It’s always worse than we thought. Susie Green told the Tavistock how to “treat” kids who were questioning their gender.

Susie Green, then chairman of the charity Mermaids, was part of a task group reviewing services at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation trans clinic.

…

The Tavistock claimed that it did not have emails or minutes of meetings with Ms Green but after the information regulator threatened court action, it released more than 300 pages.

They show that Ms Green had a direct line to Dr Polly Carmichael, Tavistock’s director, and demanded to be regarded as a professional so she could refer ­children for treatment when their GPs refused. Ms Green, who has no known formal medical

Aha, so we know who wrote that dopy crude letter saying Make Stock Go Away that some dopy Oxford academics signed. We know because he’s boasting of it.

Breaking now: more than 100 @UniofOxford scholars and staff members stand by @OULGBTQ in our right to protest and for trans rights. Proud to have written and organized this letter, and I'm overwhelmed and emboldened by the support it received >>> https://t.co/nUveVuPbIS

He shouldn’t be proud. It’s a bad letter.

Doc Stock hints as much, but much more politely than I did.

Originally a comment by Cluecat on Calling themselves “Gold Command”.

It’s interesting, though isn’t it, that they have to do this each time.

They absolutely must go all out, every time, to attack, smear, dismiss any woman who dares to try to set a boundary. Any boundary. Particularly around a definition of female that excludes males – as with Sex being correctly defined as reality, not Vewy Speshul Identitay.

Women must not be permitted to say “no”. That’s the whole thing – it gives the game away entirely.

If women can say “No, males are not female”, then they will start getting the idea that they can say “no” to males under other circumstances, and that is totally unacceptable … Read the rest

The BBC reports on the Stock Spiral:

A group of Oxford University academics have signed a letter supporting the right of transgender students to speak out against Kathleen Stock, a prominent gender-critical figure.

“They have every right to try to shut her up!”

Another group of Oxford academics have already said objections to her invite go against free speech.

But the new letter said it was not a free-speech issue as revoking an invite “is not preventing them from speaking”.

When did we decide “invite” is a noun? When did we decide it’s the better word for “invitation”? When did we decide “invitation” is just too long and formal to bother typing? Four whole extra letters!

Anyway, to … Read the rest

Helen Webberley orders us all to submit or else.

This is a personal message to all those people that think it is acceptable to refer to some women as men.

It is not acceptable, it is deliberately misgendering and it has already been classified as a hate crime and you are guilty of that crime. https://t.co/invOvn8gR2

Funny that she dehumanizes us in the process of telling us we’re hate criminals. The wording should be “This is a message to all those people who think” – not “that” think. She must think we’re subhuman, and here she is saying so in public. To the dungeons with her.

It seems Australia is making it illegal to say that inducing an imitation of lactation in men and then feeding the pseudo-milk to infants is dangerous to those infants. Nothing must be allowed to interfere with men’s fantasies.

Last week a notice was given to my friend and former breastfeeding counsellor Jasmine Sussex by Twitter, advising her of an Australian law infraction. I met Jasmine in person just over a year ago at a Brisbane radical feminist conference, but she first contacted me in 2021 when I wrote an article in The Spectator Oz titled On “Chestfeeding”.

At this time Jasmine’s long relationship with the Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA) was ending in some level of pain and bitterness.

I saw this from Dennis so I hared off to find the details.

We now know a group of staff at the EHRC calling themselves “Gold Command” wanted the Baroness gone and submitted complains just before Kemi Badenoch asked the EHRC to advise on sex on the Equality act.

To whom did Gold Command report I wonder

Calling themselves “Gold Command” ffs. Apparently it’s a police thing, and Gold is of course the top rank, so they’re like Eisenhower on D-Day. Not that they’re at all stuck on themselves.

The investigation into Kishwer Falkner has been suspended.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission has announced it has “paused” an independent investigation into its Chair Baroness Kishwer Falkner.

