'Why are you helping Hitler?'. The expression of a pessimistic thought was a criminal offence - 'Spreading Gloom and Despondency'. All this was agreed by the Coalition Government of the time as essential emergency measures.

  939. None of the Covid-19 vaccines contains fetal material. The viral-vector vaccines contain a chimpanzee adenovirus, or in the case of the Russian one, a human adenovirus (one of the viruses that cause a common cold). This delivers the mRNA which will code for the viral spike protein which will then be displayed on the surface of the muscle cells and provoke the immune system to produce antibodies to be in the blood in preparation for a future invasion of the virus. I have no sympathy for antivaxxers. Not only are they ignorant and stupid, they are in the same category as people during the Second World War who did not want to adhere to blackout instructions in the face of air raids. I don't think this was tolerated for more than a few seconds by air raid wardens.

  952. Claire Page had to FIGHT her way through the courts in order to find out what her 15-year-old daughter was being taught in school. 'The Curriculum is confidential, Mrs Page. The material is copyright. You can't see it or be told about it.' The material was, of course, bought from one of these Queer-Theory-pedlars - with taxpayers' money. She was first alerted to potential dodginess in her daughter's Curriculum by her daughter talking about the teaching against 'hetero-normativity'.

  957. It's OK to be a girl who is a tomboy or a bit 'butch' and likes physical activity. It's OK to be a 'camp' or effeminate boy who likes to make dolls' clothes. Surely we have moved beyond this stereotyping. 'If a girl reads difficult books it will make her sterile.' This can easily move to, 'If a girl learns to read it will make her sterile'. The words 'feminine', 'masculine' and 'gender' have no place outside a book of grammar. 'Butch' girls and 'camp' boys may grow up to be gay. Or they may not. So what? Are these trans activists really so homophobic? It would appear so. Again, surely we have moved beyond this? What century are these people living in?

It should be remembered that, as well as killing three little girls (stabbibg one over 90 times and nearly beheading her, and another over 80 times), Axel Rudikabana also attacked and attempted to murder another 8 children (and two adults), and was only stopped by the brave actions of the adults and another passer-by. The psychological trauma suffered by the children - and two adults - in the dance-room, which must have been like a slaughter-house, will adversely affect them for a long time. They will almost certainly suffer from PTSD.

  988. 'Trans-genderism' is a religion. To attempt to eradicate it would be an infringement of freedom of choice, or the persecution of the mentally ill. The concept is certainly false, and a danger to women and children - but so are most, if not all, religions. It can be controlled - perhaps eliminated, or almost eliminated - by expunging its application from all Institutions and from the Law. It can be argued against using facts and reason. But men who believe they are women, or women who believe they are men should be regarded as being mentally ill and not criminalised or discriminated against so long as they do not practise their fetish in public or endanger children. Yours, a Terf.

  995. You just don't care? If you have school-age children, please read what they are being taught, from age four upwards. This does not mean getting the titles of the lessons, the aim of the course, any kind of summary. This means finding out what is actually being said to the children in the lessons. If teachers or the school give you any resistance to finding out what children are being taught (copyright, commercial confidentiality), this is a major red flag. It could mean they are being indoctrinated with Queer Theory. Recommended U-tube viewing: terffan man. These are three rather long (50-minute) videos showing how the Welsh Government, including the Education system, has been captured by the Queer Project (of which the 'Trans' Industry is one prong). However, the information applies generally. I think these videos are a must-see. Also recommended: EDIJester.

  996. 'Gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' are terms which belong only in a grammar book. Applied to people, the latter two are essentialiat and therefore sexist. Biological organisms have a sex and are either male or female.

  1002. As I understand it, Queer Theory attempts to erase all binaries (CRTs are offshoots of it). Eventually, when all binaries are erased, no-one will know the difference between good and bad, right and wrong, true and false. That is the object of it.

He would have got to the service of remembrance - it was Remembrance Day and the Cathedral would have been packed with veterans and everyone else - in time for the two-minute silence at 11 am. The taxi driver started to get suspicious - give that man the George Medal - and drove him into the car park instead.

'It's time to ban conversion therapy in all its forms. It's time for tougher hate crime laws.' He also pledged to 'modernise' the Gender Recognition Act. This was at the 'Pink News' Awards ceremony. Also, Emily Thornberry hit out at Suella Braverman for using 'issues such as Trans rights as a political football'.

  1021. I think Connor needs to look up the word 'eugenics' in the Dictionary. The existential threat to the planet - the only one we have, or will ever have - is anthropogenic global warming (I refuse to call it 'climate change' as I dislike euphemisms). There is no point in talking about trying to prevent a runaway greenhouse effect without recognising that humans have bred to plague proportions. We have, worldwide, death control without birth control. It is pointless for the likes of George Monbiot to say that everything will be fine if we all live at subsistence level. No-one wants to live at subsistence level. But if everyone has a chance of a decent standard of living, the fact of overpopulation must belatedly be addressed. The World population should probably be three billion maximum, as it was in the mid-50s. At present it is eight billion and rising, with no end in sight.

