@northyorksc I need to find when my garden waste collection is due please. I have a permit, but whenever I try to use your website for my address it says it doesn’t recognise it. Most unhelpful! When is the next Kelfield collection please?

[Chris Webb @chrisadwebb]

@nikstorey_ Got to say I don't agree, Nik. It's the kind of deal we would've done in the past. A line needs to be drawn - and I'm happy they have drawn it & walked. Plus, talking of profile - the main characteristic I think we need is a desire to wear the badge. Clearly he wasn't too fussed.

Sources such as…? All seems a bit smoke and mirrors as far as I can see.

[The Football Spectator @Ball_spectator]

@chrisadwebb @AndyMitten @utdreport That's not true, he has incredible sources. But the endless grift is obvious nowadays

[Chris Webb @chrisadwebb]

@Ball_spectator @AndyMitten @utdreport Romano has cleverly created his brand but he’s got no more insight into what actually goes on behind the scenes than I do…and that is fuck all

[Chris Webb @chrisadwebb]

@BryansDess70012 @bigrobbo14 Funny :-)

@nikstorey_ And my issue with Keane is, whilst he may believe what he says he doesn’t seem to acknowledge the glaring contradictions in the positions he takes up. I do also (sadly) think he’s become performative at times. I wish it weren’t so, but…

[Chris Webb @chrisadwebb]

@nikstorey_ The rebuttal was that Keane was criticising him for something that he categorically didn’t say; that he has no objection to people criticised by and having an opinion, but not to lie about what he said

[Chris Webb @chrisadwebb]

@nikstorey_ Fair enough - agree with you on the choice of interviewer. I do think Keane shouldn't be allowed to get away with such fabrications and not have it called out though. I loved him as a player - can't stand his pantomime antics for a paycheck these days. Not so principled after all

@yorkbarbican What time would you expect Post Modern Jukebox to be on stage on Friday please?

Do you agree? 👇

“We’d batter them” is a MASSIVE understatement.

A man who claims to be a woman attempted to explain what women think about men who claim to be women. He completely failed.

*ahem*

• “They reject the distinction between gender identity and sex and that these two things can be in conflict”

No. We know that gender identity & sex are very different. In fact that is basically our entire argument.

Gender identity = a manmade concept.
Sex = Naturally observable over the entire natural world, including humans. Binary & immutable.

• “They are concerned with the safety & integrity of spaces that are typically reserved for women”

No. Not “typically”. *Are*. ARE reserved for women. “Typically” is an admission that you know the group trying to gain access to the women’s spaces aren’t women. Which is our entire point to begin with, sir. They’re men.

• “Trans people are concerned with safety & privacy in private spaces.”

Great. Then leave women’s spaces alone, respecting the women who want them, and focus on creating your own spaces catering to your “man claiming to be woman” needs, whatever they may be. We won’t stop you.

• “Trans people are seeking to go about their business & mind their business”

Cool story, but the problem is the process of that appears to be changing the definition of “woman” in law & gaining access to women’s spaces, services & sport. So we fight back because we are not willing to give up our rights & needs so men in dresses can “go about their business”.

• “We have had inclusive policies… and there was not a spate of people pretending to be trans, going into spaces & abusing anyone.”

Either a) you’re ignoring all of the cases of men invading women’s spaces & sexually assaulting women - we can name 10 examples just in prisons off the top of our head - because it doesn’t suit your argument; b) you’re completely aware & just lying; c) you argument is they weren’t “trans” which means they must have been making it up; d) even if there were no cases, it still doesn’t make men women!

• “Discomfort alone is not grounds to exclude people.”

No, it isn’t. Sex is. Men are excluded from women’s spaces on the basis of sex. We exclude all men, including men with a gender identity and men we are comfortable with.

It’s frankly unforgivable to speak this untruthfully about this issue in 2026, and it’s utterly shameful that two men just nodded along to blatantly obvious untruths. This is the intellectual equivalent of junk food.

Couldn’t agree more. He’s a born winner and should see out his contract.

[teresa smith @treesey]

Seems @susannareid100 and @edballs were right to ask Zack Polanski so many questions about his past life as a hypnotherapist in 2025, now the @RadioHumberside interview from 2013 has been unearthed

A bunch of white Irish left wing radicals wearing keffiyehs telling actual Iranian refugees they’re “puppets” for resisting a brutal theocracy and totalitarian regime. A truly Orwellian moment in Belfast.
