‘An artist who would go on to become a defining figure of..LGBT+ culture’

Not T+ at all. Did not speak about ‘trans’. He knew what a man was. This is the BBC profile by TQ reporter Josh Parry.

Here’s the other, better profile.

There’s a real problem here which is partly ‘our’ fault. Journalists simply haven’t challenged enough this activist idea that rejecting the Code can change the law. They haven’t sufficiently factchecked transactivist MPs, and have even contributed to this Code-led belief by stressing (constantly) the importance of waiting for the Code. Some have even ‘waited for the Code’ themselves in building their own policies.

Of course the National doesn’t explain in this piece either

‘The guidance bans transgender women from using female toilets, changing facilities and sports teams, and transgender men from the male facilities’

It’s wishful thinking on a spectacular scale.

‘Ms Grover filed late on Friday for special leave to appeal to the High Court [which] is expected to accept the landmark case. Ms Carew argues the evidence in the case does not support the court’s finding’

Now that it's been confirmed that the Scottish girl was indeed defending herself from adult predators, I'll say that every normal TERF saw it for what it was, and every WRONG 'UN in GC space slagged off the child. It was a litmus test with 100% accuracy. Take note of who is who.

[SEEN in Journalism @JournalismSEEN]

The most problematic elements of this report - apart from the selective nature of the story choice - are the rewriting of ‘trans’ into LGB history, the deployment of mainly T sympathetic voices and the incorrect description of the flag as Pride, not Progress. The Progress flag is indubitably a trans flag and there’s huge controversy around its appropriation of the rainbow, which this report fails to reflect.

Last year, a video went viral of a scared, 12 year old girl in Dundee.

She was waving weapons, shouting at a migrant to leave her alone.

Almost immediately, many on the left were calling this girl a liar (and worse). They were saying the “far-right” were whipping up ‘anti-migrant hate’.

People like @HumzaYousaf & many more called it ‘bullsh*t’.

Many, including people like @jdpoc while calling her a liar & talking about her ‘hatred’, showed pictures of the little girl. Just to make sure everyone knew who the ‘liar’ they were talking about, was.

A fundraiser for the girl was mocked, suggesting she’d use the money to buy “machetes and IronBru”

She was a child. Their posts were seen by hundreds of thousands of people.

She wasn’t ‘hate-filled’, she was scared.

Yesterday, her version of events was proven to be true. She was sexually harassed by a migrant and another child physically assaulted too.

The man and his sister were prosecuted.

How shameful that children need to arm themselves for protection.

How shameful that adults will deny their reality.

How shameful that some people are so desperate to defend migration into this country, that they will literally mock children who are victims of their crimes.

Shame on you all.

I’ll be fascinated to see how many of you publicly apologise to the girl, in the same public way that you called her a liar.

I won’t hold my breath…

I hope this girl is ok.

You are my MP. I asked to meet with you, but your minions suggested you had more important business. I think you are a terrible representative of women. And a coward.

[Natalie B 🔶️ @Nat_freespeech]

My appeal is going smoothly. The County Court is going to reconsider the amount of my damages which I say should be far higher than £14,000. I am hoping this will be sooner rather than later as it has taken so long to get here.

‘NUJ statement on revised EHRC Equality Act Code of Practice’

https://t.co/6Bm02cnJrq

‘The NUJ stresses that the media, like has a responsibility to treat transgender people with fairness, integrity and respect. The NUJ encourages members and the wider media to follow the union’s code of conduct and LGBT+ reporting guidelines.

And here are those guidelines, which refer journalists to Trans Media Watch

https://t.co/0QFYwwNZUe

This is the TMW media guide

https://t.co/mCkurOitDV

The NUJ is completely captured.

[Mara Yamauchi @mara_yamauchi]

It is very alarming how many MPs seem to be unaware of the fact that the law will remain the law regardless of whether the EHRC guidance becomes statutory or not.

MPs make laws. That is their job. And these >120 seem to not understand how the process of making laws works.🤦‍♀️

[Helen Duignan @HelenDuignan2]

WHAT was Craoibhin Childcare in Letterkenny thinking? We entrust our children to these facilities & they recruit a man in a dress who calls himself Aleena Starshine?? The crèche should be prosecuted for endangering children. It only took Mister Starshine 4 days to proposition an 11 year old child.

Chippenham operatives are assembling ready for Saturday 13 June.

Given that Wiltshire Police appear to think they are under a duty to wrap themselves in Progress and Trans flags to show their 'support' for a marginalised community, I am hoping to gather many relevant photos and videos in time for my substantive JR hearing this autumn.

Then on to Swindon Pride August 15.

[Graham Linehan @Glinner]

This is so great to hear. Also great to hear the howls of outrage from the dumbest generation of politicians to ever walk the earth.

[SEEN in Journalism @JournalismSEEN]

This wouldn’t be a problem if it didn’t operate in synergy with the media’s adoption of self-identification.

But it does. On the BBC’s 50:50 database, those six men will be counted as women. Not only have six women’s voices been erased, the record of that erasure is deleted.

My dad, who died in 2014, would have been 76 if he had lived to his birthday which is today.

Here’s a video of him at the opening of his men’s clothes shop, Bogart, which is still going today. I think he was only 24 in this video.

“New rules” @EmilyThornberry?

It’s statutory guidance. Surely you know the status of statutory guidance? Surely you understand it’s not law? And that if it’s blocked the law will simply remain the law? Incredible if not.
