  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. In Christianity, Pride is the biggest of the Deadly Sins

  4. 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.

  5. Ignorance of the Law is not a Defence. 🤔

  6. '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?

  7. Norway left the EU in 1983 to save its fishing industry.

  8. Rape has in effect been legalized for years - not taken seriously, hardly any convictions, derisory sentences.

  9. 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.

  10. My sympathy goes to his wife and children. Is it tactless of me to give them a mensh?

  11. 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!

  12. Welsh and Scottish Devolution should be repealed.
    11
  13. We need a complete moratorium on all immigration - legal and illegal - for at least five years.

  14. 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.

  15. Stop calling it Bonfire Night. That is a BBC pandering. It is called Guy Fawkes Day for a reason.

  16. I saw KJK's 'Let Women Speak' meeting in Oldham on Saturday 10th January 25, on U-tube. It was great, as always.😍

  17. Hans Christian Andersen's tales tend to describe girls suffering physically.

  18. Council housing is not free. Tenants pay rent to the Council.

  19. 'Virtue' signalling.

  20. 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.

  21. Ponzi schemes never work. This applies to demographic Ponzi schemes as well.

  22. 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.

  23. Stay safe, Rupert Lowe.

  24. 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.

  25. I did notice that immediately after Barack Obama paid a visit to Varadker, the latter resigned.🤔

  26. I believe that Malaysia went down the road of allowing Shariah in some cases for Muslims, and it caused lots of difficulties. India too.

  27. It makes you wonder about some of these judges, doesn't it?

  28. 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.

  29. 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 . . .

  30. She's a cash cow for her fsmily and associates.

  31. 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.

  32. 'No abortion under any circumstances.' This is not the Conservative stance on abortion. It is the Catholic stance.

  33. 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.

  34. As a highly educated, rich Brahmin, maybe she should try living like a Dalit?

  35. Britain needs to have a complete moratorium on all immigration - legal and illegal - for at least five years.

  36. '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.

  37.  @piping9153  Shetland has promised to secede from Scotland if Scotland becomes 'independent'.

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

  39. Varadker resigned immediately after speaking to Biden's team in New York.

  40. 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.

  41. Have just read 'Unmasked' by Andy Ngo. It is *required reading*.

  42. Btw, congratulations to Josh for his recent exposition of Prostasia, and the danger of paedophiles pretending to be Organisations that protect children.

  43. 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'.

  44. 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.

  45. 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*!!

  46. They don't care.

  47. 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.

  48. Jeremy Hunt's wife regularly appears on the Chinese equivalent of 'The Today Programme' (controlled by the CCP).

  49. 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.

  50. Water costs: I pay large sums of money per annum to a Chinese hedge fund that trades under the name of Thames Water.