  1027. Another gong due to Bukele, which I am surprised you missed, Lotus Eaters: he has gone into the El Salvador Education System with the surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and anti-cancer drugs that are required to root out the cancer of Queer Theory, applied post-modernism and 'Gender Ideology', cell by cell. So El Salvadorean children and teenagers will be protected from being groomed into 'trans-sexualism' with all its nefarious implications, and being groomed into being sexually abused by adults. It is ILLEGAL fot teachers or lecturers to teach this. They will be imprisoned if they do. Why, oh why, oh why can't we JUST DO this, especially in light of our teachers saying proudly that they have no intention of following 'guidelines' or 'advice' from the Government? And intending to continue to DIAGNOSE children psychiatrically when they have zero qualifications to do so?

  1028. A report in 'The Mail on Sunday' in, I think, one of their April 2020 issues, mentioned an article published by a Deputy Director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology in the August 2019 issue of the 'Journal of Biosafety and Biosecurity' where he said, 'I am very worried. There are high-level labs (naming no names) which need Biosafety and Biosecurity experts and engineers, and which at the moment have amateurs'. My best guess, as a totally amateur person, is that these viruses were being subjected to very potentially dangerous procedures - banned in most countries - and gross negligence allowed SARS 2 to escape. The Chinese obsession with 'face' meant that they had to cover this up as much as possible - fatal for China and everyone else. That is the kind explanation. The unkind explanation is, of course, that it is plain biological warfare.
    1
  1029. It was notable that when the Australians said in the spring of 2020 that there had to be a fully independent and comprehensive enquiry as to how the pandemic had happened, within the minute of their saying this, the Chinese said, 'How dare you! For that, we are not buying your beef or coal, and we are putting a 200 per cent tariff on your wine'. It should also be noted that the WHO (and especially Tedros Gebreyesus) is the creature of the Chinese Emperor. The WHO took ages in 2020 to admit that the virus was highly infectious - it was saying for weeks into 2020 that it was difficult to be transmitted between humans. It took weeks to declare a pandemic.
    1
  1030. I think Van Tan's resignation has got more to do with distancing himself from the scientific Establishment's lies about the probable origins of the Virus, and its vilification of people - as conspiracy theorists or paranoid - who suggested it might have a link with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. We now know this was policy. The question is: who is being funded by the CCP? The mortal sin here is that science has been traduced, and ammunition handed to anti-science believers.

  1031. Nuclear power is green: How many tens of thousands of tonnes of concrete does it take to build a nuclear power station? What is its design life - 25 years? 30 years max? How many tens of thousands of tonnes of concrete do you need for the Sarcophagus in which the defunct nuclear power station must be enclosed? How do you keep the high-level nuclear waste weather-proof, rust-proof- criminal- and terrorist-proof? Plutonium is the most toxic element in existence. It hardly exists in nature. Britain produces 2-4 tonnes per annum as nuclear waste. It has a half-life of 24,000 years. It becomes safe after about 150,000 years.

  1035. The 'Queer Project' is funded by International billionaires John Stryker and George Soros. Its aim is to destroy our Society. Judith Butler (Queer Theorist) has reified essentialism. The aim is to erase all borders and categories. Thus there is no difference between correct and wrong, between true and false, between male and female, between adults and children - thus no age of consent, and adults are to be treated as children, and children treated as adults. Once again: required viewing is U-tube channel 'terffan man' - three fairly long videos detailing how the Welsh Government has been captured.

  1061. Carl and Callum, I am worried about advocating a complete absence of doubt in every case about gender identity, and never admitting a contradiction between physical and mental sexual identification. There are people who are transsexual. They are very rare. Think about April Ashley and Jan (formerly James) Morris. The development of physical sex in utero is complicated. The sex chromosome constitution is only the first of several switch mechanisms, and they can get out of synch in the developing fetus. All mammals start off as anatomical hermaphrodites, and usually one of these aspects falls away and becomes inactive, and the baby becomes clearly male or female. The same probably happens in the brain. The difference between the aforementioned people and present-day 'activists' is that the former would not have dreamed for one moment of attacking women in any way, getting them 'cancelled', etc. My point is, I think it would be a bad idea to ignore the complexities of sexual development and identity. You could be refuted on this. Stick to the Critical Race Theory, and the 'activists' attacks on women and female spaces and safety.

So many - all? - of these perpetrators seem to be youths in their late teens or early twenties who are obviously mad. The question is why? And why, in the case of the latest one, did no-one care, why was no help available to a boy who was in hell and could see no way forward?

