How manu now well-known men are making bank on this issue & I doubt any of them have sent her a penny of it. A number of grifters have put out the begging bowl for doing nothing more than repeating her research. She deserves whatever we can afford to send her for doing this work

[Genevieve Gluck @WomenReadWomen]

I've never done this before, but I'm struggling at the moment, and in the thick of it. There are reasons I can't talk about it, some are legal, but personally I know there are crazy people who want to see me suffer.

If you think that the writing I've done for the past four years - especially all of my exclusives about the prison system and the history of gender identity ideology has been valuable, or helped you in some way, it would be very much appreciated if you can spare just $5.

Everything I've written since 2022, building up the body of writing and evidence I have - which has been used in court cases, by Attorney Generals in lawsuits, and especially in a Supreme Court case - I've just been doing on the basis of donations.

I don't make much money for the work I do because I consider my writing to be a public service and I would feel ashamed otherwise.

I've never used a paywall. But, because of that, I'm not making very much at all, despite having dedicated years of my life - and, if I can be bold, important contributions - to this conversation.

I have worked hard, written hundreds of articles over the past four years, many of them exclusives, and I'm not funded by any think tank, just by readers who appreciate having more information.

If you're able to just give a few dollars right now, it goes towards my cost of living and some of the lawsuits I'm engaged in that I can't talk about yet.

@ruth_dixon Yes that must be what he means. But that is also an another appalling take. I can’t quite decide which is worse.

[Katharine Birbalsingh @Miss_Snuffy]

Michaela has two grammar schools nearby - one for boys and one for girls.

At 11, top set kids don’t get in. The ones who might have had a chance, sit the exam and don’t pass it.

Then they attend Michaela: we are their consolation prize.

But 5 years later, they get, on average, more than 2 grades higher on their GCSEs thanks to what they and their teachers do: work hard, no excuses, traditional values and teaching, warm/strict discipline, drive, ambition, and above all, the ability to ignore the haters.

They get GCSE grades that compete with Eton that costs over 50k per year.

They (and other lower ability Michaela kids) then do their A levels, do so well to compete with Winchester and other big boarding schools that cost a bomb.

In a school building with no trees, no grass, no sports hall, no car park for the staff to park their cars! With the trains so loud next to us that the heads of year can barely be heard in the asphalt yard.

Then their headteacher posts a ‘Hooray’ online with a few videos of them getting their results.

Happy kids. How lovely. 🥰

But what do the haters do?

ATTACK!

Over and over.

How dare I be happy our kids have done well! Apparently saying ‘hooray’ is ‘crowing’ and ‘over the top’ and I should shut the hell up. How dare I say anything: I should hang my head in shame apparently.

Without irony, these same people post about Jason Arday and how the hate sent his way was unforgivable.

But your hate for me has no bounds.

I said ‘Hooray’.

ONE WORD. ONE F’ing WORD.

You people are the worst hypocrites imaginable.

Inner city kids do incredibly well and you dare to criticise this as some kind of abomination.

Do some inner soul searching.

God knows, you need it.

When our GCSE results come out on Thursday, I expect the hate to come again. That will be despite the comprehensive intake given to us by the council like any other school, kids starting below their chronological reading ages etc.

The hate is always the worst in August: because that is when results come out.

Nothing you all hate more than seeing inner city kids succeed. Videos with brown and black kids celebrating.

You just can’t stand it.

Depraved and disgusting.

That’s what you are.

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

The Free Speech Union is taking an interest in the story of Jason Arday for a number of reasons.

First, we want to know who paid for the threatening letter from the law firm Carter-Ruck — effectively a SLAPP — that was sent to Times Higher Education in an attempt to get journalist Jack Grove to stop asking Professor Arday questions about his academic record.

Was it Jason Arday himself? The University of Cambridge? Or the Good Law Project?

Second, we want to know who reported both the academic and former professor David Harris and Times Higher Education journalist Jack Grove to the police, alleging harassment after they began asking Arday questions about his academic and extracurricular record.

In David Harris’s case, the Metropolitan Police referred the complaint to Devon and Cornwall Police, which rightly decided there was nothing to investigate.

But in Jack Grove’s case, he was contacted by the police and informed that he had been the subject of a four-month investigation by the Met. While officers said they would be taking no further action, he was told he should refrain from questioning Jason Arday again because it was also affecting Arday’s mental health.

The police should never be telling journalists whom they can and cannot question — particularly when there are legitimate questions that need answering.

Powerful people should not be able to use the police to silence journalists and academics who are simply asking questions and doing their jobs.

The Free Speech Union has written to Sir Mark Rowley, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, to ask what on earth his officers were playing at. He has yet to reply.

If Jason Arday was the person who reported these individuals to the police, that is one thing. But if it was the University of Cambridge, that would be even more serious — and is something FSU General Secretary Lord Young will be raising in Parliament in due course.

Oh, look.
Hugh got out of bed to tell us all that this is the first time he's heard of men invading women's sports.
Strange. So very strange...

