I cannot believe we're finally having the "Is Islam homophobic?" conversation.
Yes. Yes, it bloody well is.
I'm genuinely shocked that people didn't work this out when ISIS was
throwing gay people off rooftops.
Or when polls found that half — yes, half — of UK Muslims wanted homosexuality to be illegal.
And before anyone says it, yes, that poll was 10 years ago. But do you seriously think those attitudes have improved or worsened now that we've imported millions of people from some of the most socially conservative countries in the world?
Nah, me neither.
* I've just dug up an old tweet of mine from 2004. I'm gonna post it below this because it's relevant*
Oh dear. Canon Clare of Sunderland Minster has had her arse handed to her by the trustees, who’ve obviously been advised by decent lawyers.
FAFO indeed.
Another woman's job is being threatened over her gender critical views. This time, Agnes Wold in Sweden.
Agnes Wold is a much-loved public intellectual in Sweden who is known for her feminism, her level-headed response to the COVID lockdown hysteria (she’s a bacteriologist), and, more recently, for refusing to go along with the transgender dogma that has gripped Swedish bureaucratic, activist, media and political elites.
On 20 May, the Swedish parliament approved an amendment to the law that criminalises “psychological violence” and “coercion” relating to “gender identity or gender expression (such as conversion practices)”, among other things. It is widely understood to be Sweden’s version of a conversion therapy ban (a more explicit law is likely if the left coalition gets into power in September).
Speaking on a radio programme about the law, Wold told the host that she would take 4 years in prison— the penalty for trying to prevent someone from leaning into their opposite-sex, delusion — before she would allow the gender transition of a grandchild (hard agree).
This comment set off major drama, with one famous gay media guy calling her the Swedish equivalent to “old hag” or “old crone”. Specifically, he said “get rid of the old hag. It is unethical of Sveriges Radio to give her access to a microphone,” which is a way of saying she should be fired from her public radio job.
Many, many people have called for Agnes Wold to be fired throughout the trans-mania era, and a lot of them seemed to be hoping that this comment would be the final nail in her coffin. But the remarks seem to have the opposite effect. Not only did Swedish people get very offended by this little shithead calling their beloved based radio-granny an old hag, they started to ask questions about the law that she was criticising.
And that, boys and girls, is how the omerta on the trans mass derangement got partially lifted in Sweden, and suddenly everyone started to ask: wait, what? Some kids think they’re in the wrong body and you can go to jail for telling them to snap out of it? Yes, dear Swedes, that’s what’s happening. Welcome to the conversation. We’ve been expecting you.
As of writing, Wold still has not yet been fired.
SHE REPORTED CHILD ABUSE 181 TIMES. BRITAIN SAID NOT NOW, THANKS.
Sara Rowbotham was an NHS sexual health coordinator in Rochdale. Between 2005 and 2011 she filed 181 detailed referrals to Greater Manchester Police and social services.
Each one named victims. Each one described systematic rape and trafficking of girls as young as 11. Each one went nowhere.
She was not ignored because the evidence was weak. She was ignored because the evidence was inconvenient.
Authorities labelled her not credible. Her team was dismissed. The official reason given for inaction was community cohesion.
Read that again.
Community cohesion. While children were being passed between men like property, the priority was keeping things quiet.
She was made redundant in 2014.
A 2024 independent review confirmed every referral she filed was credible, substantive and appropriately communicated. The same review identified 96 men still considered an active risk to children. Still out there. In 2024. Because the original response scraped only the surface and called it a job done.
Five police officers refused to cooperate with the review. They were not charged. They were not recalled. They retired on pensions.
Sara Rowbotham got an MBE.
The system that failed 181 times got a press release about lessons learned.
If this does not alarm you, you have not understood it yet.
@BBC@guardian@AndyBurnhamGM
Belatedly, a government guidance document upholds the Supreme Court ruling that a woman is – guess what? – a woman. 70 MPs have signed a rearguard motion opposing it. Presumably they think a man is a woman if he says he is. Among them is Layla Moran, for whom I used to vote.
I don’t even know how to put this.
The slow disappearance of those whom you truly believed were friends.
In the first blast you lost lots- so called friends openly attacking you, intsa stories, huge heat, utter lies.
Then the second wave- initially supportive, possibly intrigued, eventually disappeared.
Then the third wave- often years later- no return calls, no reciprocal invites, no shared big moments, but nothing ever said.
Now I’m in 4th wave!
The quiet creeping, silent unfriending. I find this rather hard to take. I thought, I thought I knew you were with me! But now I think my new success (or just survival) makes me unbearable.
Social media, cancel culture, ostracism, isolation, online interaction and huge ideological pressure is making the world a horrible place to be living right now.
Thank god I love my work, I love my roles, I love my family and I trust in my faith.
🚨A violent transgender pedophile was arrested in Hawley, Minnesota, on June 1 after being found in possession of firearms and threatening to murder police officers and their families.
Daniel Patrick Benz, also known as Danielle Marie Whitebird, has a long history of violent crime, including the sexual abuse of a child.
He was previously held in a women's prison where he was accused of sexually harassing female inmates, but was released in 2024.
Local news described Benz as a "woman" in reports on his recent arrest.
Michaela Hall: Another horrific murder in slow motion. The pattern is always the same. Another woman failed. Misogyny plays a role. How many more women will be murdered by controlling and violent men with significant histories?
Devon and Cornwall Police received 34 pieces of intelligence about Lee Kendall’s abuse. He had almost 50 convictions relating to 100 offences. He strangled Michaela. This is a high risk factor to femicide. She was a high risk victim. He was assessed as medium risk by Probation and released. That’s a flawed assessment. He was HIGH risk.
The police attended another call out to the address. The male police officer said over the radio, ‘What can you do if she don’t help herself?’ Michaela was murdered the next day, May 31 2021. Kendall grabbed her by the throat and stabbed her in the head.
My advice: Start by doing your damn job. Investigate and arrest serial and violent men. Join up their violent histories.
For many years I’ve campaigned for this alongside victims and families for a national register for domestic abusers and stalkers.

