  1. And Kristeva, Cixous, Irigaray - not only French (by my definition) but also women!

  2. 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?

  3. Charlie Peters of GB News says there are at least 50 towns in England that have had suffered from these crimes.

  4. Benefits.

  5. Do the parents of these Welsh girls know how their daughters are being used?

  6. Hizb ut-Tahrir was banned in nearly every other country, including many Muslim countries, before it was banned in Britain in 2024.

  7. 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.

  8. The Chinese are mining Afghanistan's lithium like mad at this moment. Also, expect an invasion of Taiwan in the next two years.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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).

  12. Stay safe, Calvin.

  13. We need to find out the extrnt of the complicity of the Police, Social Services, Councils, MPs and anyone else.

  14. Greece's economy was not helped by tax evasion becoming an accepted national sport.
    25
  15. 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
  16. '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.

  17. 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!'

  18. 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
  19. 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
  20. 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.

  21. 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.

  22. 'They normalise pathology so as to pathologise normalcy.' - Exulansic.

  23. 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.

  24. 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.

  25. 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.

  26. It's to keep U-tube happy.

  27. God help Welsh children against the Queer in the Education System and elsewhere!

  28. The WEF, EU, UN/UNHCR, Klaus Schwab (retired), Keir Starmer, et al think so.

  29. 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.

  30. Not everyone has a solicitor on speed dial. I suppose the thing to do is to join the Free Speech Union.

  31. Josh, this has been happening in Oxford Street (a week ago last Friday late afternoon) and Nottingham (a few days ago). Copying US teenagers?

  32. UKIP and Nick Tenconi 🥰

  33. 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.

  34. Reform UK has already rejected Beau on the say-so of Hate Not Hope.

  35. 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.🙂

  36. 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)

  37. 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.

  38. David Perry (taxi driver) should receive the George medal for his quick thinking and courage.

  39. You can compromise yourself into non-existence.

  40. It's high time that Nigel Farage stopped throwing Tommy Robinson under the bus.

  41. 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.

  42. Fear not. The third chapter is: 'I was always against it'.

  43. They still will, if they get the chance.

  44. 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.

  45. 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.

  46. As a Scottish Unionist, all this makes me ashamed.

  47. Recommended U-tube channels: Benjamin Boyce's interviews with psychologists and detransitioners. Exulansic's U-tube podcasts. The most harrowing is about Jazz Jennings.

  48. It seems to me that the English legal system, being so dependent on precedent, is vulnerable to eccentric - even egregious - decisions by judges.
    14
  49. 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.

  50. 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.