  1068. I remember some years ago, at a Meeting about population in SOAS in London, I mentioned a small news report I had read in a newspaper that day. It said that Niger was now the poorest country per head of population, in the World. It also had the highest average fertility rate per woman - 7 children per woman. This got me branded as a Fascist and I was not allowed to utter another word for the rest of the meeting - 'No platform for Fascists'. There was a strong implication that it would be better for the general health of the building if I left. This I did not do.

  1069. Terfs are not 'radical feminists' - whatever they are. Terf is supposed to be an insulting term by 'Trans' Ideologues for women who want to protect hard-won women's rights, the physical and psychological safety of children, fairness and non-discrimination to homosexuals of both sexes, and a purging of Queer-Theory Activists from all our Institutions.

  1070. The Police are sucking the Law out of their thumb and bullying members of the public by wrongly accusing them of breaking the Law - which they have just made up. This is definitely the definition of a Police State.

  1071. Like the World as a whole, Britain has far too many people. For food security, we need 34 million people in Britain - not 75 million. Also, accommodation - building a million uninsurable homes in river flood-plains in a time of global warming is not a solution. But work? Before we mention AI, let me just mention my ex-colleague who re-trained, kitted herself out with printing, scanning and computer equipment, and did the work of what used to be done by a small firm of six people. This requires great versatility, ability to jump into vertical learning curves, and a great capacity for work, of course.

  1072. I thought the British Psychological Society regarded the polygraph as having too low a validity to be used.
    1
  1073. 'Gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' do not exist outside a book of grammar. Biological entities do not have a gender. They have a sex - female or male. There is no disembodied gendered soul. 'Gender' expression is personality - of which there is an infinite number. 'Gender' presentation is fashion. Sex is determined at conception and cannot be changed. It is sexist and essentialist to assert that women can't do maths, or that men have no empathy, for example. It is disgraceful to weaponise people with developmental sexual disorders in an attempt to prove that there are more than two sexes, or that sex can be changed.

  1077. That 'teacher' needs to be at least in intensive Psychoanalysis, if not sectioned (or committed, as the Americans would say). She must be kept away from children.

  1081. Plug for book: 'Time to Think' by Hannah Barnes (Swift), newly published, 24 February 2023. This tells the full story of the Tavistock's ideological capture by Queer-Theory Activists (Maoists).

  1083. Age 18 is not mentally adult. The prefrontal cerebral cortex is not mature until age 25. If a person has been psychologically treated for the delusion of 'being in the wrong body', and still feels that the only thing that will relieve their anxiety is the plastic cosmetic surgery of trans-sexual medical and surgical procedures, and they have understood all the implications of it, then I neither approve nor disapprove of them having it, so long as I don't pay for it.

  1084. A big problem is the destruction of social mobility which happened under George W Bush. You can have quite a lot of disparity of wealth if you have social mobility.

  1086. Police officers in Britain who are armed with automatic weapons are not allowed to take their hands off them, in case they are grabbed by miscreants and used. They are instructed to use their feet. In any other country these attackers would have been shot dead.

  1089. A few months ago Keir Starmer defamed Tommy Robinson under Parliamentary privilege by calling him 'a racist thug'. I dare him to say this outside the House of Commons.😖
    1
  1090. Passivity by default: perhaps in former days this was a protective mechanism - 'freezing', 'lying low'. People who have been physically attacked often report that they 'froze' as if paralysed and could not even scream. It may in some cases be protective in a purely physical situation. 'Environmentalists': we are not all the same. Anthropogenic global warming is a fact - an inconvenient fact. Denying this and not doing anything about it is the prime manifestation of Learned Helpless. Instead of 'The taxpayer will bail me out', the deeply held belief/hope is 'Nature will bounce back', 'There will be no irreversible global changes rendering the Earth uninhabitable by humans'. 'After all, it's always bounced back before, hasn't it?' This is to fall into the Inductive Fallacy. Keep up the good work.

  1097. The terms 'gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' have no place outside a book of grammar. Biological entities do not have a gender. They have a sex, female or male. Some Victorians believed that 'reading difficult books' would make a girl sterile, for example. The strict defining of what is appropriate for females or males is stereotyping and sexist.
    1
  1098. Bret Weinstein wonders if the Nuremberg Code might apply to these experimental medical and surgical procedures practised on children and adolescents, on the grounds that the patients were not in a position to give *informed consent*. In the case of 'sex change' that would be on the grounds of age or psychological illness. In Nuremberg, where seven doctors were hanged in 1947, it was on the grounds of the patients being prisoners in concentration camps.
    1
  1099. Idols in Christianity: acceptable only in the Roman Catholic Church and Orthodox Churches. Protestants tend to be iconoclastic. Extreme Calvinists (in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, for example) have no statues, paintings or stained glass in their churches. Some do not even have instrumental music - only unaccompanied singing of psalms (hymns would be much too modern), giving the congregation a starting guidance by means of a tuning fork. Within about two bars of music, everyone is singing in a different key signature and time signature. I used to hear these services as a child on the BBC Scottish Home Service and found them intriguingly similar to broadcasts from stations east of Istanbul. The effect was enhanced if they were singing in Gaelic. I'm not sure if this is still common. However, as a lapsed Calvinist (mainstream, not extreme) I can tell you that religious images are highly suspect.

