We cannot underestimate the importance of language: attempts to control its use is tantamount to thought control, it is as Orwellian as it sounds and it’s time to push back
“Trans activists seek to transform our understanding of human relationships, by winning support for the abolition of language which we have used to delineate our biological sex for millennia” https://t.co/FNbhqMU2dZ
@TraceyOMahony81 Whether you like it or not our political class take orders from the EU. That is why we have to accept as many immigrants as Brussels declares we must. On every issue of prominence today, climate change/ energy policy, gender ideology, hate speech, immigration, Brussels rules.
Gender ideology is now so accepted within the political and media class that as the Cass Report has revealed the wanton abuse of so many young people can pass almost without comment. Where for example is @Channel4’s team. They rightly love to expose a scandal. On this - nothing.
Absolute, total, shameless lies. Your ex-CEO referred children to the Tavistock gender clinic. Mermaids has repeatedly claimed puberty blockers are reversible, sent out breast binders to girls as young as thirteen and insisted publicly that unless children are affirmed in their trans identities they'll kill themselves. Your fingerprints are all over the catastrophe of child transition, and those who funded you, campaigned for you and allowed you to embed yourselves in healthcare systems need to be held to account.
@RuthDE Nationalism is a dirty word now. We all have to be cosmopolitan citizens of nowhere. Historians like Edwards and Roy Foster and their collaborators in the political and media class have tried to imposed this outlook on Ireland.
@RuthDE Ruth Dudley Edward’s diatribe against Sinn Fein is an expression of her hatred for all forms of Irish nationalism historic and contemporary. I won’t be voting SF not because of the past but because of their stance on transgender/ hate speech/ Gaza
Irish People before Profit TD Paul Murphy is all over Irish TV and radio justifying Hamas’s pogrom against the Jewish people. He can’t see that Hamas seeks to exterminate all Jews and to wipe. Out western civilisation. To take us back to the religious control of the Dark Ages
British politicians know perfectly well why the BBC avoids the word ‘terrorist’, and over the years plenty of them have privately agreed with it. Calling someone a terrorist means you’re taking sides and ceasing to treat the situation with due impartiality. The BBC’s job is to place the facts before its audience and let them decide what they think, honestly and without ranting. That’s why, in Britain and throughout the world, nearly half a billion people watch, listen to and read us. There’s always someone who would like us to rant. Sorry, it’s not what we do.
What’s all the big surprise about RTE. Anyone remember Catherine Zappone, CMO Tony Hollihan. He set up a nice little earner for himself. Now we see Tubridy did the same thing. What a corrupt shower of bastards.
Lee Cohen in the Spectator wrote that while most US presidents pride themselves on being “American as apple pie”, “Biden identifies as ‘Irish as Paddy’s pig’. Ha ha, Wokery not making any inroads at the Spectator.
@kenanmalik Mick Lynch is a trade union leader. His first and last priority is to ensure that the RMT continues to exist. This puts a limit on his willingness to defend even his own members. Workers can come and go but the Union goes on for ever.
