As another man who once worked with me declares himself saddened by my beliefs on gender and sex, I thought it might be useful to compile a list for handy reference. Which of the following do you imagine makes actors and directors who aren’t involved with the HBO reboot of Harry Potter so miserable?

Is it my belief that women and girls should have their own public changing rooms and bathrooms?

That women should retain female-only rape crisis centres?

That men don’t belong in women’s sport?

That female prisoners shouldn’t be incarcerated with violent men and male sex offenders?

That women should remain a protected class in law, because they have sex-specific needs and issues?

That language should reflect reality rather than ideological jargon, especially in a medical context?

That women shouldn’t be harassed, persecuted or fired for refusing to pretend humans can change sex?

That women should not be threatened with violence and rape when they assert their rights?

That freedom of speech and belief are essential to a pluralistic democratic society?

That troubled minors, especially those who are gay, autistic and trauma-experienced, should be given mental health support instead of irreversible surgeries and drug treatments on non-existent evidence of benefit?

That gay people shouldn’t be pressured to include the opposite sex in their dating pools, nor should they be smeared as ‘genital fetishists’ when they don’t?

That cross-dressing heterosexual male fetishists aren’t actually oppressed, but having the time of their lives piggybacking off gender identity ideology?

That said ideology, and the privileged, blinkered fools pushing it because they suffer zero consequences themselves, have done more damage to the political left’s credibility than Trump and Farage could have achieved in a century?

Let me have your thoughts.

Hiya @conwaywalsh . Very sorry for inconveniencing you earlier, though I didn't know the journalist was going to ask the question. Glad he did though. Your eye roll is spectacular, though your poker face is shite. Máiría.

Utter hypocrites

There’s more than DUP who need to set up an inquiry into what was known about Donaldson….

but SF waxing lyrical as they turned a blind eye to Mairia Cahill & Paudie McGahon rape, Liam Adams, who they protected, not forgetting McMonagle

[Máiría Cahill @cahillbooks]

Here is Gerry Adams in 2010 telling the Nolan show that he couldn't put Liam Adams out of working in youth clubs because "the guy denies the allegations against him."

He wasn't saying then that in 2009 his brother Liam - far from denying allegations - had instead admitted to Gerry during a walk in the rain in 2000 that he was an abuser.

Sinn Fein never sanctioned Gerry Adams for his failure in child safeguarding - or for lying about this case.

My content is being restricted in the EU under the Digital Services Act - the very censorship act I’ve been warning about for years.

Under the guise of "online safety" they put a search ban on my account and flagged my posts as sensitive/age restricted content.

The EU hates free speech because it threatens their power.

Love this: The Charlie Kirk assassination is inspiring Americans who have been afraid to speak

“My name is John. I have practically no online presence, and the reason for that is because I am scared to post things that I believe or really care about because I worry about what people will think of me. I am worried about missing out on opportunities because of an online footprint.

Yesterday, a man died. Presumably because he believed the same things that I believe in. I am a conservative and more importantly, I'm a Christian. I believe wholeheartedly that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, that he died from our sins and rose again, and that he is God.

I know that in the grand scheme of things, I don't really matter. No one knows or even cares who I am. But If there's even one person who sees this and gains the courage to speak up themselves, that's why I'm making this. Just so that everybody knows that we're not alone.”

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

Like all of you, I am utterly stunned and heartbroken and sick to my soul today. It is unimaginable to write these words. I met Charlie Kirk when he was 18 years old, a young man so eager and determined that I immediately turned to a friend and said, “That kid is going to be the head of the RNC one day.” Charlie became even bigger and more important than that. It was a privilege to watch this principled man stand up for his beliefs and create the single most important conservative political organization in America. But more importantly, Charlie was a good man, a man who believed in right and wrong, who stood by his Biblical values. All of us will miss him, and I can’t imagine the pain of his beautiful young family, and we must all pray for them. And we must pick up the baton where Charlie left it, fighting for the things he believed in so passionately. And we must fight for a better America - an America where good people can speak truth and debate passionately without fear of a bullet. I weep for Charlie’s family, and I weep for my country today. Most of all, I weep for Charlie.

"The Great, and even Legendary, Charlie Kirk, is dead. No one understood or had the Heart of the Youth in the United States of America better than Charlie. He was loved and admired by ALL, especially me, and now, he is no longer with us. Melania and my Sympathies go out to his beautiful wife Erika, and family. Charlie, we love you!" - President Donald J. Trump