  1100. Independent (private) schools are just as infected with Queer-Theory indoctrination of children as are the schools in the public sector.

  1101. I suggest Dr John Campbell (3.2 million subscribers) who has kept us up to date with aĺl things Covid over the years, as the discoveries - scientific and political - get uncovered. His interviews with Angus Dalgleish, Robert Clancy, Andrew Bridgen and many others are very enlightening.

  1106. No, the concept of 'hate crime' does not make sense. It is a crime or it is not a crime. I don't care about the thoughts going through the mind of someone who slashes me. I only care about the fact that they have done it.

  1108. General deGaulle vetoed the entry of Britain into the then Common Market, in the early 1960s. Politicians who had been veterans of the Second World War were often very keen on some form of European cooperation, so that 'never again', and I understand this. I'm thinking of Private Edward Heath and Major Denis Healey, for example.

  1110. Scotland is just about as bad as Ireland for this tyranny. The new broadcasting law that has just gone through (September, 2023) is also very dangerous.

  1111. Just because the Nazis talked rubbish about race doesn't mean they were not racist. They were obviously obsessed with race, measuring people's heads, noses, etc and obsessing about whether a person was a quarter or an eighth Jewish, like the KKK talking about Blackness.
    1
  1112. I think Harry is wrong in saying that the failed State that is Afghanistan is of no concern to us. NATO invaded and occupied Afghanistan (adhering to Clause 5 of the Treaty after 2001) because it was a breeding ground for terrorists who attacked Western countries. The NATO forces in Afghanistan were protecting the civilian populations of Europe and North America. No NATO military personnel had been killed in Afghanistan in the 18 months before withdrawal. The problem was that for every Talib killed in Afghanistan by NATO Pakistan threw three more over the border from their Taliban factories.

  1116. 1 You don't want to be TOO genetically homogeneous, like some of the population of Bradford. 2 For a non-Muslim to be called or referred to as 'a Kufar' is equivalent to a black person being called by the 'N' word. It is meant as an insult, and could possibly be a 'hate crime'. 3 Lotus Eaters, the new guy on the right is difficult to hear sometimes.

  1118. There are more deer in England - without even considering Scotland and Wales - at present than there have ever been. They destroy trees and have become a pest because they have no predators. On the other hand, a lot of Americans disappear when they go hiking or camping in National Parks.

  1121. To learn about Islam/The Qu'ran, I recommend U-tuber The Apostate Prophet. He has read The Qu'ran forwards and backwards many times in the original, and is interesting when, for example, pointing out the differences between the originals and the Bowdlerised translations.

  1122. I thought that in the early Middle Ages peasants owed military service to their feudal lord if it became necessary.

  1123. Feminists should not be wearing nail polish as, I understand, this was invented in the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul in the 16th century to be worn by the concubines in the harem to indicate that they were menstruating, so that when the Sultan came to choose one to sleep with that night, he would not be embarrassed. I think this is correct, but it may not be.

  1124. Professor Sunetra Gupta of Oxford University told everyone in March, 2020 that lockdown was a bad idea. She explained in detail what should be done to protect the most vulnerable and keep as much of the economy open as possible. She was ignored. I personally think that Boris's behaviour illustrates his contempt for 'the little people', ie me. During the lockdowns people could not be with their dying grandparent, dads could not attend the birth of their baby which they wanted to do, I heard a man on radio telling how he could not be at the funeral of his brother, because of quotas. People remember this, even if they are not talking about it loudly all the time. The police - as usual - decided themselves who to arrest and who to leave alone, in the case of breaking the law.

  1125. I don't think it is fair to smear someone for the actions of their parents.

  1126. The Thalidomide disaster was in the early 1960s. The drug damaged, to a greater or lesser extent, the development of a fetus's limbs. Some babies were born with no limbs. The US escaped it because the Doctor in the FDA in charge of approving use of drugs in the US refused to have it admitted to the country. To compare vaccines to Thalidomide is a crime worthy of the severest punishment.

  1130. Jesus: 'You are neither Jew nor Greek, you are neither rich nor poor, you are neither male nor female*, but you are all one in Christ.' Thus, Christianity is extremely revolutionary in its levelling of differences between people - remember that at the height of the Roman Empire most people were plebs, if not slaves, and the Romans recognized the Greeks as a nationality, but *everyone else as *a barbarian or foreigner*. The penalty of crucifixion was reserved for the most despised criminals, and was designed to humiliate as well as inflict an excruciatingly prolonged death by torture. All organized religions are sexist - Christianity probably the least, Islam certainly the most.

