It took only one 2 million dollar lawsuit to break the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. NOW, they are saying gender surgery on minors is bad. After years of gaslighting. It will help future vulnerable kids, but thousands are irreversibly harmed. www.plasticsurgery.org/documents/he...

England's water companies have paid £85bn in dividends. Borrowed £82.7bn. 35% of customer covers interest payments and shareholder payouts. Sewage in rivers, insecure water supplies. Customer complaints up 50% last year. No exec prosecuted Govt response - abolished fines on water companies.

New York Times: 'In the first malpractice verdict against providers of gender-affirming care for minors, a jury in New York State has awarded a woman $2 million in damages for a double mastectomy she received as a teenager that she said had left her disfigured.' www.nytimes.com/2026/02/03/h...

1/2 The reports about the woman who had a double mastectomy in her teens, when she thought she was a boy, and has won substantial damages from her psychologist and plastic surgeon, who enabled it, are still using trans terminology, such as having a gender "assigned at birth", which is nonsense.

I think 'ban social media for under 16s' is simplistic and lazy. What about improving mental health services? How about education that doesn't put young people in debt? What about decent pay for young workers? Maybe opportunities to leave home? Perhaps a liveable planet? Some hope for the future?!

There really is, and long has been, a problem of misogyny among lefty men of a certain age. I wonder if they hide it in their youth or if it's overlooked. Either way, by middle age they seem to eagerly embrace it.

If children were being indoctrinated in schools by political or religious organisations I imagine a majority of parents would strongly object, but the indoctrination of transgender ideology seems to be unscrutinised. Teachers who allow this should be sacked.

“The law is clear” “The Supreme Court is clear — the Equality Act must be respected. That means defending single-sex spaces for biological women in services, in sport and in everyday life. That is what I will deliver in government." Good. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/scotland/...

Turns out that's simply not true. Rowling did not personally invite Epstein to anything. news.meaww.com/fact-check-d...

With the revealing of the ties between Epstein and trans doctors, can we now be honest that rich perverts & porn have driven the trans phenomenon? I always thought Jennifer Bilek sounded a bit like a conspiracy theorist, but it looks like she is on to something. www.the11thhourblog.com

Gender identity ideologues never miss an opportunity to demonise JK Rowling. Expect lots more reverberations of this particular lie. But, every time you see it repeated, remind yourself that they only do this because they have nothing else.

Looking forward to the next time the NRA try to justify their existence by claiming they're a vital bulwark against the threat of a tyrannical government.

In addition to murders & assaults, invasions of sovereign nations, laying siege to American cities, this very vile man raped little girls!!! The release of Epstein files is long overdue.

25 January 1883 | French Jewish woman, Lucie Sussmann, was born in Paris. She was deported to #Auschwitz from #Drancy on 28 October 1943. She was murdered in a gas chamber after the arrival selection. --- ▶ Gas chambers and crematoria of the Auschwitz camp: https://youtu.be/-A05i25j9Ck

'This is not about compassion, inclusion, or progressive values. This is about power: who wields it, who benefits from it, and who pays the price when working-class women dare to say “no” to those who demand their compliance.' Excellent again from Paul Knaggs. labourheartlands.com/jennifer-mel...

"Case of Jennifer Melle is not an anomaly. It is a symptom of an institutional sickness that has infected the NHS, the trade unions, and the Labour movement itself. We have allowed a luxury belief system born in the seminar rooms of elite universities to dismantle the safeguards of ordinary women."

"... not just institutional hostility but union betrayal [...] it has devoted its energy to LGBTQ+ inclusion, hate-crime training, and Pride celebrations. When its members are racially abused and suspended for stating biological facts, it goes missing." labourheartlands.com/jennifer-mel...

UNISON statement on the Darlington Nurses is a joke. If @unison.org.uk and other trade unions will not support their female members against management overreach as regards the basics, such as privacy, dignity & safety at work, why should women join the union at all? share.google/NNCsaX62EjI1...

Everybody knows Franz Kafka, but almost no one knows his sister Ottla. She was gassed on arrival at Auschwitz on Oct 7, 1943 after volunteering to escort a group of orphans from the Terezin ghetto so they wouldn’t be afraid.

Peaked

2. The Equalities Minister, Bridget Phillipson, continues to procrastinate over releasing the new EHRC guidance, which she's had since September. Why? Sometime soon The Gender Recognition Act needs replacement or repeal. It's bad law based on a fallacious belief that only a minority share.

1. The Darlington nurses won their discrimination case against an NHS trust, but a piecemeal destruction of unlawful practices is too slow. Sex Matters says, "The coming year will test whether institutions are willing to comply with the law – or whether they will have to be compelled to do so."

Oh dear. Denial is widespread on BS. Transwomen are clearly male. Otherwise they'd just be women. Being male is a necessary condition. So much antagonism to women's rights. Because human rights to equality as based on sex are an established & explicit part of international human rights treaties.

In this discussion, this man who doesn't understand the difference between sex and gender, or between science and belief, tells me that wanting to safeguard a safe and fair women's competition makes you responsible for ICE shooting someone. The dems will keep losing on this issue, won't they?

It’s the same way that any proposal that supports women’s sports, prisons, jobs and so on is framed as “anti trans”. It’s always focussed on how THEY feel, how THEY are excluded but rarely, if at all, on the affected women.

Unsurprisingly '75% of American adults said they do not believe trans women should be permitted to participate in female sports.' Everyone knows that single sex female sport categories are essential to uphold substantive equality. www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

The good news is that SIX seasoned federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned rather than engage in a bogus 'investigation' of Renee Good and her wife rather than investigating Good's killer. The bad news is that there are now six fewer honest, dedicated federal prosecutors with DOJ.

Don't be fooled. Reform are a clear and present threat to our NHS!

1/2 Wouldn't want to seem ageist, but I'm still amused by a suggestion, made earlier, that I'm not fighting for women's rights, from someone who enjoys some thanks to women like me. I've previously been accused of the wrong sort of feminism. Well, I think we owe more to the suffragists than to ...
