I will say it now.
I love Scottish women.
Their "won't wheesht" stuff is more valuable than gold or rhodium and needs to be bottled and exported around the world.
Since the amazing, wonderful judgment this morning, I and my colleagues have been running around, giving interviews, talking to journalists who have FINALLY woken up to the fact that the law has been misrepresented and misunderstood for years. 1/6 https://t.co/O3AtQalW7r
A space-time portal opened up and a Tribunal Tweets record from the future fell through to the present day. All too believable, from the estimable Tim Pitt-Payne. Since it's on S*bst*ck, link in next tweet (the silliest of Elon's rules, honestly)
My thoughts on Trump's victory.
Like many people, I have been having quite heated discussions with friends and family in the USA about Trump’s victory.
To be very clear, I don’t welcome another Trump presidency, but I am relieved that Harris lost because her party, the Democratic Party, is wholly enthrall to gender identity ideology and the trans lobby, which I and many others regard as exceptionally dangerous.
JK Rowling has described it as ‘the quasi-religious socio-political movement that's doing untold damage to young people and women.’
I agree.
The response from my loved ones in the USA is invariably that the trans issue is minor and affects the tiniest minority of the most marginalised… etc.
Don’t I remember Charlottesville and the murderous and racist mob that Trump said contained “very fine” people? The grab them by the pussy comment? How about the successful civil suit for sexual battery brought by E Jean Carroll? Using tear gas to remove peaceful protesters in Washington DC? Stacking the Supreme Court to overturn women’s reproductive freedoms and Roe v Wade?
Yes! I answer, and I’m still relieved that Harris lost.
My loved ones’ voices express genuine fear of another Trump presidency, and I share those fears. Still, I fear more what *cannot* be said on the left in the USA, not without vilification, ostracisation and cancellation. It’s dystopian and scares me at least as much as Trump, in some respects more so.
Everything from blocking the physical, sexual and emotional development of children with puberty blockers, trying to change the sex of children, leaving all women with no legally enforceable rights and protections against any man who declares his gender identity is now that of a woman - just like that, magic, utterly unfalsifiable - and that includes women-only shelters and refuges, now any man can enter if he says he is a woman.
The most vulnerable women, incarcerated women who cannot escape, are locked up with males, including male rapists, some of whom have gone on to rape, impregnate and terrorise the women they are locked up with.
Men and boys competing in women’s sports. One of the Biden / Harris administration’s first acts was to effectively shred Title IX, which will disproportionately impact girls and young women from disadvantaged backgrounds, reliant on sports scholarships to go to college. This is quite apart from the unfairness of it and girls and women being forced to shower and change in front of trans-identifying boys and men.
Men are free to walk in on and expose themselves to women in changing rooms and saunas because, despite their swinging dick and hairy chest, they say they’re now women.
Lesbians are told they must accept men with penises into every area of their social, political and sexual lives, including their beds, or be labelled bigots.
I have seen and personally experienced how deeply vicious the trans lobby is, with its threats to kill and rape women like me and hound us from our professions when we say no one is born in the wrong body and no man can become a woman.
Women right now are losing their livelihoods and being discriminated against, facing violence for standing up to a trans lobby that Harris and the Democrats are fully enthral to. The idea that California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has bowed down and bent over for the trans lobby arguably more than anyone else, is considered a future Democratic nominee is insane.
I know of women who were loyal Democrats who could not vote for Harris because they feared her continued acquiescence to the trans lobby. They either didn’t vote or voted red in the hope that a Trump presidency would put the brakes on the trans lobby nationally and internationally, and that is my hope, too.
These are not small things; they cost the Democrats the White House.
Carlos Alba, the they/them strangely leading the media-wide attack on Alex Salmond's barely-cold corpse, wasn't always the proud, stunning and upstanding member of the LGBTQ+ community he is now. https://t.co/qAUlexmKFT
Carlos Alba has, as far as we can tell, has had 17 articles published as a journalist in the last 25 years. Why is he suddenly all over multiple newspaper front pages with a "story" that doesn't even amount to an interesting piece of fishwife's gossip? https://t.co/0hGXTIbMa0
If you have never questioned the official narrative of the Skripal Novichok story, please do read my article and some of the excellent comments.

Alex Salmond. Always My Hero. - Before Alex Salmond, Scottish Independence was an impossible dream, a romantic aspiration, outside the realm of practical politics. After Alex Salmond, it is the dominant question in Scottish politics and by far the biggest https://t.co/1NvHTvqntt
@sheepiefarm2@CraigMurrayOrg And what if you want to watch a sport that there’s no British participant? Tough luck? The Olympics is about tons of sports and tons of countries, not just the ones GB is taking part in