  1131. It is now less embarrassing to imply that it might be aliens than that the Chinese are successfully spying on the USA (and probably everywhere else).

  1132. You don't have to be a parent to care about the welfare of children. You don't have to be related to people in any way to care about their welfare. I hope Matt has not been libelled or threatened.

  1133. 'Decolonising' Ireland: this shows that all these 'processes' are just pure racism. It is just going after people because they are pale-skinned and ginger. It is, in fact, gingerist.

  1135. GOOD NEWS THIS WEEK FOR ALL FEMINISTS Elsie (surname unknown) was released from prison after serving 10 years for having a miscarriage, in El Salvador. She had been sentenced to 30 years for aggravated homicide, which is the punishment for having a miscarriage or a stillbirth. These are conflated with abortion which is totally illegal in all circumstances, even when the continuance of the pregnancy will inevitably result in the death of the woman. This has nothing to do with diet.

  1136. Can a friend of Nigel Farage please introduce him to the U-tube videos of Harris Sultan (originally from Pakistan, now Australian), and Armin Navabi of 'Atheist Republic' (originally from Iran, now Canadian). They are ex-Muslims - one Sunni and one Shia - and could increase his knowledge of Islam, which is dangerously meagre.🤔

  1137. Biden has obviously had dementia for some time. He should be in an old people's home. It is worrying that he has his finger on the nuclear button.
    1
  1138. The amount of brainwashing that happens in British mosques, 'Islamic Centres' and Islamic schools in various languages is relentless. Britain is a Dar el-Harb, ie it must be made into a Dar el-Islam and thus brought into the Worldwide Caliphate under Universal Shariah - as is AN INJUNCTION in the Qu'ran. A Muslim who is not intent on doing this at all times and with every action will burn eternally in Hell. Does this mean that we should distrust all individuals who are Muslims? No, not at all. Many people born into the religion - no-one has a choice in this - do not realise what it really says, never having read the Qur'an or Hadith thoroughly, or taken violence-encouraging sermons seriously. Many, having fully realised this immediately become ex-Muslims (although they usually have to keep quiet about this as it is punishable by death by the Worldwide Umma). So, a distinction needs to be made between Muslim individuals and Islamic Ideology.
    1
  1139. A 'true hermaphrodiite' is a person who has one ovary and one testis. It is vanishingly rare. Disorders of sexual development are usually caused by chromosomal aberrations in the formation of the germ cells - possibly resulting in a chromosomal phenotype of X0, XXY, or XXX - which cause physical and possibly mental disorders and sterility. Hormonal aberrations in development (in utero) can result in pseudo-hermaphroditism where a baby can have its sex wrongly diagnosed at birth, if there has been anomalous development of the genitals due to hormonal influences. This is less common nowadays, as there are simple, non-invasive ways of determining sex, in addition to looking at the genitals.

  1140. The headline including '. . . a migrant's killing' is grammatically wrong, as it is telling us that it was the migrant who was killed.

  1145. What post-modernism does is to disconnect language from reality, and make it float free. Definitions become fluid - Webster's Amercan Dictionary has been tampered with, for example.

  1152. The experience of the Covid Pandemic acts in two directions: since every 'conspiracy theory' relating to the Pandemic has turned out to be true, we, the plebs have reached maximum scepticism about everything. This loss of trust is not a good thing. Worse, even, than the complete loss of trust in politicians, is the loss of trust in scientists who sold their souls for a title, status or money, the loss of credibility of such publications as 'Nature', 'The Lancet' and others, and therefore the destruction of belief in science. Please see U-tube videos of conversations between Dr John Campbell and Professor Angus Dalgleish.

  1153. The American woman seems to be bilingual in English and Spanish. That has to be useful.

  1154. George Orwell was right about political oppression and dictatorship, but wrong about language. He was not a psychologist or psycholinguist, and subscribed to the now discredited 'museum myth' of the relationship between words and their meanings. In other words, you cannot erase concepts from people's minds by scrubbing words out of books and dictionaries. New words will be invented to describe existing (and new) concepts. They may not map on exactly to the old meanings - you may need more than one word to describe different aspects of the old word, as you sometimes do when translating from one language to another. But there is a lot of thought without language - in non-human primates and, to a lesser extent, other mammals, and in pre-linguistic human babies. So, not so easy to eliminate concepts.

  1158. Russell Brand is one of the five most unattractive men in this cluster of galaxies - for me. You see, it's a matter of taste - partly influenced by upbringing. If your mother is an intellectual snob, then the man will probably have to have a PhD. If she worships money, then he will have to be rich, and be seen to be rich. For some women, the epitome of attractiveness is physical strength and athletic ability, for some it is a military uniform and proof of military prowess in being decorated, or being a creative genius musician - the rock star overlaps many circles in the Venn diagram here. Gregory Peck in his prime - oh, every time, although Ingrid Bergman could act him off the screen. None of this is a conscious attempt to please one's mother. It has been absorbed unconsciously.
    1
  1159. We don't know the cause of the impairments the woman was talking about. The brain damage of her 57-year-old brother may have been caused by a bad labour (not genetic). Autism may be correlated with having an ageing father (fathering a child in late middle age may increase the probability of its being autistic)..