On Tuesday, this programme revealed that Baroness Falkner was under investigation by an external barrister after allegations about her conduct from a number of staff. Our report also examined claims of a toxic culture at the Commission, allegations of bullying and harassment, claims that there is a high level of staff turnover and internal concerns about its independence and impartiality. The report sparked a lively debate, with accusations that Falkner was the target of a “hit job” by radical pro-trans activists inside the Commission. Today the Board said it had decided

Let’s look at the Bridges statement in more detail.

British Cycling has just banned us from racing. This was to be announced at 11 am today. But I’m done with this whole conversation being on their terms, and being controlled by them.

They have no authority to control this conversation anymore. Does it surprise me that the same organisation funded directly by a state that ships vulnerable refugees to Rwanda, violently clamps down on any political dissent that they disapprove of, or starves their people?

He lost track of his wording there. He surely can’t be claiming that British Cycling violently clamps down on dissent or starves their people, but that’s what he wrote. He seems to have meant can … Read the rest

This.

The Emily Bridges statement ought to be quoted accurately, and not toned down, or deliberately softened by selectivity.
Bridges said that British Cycling were "furthering genocide" and that the policy change was a "violent act"
That is an accurate reflection of the TRA discourse. https://t.co/mCBMEdaiOM

It’s not “furthering genocide” to keep men (however they identify) out of women’s sports. Men don’t drop dead on being told they can’t compete against women.

It is, in fact, simply another outrage to add to the long list, to appropriate the word “genocide” to name one’s unjustifiable resentment at being told “No you can’t destroy women’s sports.” The egotism and entitlement of it should be glaringly … Read the rest

Another thing about the reporting on this, by the way…in case it’s not clear enough already…is the way the news media ignore the reason “trans women” are so keen to do this: because it’s cheating. “Emily” isn’t really upset because “transphobia” or because he’s not being “validated” as a genuine authentic really real solid gold woman, he’s upset because he can no longer cheat.

The BBC implies (without actually saying) that it’s all about “trans rights” and incloosion and diversittee and respect and love and idenniny and yadda yadda when it must know damn well that it’s all about gaining an unfair advantage. They’re not children, they’re the god damn BBC, they’re not so stupid they don’t … Read the rest

BBC World at One’s reporting on the British Cycling ruling is jaw-droppingly disgusting. Everybody who talks is practically in floods of tears for poor darling fragile victim “Emily” Bridges and other men who want to cheat, and completely indifferent to women who don’t want to be forced to compete against men in their own sport. It’s so bad and unbalanced and just fucking misogynist I can hardly believe what I’m listening to.

The part where a woman voices Bridges’s statement starts at 12:06.… Read the rest

The BBC’s reporting on it is of course ridiculous.

British Cycling is to ban transgender women from the female category of its competitions following a nine-month review and consultation. Under a new participation policy that the governing body said was “predicated on fairness”, such athletes will compete in an ‘open category’ with men. Female races will be “for those whose sex was assigned female at birth”.

The changes will prevent riders such as Emily Bridges potentially being part of the British women’s team.

The Beeb goes on to quote at vast length from Bridges’s “who gives a fuck about women” statement. Oddly enough there is no matching statement quoted at vast length from one of the women harmed by Bridges’s … Read the rest

The BBC is helping India Willoughby and Emily Bridges campaign to destroy women’s rights.

So @BBCWorldatOne reads a statement from 'Emily' Bridges voiced up by a woman producer. This is an act of deliberate distortion, @JonnyDymond, implying to your listeners that 'Emily' is a woman and therefore right to be aggrieved. You know actual 'Emily' doesn't sound like that

Stewart Rhodes sentenced to 18 years.

Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years in prison Thursday in the first punishments to be handed down for seditious conspiracy in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. U.S. prosecutors asked for up to 25 years in prison and the longest sentence by far in the rioting to deter future acts of domestic terrorism, arguing Rhodes played a significant role in spreading doubt about the 2020 presidential election and led more than 20 other Americans to seek to use violence against the government to thwart the transfer of power from Donald Trump to Joe Biden.

Of course it’s really Trump who should be in the slammer.