I guess, that since he's not a woman, he has no idea that women are targeted by transvestites every day.

CRICKET NEWS: The inaugural Women’s Masters World Cup launched yesterday at Malvern College with an invitational women’s match between England and an International XI. Organised by the Senior Women’s Cricket Association the event has attracted players from all over the world for the month-long tournament that sees fixtures around Worcestershire and Wales.

But, spectators at yesterday’s match were somewhat puzzled to spot at least SIX male cricketers on the pitch.

Fielding for the International XI was Annalise (Andrew) Britton from Wales who told his Facebook followers how thrilled he was to have made his debut and looking forward to playing for Wales on Monday at Colwall.

Batting for England we spotted another male, Amy (Andy) Holmes a BBC journalist with 3 Counties Radio, who has previously spoken extensively about his ‘trans’ experience and is an LGBTQ+ mentor for the No Boundaries Cricket Club.

We also spotted two men on the pitch from Gunnersbury Women’s Cricket Club. Gunnersbury, one of the oldest women’s cricket clubs in the country, was very vocal in its opposition to the ECB ban on men in women’s cricket and vowed to ‘stand by their trans players’.

We emailed the organisers last week to clarify the entry criteria for the WOMEN’S Masters World Cup but received no reply. We wanted to know:

❓Why does the Women’s Masters World Cup include men, given the Supreme Court ruling that the word women ONLY applies to those whose sex is female?

❓Did the organisers ask all the women players for their written consent to play against males given the considerable increased risk of injury they face?

❓Is the event insured as a mixed-sex event? If insured as a women’s event do the insurers cover the additional risk of males bowling and batting at women?

❓Are the men using the female changing rooms and toilets - a clear breach of the law?

Reminder: the fastest recorded speed of a cricket ball bowled by a male is 100.2 mph. The fastest recorded speed of a cricket ball bowled by a female is 82.1 mph.

This milestone in women’s cricket should have been a cause for celebration. Last week hundreds of female cricketers descended on Malvern to celebrate the centenary of the first women’s cricket match at Colwall Cricket Club. We wonder what those women who walked out onto the pitch at Colwall in 1926 would have thought of the game they fought so hard for being hijacked by men.

It's mad to see people who 10 years ago would’ve been horrified at the thought of a middle-aged man in fetish gear going into the toilets after their daughter, but now are horrified at the thought of anyone stopping him.

What the f*ck has broken inside you?

[Claire Coutinho @ClaireCoutinho]

Not too long ago, stating that biological sex was real was a career-ending act of bravery.

Kathleen Stock was hounded out of her university job. Maya Forstater had to take her former employer to a landmark tribunal.

Kemi Badenoch and Rosie Duffield were told they were on the wrong side of history.

Our public bodies, charities, political figures, and sections of the media all lined up to condemn these women as bigots.

That establishment was wrong. The Supreme Court settled it beyond doubt: when the Equality Act says woman, it means a biological woman.

Every woman who was targeted for saying that sex means biological sex has since been vindicated. An apology is owed to each and every one of them, although I won’t hold my breath.

The EHRC's Code of Practice, which took effect this week, provides clear guidance to organisations on how single-sex spaces and services, like changing rooms, should operate on the basis of biological sex.

This is hugely welcome, particularly for the countless women and girls who have been denied their legal rights for so long. It is a tribute to the tireless campaigners who fought for years to get here, despite the Labour Government’s delays and attempts to water it down.

However, we should be clear that the Code does not change the law. All the Code does is provide guidance on how to follow the law.

Those who try to block the Code will not block the law that sits behind it. The Green, Lib Dem and Labour MPs who are pretending otherwise should know better.

Yet more than a year after the Supreme Court ruling, compliance is still falling short and there has been no accountability for the many institutions who have put women at risk of harm because they misunderstood the law.

Take the Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Even after the ruling, they continued disciplinary investigations against the Darlington Nurses, who did nothing more than ask for single-sex changing rooms.

They have not issued an apology for getting things so badly wrong.

Then there's NHS England, which has still not updated guidance that allows men to be placed on female hospital wards simply because they identify as women.

That policy is unlawful, yet it remains in force today - putting the safety, privacy and dignity of female patients at risk.

Things are no better in the prison system, where violent male inmates are still being housed in women’s prisons, where they share communal spaces with vulnerable women.

It has been a legal requirement to house male and female prisoners separately since 1823, but apparently that doesn’t apply if the man says he is a woman.

For too long our public institutions treated radical gender ideology as if it were gospel and treated women's rights as something to be tossed aside in the face of this new religion.

The Code of Practice is an important tool in reversing the spread of that ideology, but alone it is not enough.

Bridget Phillipson needs to get a grip and hold government bodies to account if they refuse to uphold the law.

Our institutions must establish why they were so vulnerable to being misled and how they will prevent the next faddish ideology that comes along from taking root.

We need institutions that we can trust, not ones that are so quick to abandon common sense and the law.

That is the least that women and the wider public deserve.