  1164. Local Education Authorities (LEAs) used to be in charge of the state-maintained schools in their area (the clue is in the name). It was a Conservative Government that centralized education in the 1980s (?). The LEAs were, to some extent, under democratic control.

  1167. Men taking more responsibility for contraception: please do more of it. Pills and coils can cause severe side-effects. Diaphragms are inconvenient and messy. The 'rhythm' method is a non-starter. Vasectomy is a much simpler operation than salpingectomy. It does not even need a general anaesthetic.

  1175. The other thing to remember about Starmer's reaction to the demonstrations/riots is his immediate announcement that he was going to give money to mosques to protect them from the marauding hordes of natives. I can't remember exactly how much taxpayers' cash he was going to donate tto the mosques - whether it was £17 million or £27 million.

  1176. You don't have to convert to Islam if you marry a Muslim man, if you are a Jewish or Christian WOMAN. So long as you are not a polytheist or an atheist, you can theoretically keep your religion, as a Jewish or Christian woman, if you promise to bring up the children as Muslim. However, if you are a MAN, to marry a Muslim woman, you would have to convert to Islam, or the marriage would not be valid.

He was not only targeting Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, he was doing it on Remembrance Day at the time - 11.00 am - that the Cathedral would be packed with people commemorating veterans, and indeed observing the minute's silence of respect for those who gave their lives. Pretending to convert to Christianity is an official tactic of Jihadis in their attempt to murder as many Infidels as possible.

  1186. The Supreme Court is totally unconstitutional. However, this is still a good result. Remember that the Supreme Court is a Court of Appeal. A lower Court had ruled that women having their rights and safety taken from them was a very good thing. Yes, huge efforts, time and money have gone into ruling that water is wet. Yippee! BUT the alternative would be worse. However, we still need to repeal the GRA (Gender Recognition Act, 2004) and further examine the Equality Act (2010) for modification or possible repeal. Btw, we Terfs do not want to deprive men and boys of their own private spaces. Why would we?

However, it appears that be mutating at the rate of an RNA virus - in the countries outside Africa, where it is endemic in Congo and Nigeria. The virus in the African countries seems to be behaving as before, ie like a DNA virus. Just saying . . .

Yes, Beau, but they are all part of the Umma, and a Muslim's allegiance is to the Umma, not to a nation state, no matter where they are living. The aim and mission statement of Islam is to form the worldwide Caliphate under Shariah law. ISIS is the model. It is not an aberration of Islam. It is the true Islam, according to them. Of course, there are many ex-Muslims who dissociate from this philosophy/politics, but they keep a low profile, for obvious reasons.

What is needed is for the Qu'ran to be available in UNBOWDLERISED translations in the languages of the country, and *very importantly*, have ex-Muslims (of whom there are many, but they keep a low profile, for obvious reasons), who have read the Qur'an in the original classical Arabic many times, to lead people through it, and through the Hadith. This would be very educational for many people.

  1237. Withdrawing children from music lessons (Mohammad was tone-deaf, therefore music is haram). Also, often girls are not allowed to learn to swim at school along with the rest of the class, the excuse being that it would entail removing their hijab, thus showing their hair. Sex-education can also be a problem. In Iran, girls were - I don't know if this still pertains - not allowed to study English Literature, Biology or Computer Science. In Afghanistan, of course, girls are deprived if education, a woman's voice is not supposed to be literally heard outside the home, and recently women were banned from talking to each other - how this wotks within families i'm not sure.

  1238. The Hugenots were French Protestants. I think there were 50,000 of them. They were literally fleeing for their lives, and were glad to be given asylum in England. They did not receive money from the State, but were given a hand up entirely by voluntary donations, most of them, I think, quite small. The Hugenots did not take jobs from the native population, but provided jobs by bringing a textile industry with them.

It can be an extension of reality in order to illustrate current reality. Of course you will get Muslim girls defending hijabs and the like. They are afraid to say otherwise. There is also identification with the aggressor (ask Josh if you don't know what this is). Burkas (not hijabs) are individual prisons for women. They are very difficult to wear, dangerous because you can't see out of them to cross the road safely, for example.

  1264. I think the originator of Queer Theory is actually Judith Butler. Gayle Rubin develops it to erase boundaries sexually (apparently condoning paedophilia and incest).