They are intimate partner terrorists who destroy lives and their histories must be joined up and future victims warned. For too long there has been ZERO consequence for these bullies. It’s the same story over and over again.
It’s time to change that ☠️
I stand in solidarity with Michaela’s family. Kudos to them for being Michaela’s voice and demanding accountability

Reminder that these lot turned up to Henry Nowaks vigil and screamed and shouted at the people morning his death.
Dear reader.. they had "Nazi go home" placards
@Greenpartygirly TEN trans people have been murdered in the UK in the last 15 years - and one of those was a transwoman killed by another transwoman. If you're talking about suicide then blaming others for it for not obeying demands is a well-known abuse tactic. Your persecution fetish is gross.
Incredible statement from Amnesty International UK on Henry Nowak:
Not a single word of conveying outrage or horror over the brutal murder, or of how police left him to die without dignity.
Instead, their statement is about policing the *political commentary* around the case.
I kid you not.
What a grotesque betrayal of any moral purpose.
These NGOs aren’t just useless - they actively despise you. They are hostile to everything you value and everything you hold dear.
Dr. Emmanuel Moss, the chief of cardiac surgery at the Jewish General Hospital in Montreal, is resigning and moving to the United States amid rising antisemitism 🇨🇦
He is one of the only cardiac doctors performing robotic heart surgeries in Quebec.
Why is Quebec choosing to protect hateful antisemites over heart surgeons who save people's lives?
‘Hardly any complaints’ say trans activists, about men in women’s spaces.
This is just one example of what happens when a woman is brave enough to say no…

#holdalljudgestoaccount
I protested outside every Crown court in England in 2024 because I couldn’t believe that judge’s have little or no accountability for their case management.
My daughter was left suicidal after her RASSO trial because the judge made many errors.
I could have lost her.
We trusted the system which we know now is not fit for purpose.
Recent cases have generated significant public concern and has only reinforced my view that accountability matters.
No one should want to kill themselves after a trial. No one.
Those girls were so brave to report being raped and yet they heard Judge Rowland praise the behaviour of the rapists.
Yes, the Attorney General has agreed an appeal is going ahead but I haven’t heard anyone demand that Judge Rowland explain his comments.
I hope Judge Lancaster has to explain why he said what he did.
No public office, however important, should be beyond scrutiny.