  1266. Human rights are what you have BY VIRTUE OF BEING HUMAN - even if you are Hitler or Stalin. Even they should not be tortured, for example. This is not the same as a CIVIL RIGHT - the right to vote, the right to claim unemployment benefit, for example. One may have to fulfil certain conditions in order to qualify for a Civil Right - being over the age of 18, perhaps, or being financially eligible for unemployment benefit (I don't think a millionaire would qualify for unemployment benefit). Pink-haired adolescents who have difficulty with definitions and categories (post-modernism tries to abolish categories) conflate Human and Civil Rights. Therefore it becomes my Human Right to have people fired from their job and put in prison for refusing to confirm me in my delusions.

  1267. What is being pumped into Americans' minds is not 'misinformation', which contains a mistake or mistakes. What the Americans are being fed is DISINFORMATION. This is propaganda consisting of lies, and is fed to the enemy to try to make them do the wrong thing. This propaganda against vaccination probably emanates from China, Russia or Iran. Fifty per cent of people being vaccinated does not confer herd immunity with this virus. It is the duty of everyone (for whom there are no medical contra-indications) to get vaccinated in a Pandemic, to contribute to herd immunity. It is not true that the Delta Variant causes 'a mere snuffle' generally. It kills a lot of people. Also, the more the virus is allowed to spread, the more chance it is given to mutate - perhaps into even more lethal and infectious forms, or perhaps to achieve vaccine escape.

  1268. Calvinists and Sunnis: they have not only the pernicious doctrine of predestination in common. Also, the distrust of graven images. Remembering that the Established Church of Scotland is the moderate version - the church at Crathie is attended by the Royal Family when they are staying at Balmoral. The Free Church of Scotland is stricter than the established Church of Scotland, which Frees regarded as having become too tolerant and liberal. A faction broke from the Free Church, which they regarded as having become too tolerant and liberal. There were not very many of them, so they were called Wee Frees (by others). They called themselves 'The Free Church of Scotland'. To distinguish themselves from this faction, the original Free Church of Scotland called themselves 'The United Free Church'. The strictest Frees do not have music in services - a tuning fork starts the congregation on the correct note to sing the psalms (hymns being too modern). Within about two bars everyone is in a different key signature and time signature, as I remember from listening to them on the Scottish Home Service when I was a child. It sounded as if it was coming from somewhere east of Istanbul - quite an intriguing sound, actually. There are no statues, paintings or stained-glass windows in the places of worship. There are no vestments - every garment worn by the Minister is black.

  1271. The huge crime committed by those medics and scientists who unthinkingly - or thinkingly, or fearfully - signed the letter secretly promoted in 'The Lancet' by Peter Danczac saying that there was no possibility of the Virus having escaped from a lab, is that they have discredited science and given ammunition to antiscience entities.

  1278. Nigel Farage's outburst against Ben Habib was totally inappropriate and uncalled for. It made me lose respect for Farage. I can't for the life of me see why what Ben Habib is saying - about the unfinished Brexit, about the unsustainable rate of immigration (legal and illegal), about the necessity of large-scale deportation of illegal immigrants, about the necessity for the democratisation of Reform-UK - is not totally self-evident. Farage and Tice, at the moment, do not present as serious people. They are cos-playing at being politicians. Who, for example, does Richard Tice imagine Reform-UK supporters and voters are? Has he ever spoken to one of 'that lot'?

  1280. What we should be totally worried about is the lack of vaccination in South America, Africa and South Asia. If the virus is left to keep mutating in most of the World's population it will come back to bite us and we will be back at square one, since viruses know no borders. This is much more important than our vaccinating children who do not have special vulnerabilities. The Delta variant requires a herd immunity of much more than 75 per cent. Possible future variants may achieve escape from existing vaccines.

  1284. Carl, you are wrong in saying that people who are 'young, fit, active and under 50' will be safe from this variant. It appears to be those aged between 25 and 60 who are now most at risk. What is often not mentioned is the phenomenon of Long Covid. This is a debilitating illness, very much resembling ME/chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Its occurrence and severity seems to have no correlation with the severity of the initial Covid 19. That is, a mild illness, not requiring any treatment, far less hospitalization, consisting of perhaps a week of fever and a week of wracking cough, can result in months (up to 17 months and counting, reported) of extreme fatigue and muscular weakness, among other symptoms. I am thinking of a hospital consultant in his 40s who, two years ago, regularly ran half-marathons. Now he has to spend two days out of three in bed. Even if most people are not quite as badly affected as this man, the total effect of Long Covid on lives and the economy will be horrible. We must try to prevent people getting it. I think Emmanuel Macron has it right in introducing vaccine passports. If you have proof of full vaccination on your phone, you can do nearly everything. If you do not have such proof, you can do almost nothing. This has evaporated 'vaccine hesitancy' at a rate of knots.

Melting of the permafrost is releasing methane, many times more harmful in greenhouse gas terms than carbon dioxide. The catastrophic climate events of recent times are signs, but the major worry is that we are destroying the Earth's thermostat which will put us into a runaway greenhouse effect, and render our planet uninhabitable by us. This is the only habitat we have *or will ever have*. Btw, James Lovelock's Gaia Hypothesis referred to the planet's self-regulating - without humans, primates, mammals or vertebrates if necessary. Nature cares not one iota for humans as a species.

Napier University is one of the newer universities - I think it was formerly a College of Pharmacy (Herriot Watts). However, Edinburgh University is not blameless, as last year it acquiesced to the demands of some undergraduates to 'de-name' their Hall of Residence which was named after David Hume, and apparently he had lent some money to someone in the 18th century who had then invested it in the West Indies.

Perhaps the LotusEaters would like to adopt the El Salvador position and conflate spontaneous miscarriage and stillbirth with procured abortion, all legally defined as 'aggravated homicide' and subject to a sentence of 30 years in prison, even if continuation of the pregnancy would result in the inevitable death of the woman. I'm not even mentioning rape and incest, or rape-incest. Abortion of one's own non-viable pregnancy has traditionally not been an offence under English Common Law, as a non-viable foetus was not a subject of the King, although aiding or procuring an abortion for another person was a criminal offence.

  1319. These measurable signals - high-frequency pulses, etc - emitted by plants do not mean they have QUALIA. We have known about tropisms for AGES - plants do not choose to move towards the light. It is a chemical reaction.

  1320. I think there is a lot of sex stereotyping, ie sexism, in some 'transgenderism'. There seems to an assumption that a girl who wants to be, say, a civil engineer or a particle physicist must not be a 'real' girl, because she is interested in 'boy' things. This is sexist. A girl who has an atypical gendsr-role

  1321. I'm very intrigued by some of The Lotus Eaters' unquestioned assumption that all women live in some kind of social, political, economic and psychological vacuum, in which there is but one factor deciding their fate: their will. No-one else (eg husbands or boyfriends) has free will, there are no political decisions causing housing shortages or unemployment, there are no spontaneous miscarriages, there is no infertility, there are no untimely deaths. What the women wish for and decide will happen will be what happens. What a nice thought!

  1323. Many moons ago, I was discriminated against, by being expelled from a beautiful Youth Hostel with a swinning pool, in Biarritz, along with English (I am Scottish), Danes, Americans and a New Zealander, on the grounds that we were Anglo-Saxons - that was the term used. 'No Anglo-Saxons! Get out!' - in French, of course, from the Warden. He made sure that we had all done our chores beforehand. It was particularly tough on the Jewish boy among us to be discriminated against on the grounds of being Anglo-Saxon.

  1324. Re coercing children into a harmful cult: please see the article in 'The Times' of 09 July, 2022, entitled '"Sex work is rewarding", pupils told'. This refers to schools in Britain today.

  1325. Learn some science, Sargon. Ask the Californians, South Africans and Australians about their forest fires, and the Indians about their high temperatures. Nobody wants to live at subsistence level, and nobody ought to, but nearly a billion people have no access to clean drinking water today. Our activities, made to support our survival, are contributing to rendering uninhabitable the only habitat we have or will ever have. We need prosperity without growth. This entails a reduction in our presently unsustainable human population - without any of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. You think there is a refugee crisis now? It is nothing compared to what you will see presently if we just go on like this. Of course, getting a handle on population levels necessitates empowering women and girls - very offensive in most of the World.

  1326. 'This lake has just become illegal to fish in.' - 'Since when?' 'Since ten minutes ago - you're nicked.' It sounds like these villages/towns which make a living out of fining drivers who have broken hidden car speed limits

  1327. It always puzzles me when Americans who look as white as the driven snow to me keep banging on about how 'black' they are.

  1328. Ex-Muslims say that there are several versions of the Qu'ran, and there is no consensus on which is the most correct. In any case, a translation from the original (classical) Arabic cannot be wholly authentic. Speaking as one with a Calvinist upbringing, to imbue a random collection of paper with holy reverence, to the extent of threatening the life of someone who accidentally damages it, amounts to idolatry. I would have thought Muslims would have thought the same way (see destruction of statues, etc).

  1329. To young men who think it would probably be good eventually to become the married father of a family: the inevitable female menopause affects you too. Don't wait until you are 50 to do this. You may find that 25-year-olds regard you as an old codger, reminding them of their father, and the only people who understand what you are saying are 50-year-olds. Perhaps start paying attention to women of 30-35?

  1330. It's all so sexist and stereotyping. 'You're a girl but you may feel like a boy sometimes.' This is implying that, liking 'reading difficult books' - as the Victorians used to say - makes girls sterile, as all the blood goes to the brain and thus the reproductive organs are starved. 'Girls can't do maths', 'Girls who like sports are really boys', 'Girls must do cookery lessons in school instead of science' - listen to Jocelyn Bell Burnell on this. I thought we had moved beyond this.
