On the one hand we’re not investigating crime or responding to the public, but our workforce is adequately diverse

Another establishment stitch-up…

🚨A female inmate is suing the New Jersey Department of Corrections after alleging she was raped by a violent trans-identified male transferred to the women's prison.

In response, an attorney for the state suggested that the female inmate was transphobic.

🤯 Listen to this extraordinary exchange between Camilla Tominey and Labour’s Health Secretary James Murray. It is genuinely jaw-dropping.

Camilla: “You’re quite pro-trans, aren’t you? Do you think a woman can have a penis? Because you did previously?”

Murray: “No, I don’t.”

Camilla: “So you’ve changed your mind?”

Murray: “Yes.”

Camilla: “Why?”

Murray stumbles. He says he’s been thinking about the issue over recent years and would not now say trans women are women.

Camilla hits back: “You must have known that before. You are very well educated. How on earth can you have previously thought that a woman can have a penis?”

He had no real answer. Because there isn’t one.

This is not some backbench MP. This is the Secretary of State for Health, the man responsible for the entire NHS, puberty blocker policy, women’s health services, and child safeguarding.

He spent years either believing or pretending to believe that biological sex is fluid and that women can have penises. Only now, when the Cass Review, court rulings, and public opinion have made that position politically toxic, has he magically “changed his mind”.

Think about the damage done while he held that view. The eroded women’s rights. The confused children fast-tracked toward hormones and surgery. The female prisoners and athletes forced to share spaces with biological males. All enabled or ignored by senior Labour figures like him.

This level of ideological delusion at the very top of government is not just embarrassing, it is dangerous. Basic biology should never have been up for debate, let alone something a Health Secretary had to “evolve” on.

Possibly, as Minister for Health, James Murray could compel the adult gender clinics to hand over the data they refused to give to Cass. We might then find out just how much benefit these interventions confer long term, without needing to perform experiments on children too young to give meaningful consent.

Read the testimony of the ever-expanding numbers of detransitioners. Grasp that these young people, many of them extremely vulnerable - autistic, care-experienced, abuse survivors, same-sex attracted in unsupportive families - have been irreparably harmed, left with their fertility destroyed, unending medical complications and profound psychological damage.

This is a medical scandal of epic proportions and people of power and influence are still too frightened of trans activists and trans lobby groups to do the right thing and put an end to the insanity. Kids are being sacrificed to ideology and cowardice.

Girlguiding accepted this man to become a Girl Guide leader.

He had publicly accessible photos and videos online showing himself wearing stockings, suspenders and corsets, including some in which he appeared to simulate sexual acts.

In a letter to the organisation’s head of safeguarding, he acknowledged sharing changing facilities with women and appeared to see no issue with doing so.

He was later appointed to a 16-person steering committee set up to advise on keeping trans girls and women involved in the organisation, following the Supreme Court ruling and the subsequent ban on boys and men.

It took months of work to bring this and other concerning findings from my investigation into Girlguiding into the public domain.

Collectively, they raise serious questions about safeguarding and decision-making within the organisation.

A reminder that the PM/these Ministers have never met directly with women's rights activists. Some GC MPs have secret quiet little meetings on big issues, and may manage to negotiate abstaining from voting...

Ah, it is that time of year again, when @bbc5live gives the traditional two finger salute to those of its listeners who don’t like sport

Two and a half. This unfortunate little boy was "socially transitioned" by his parents before he was three years old, and is now profoundly damaged, and terrified of being "outed" as the boy he is.

This is child abuse. It must stop.

[Dennis Noel Kavanagh @Jebadoo2]

Under Labour’s section 28 a parent will be prosecuted from stopping their gay teen going off to gender GP.

Labour are causing gay conversion and pretending to fight it.

I think they must hate gay teens

[Sienna Rodgers @siennamarla]

🔥 The Women's PLP WhatsApp group is ablaze with fury over the @ShippersUnbound story quoting a senior figure describing Burnham as 'Labour's first woman prime minister'

Tulip Siddiq: "Who is this senior figure in our party that thinks Andy Burnham is our first woman PM? I'm sure Andy himself doesn't think that. The 'senior figure' needs to simultaneously shut up and apologise to Women's PLP"

Ashley Dalton: "WTAF? ... A man, I'm guessing"

Jen Craft: "IMHO the reason we have never had a female leader is a mix of internalised underlying misogyny, but more importantly the absolute wave of s**t thrown at any strong Labour woman who looks like she might be a viable candidate"

Alison McGovern: "This. Waves and waves of shit."

Polly Billington: "A period of silence from our male colleagues is always welcome. Now more than ever."

Etc etc

If you're here in Europe right now, squashed under this merciless heat dome, you're probably pouring with sweat.
That means you're losing water like a burst dam, & need to drink more water than usual to replace it.
What happens if you DON'T do that?
It's bloody terrifying.

Everyone who has been watching from the sidelines and hoping this madness would be stopped: it’s time for you to get involved in any way you can.

The bill is far worse than we could have imagined. I’m sure Lloyd Russell-Moyle is scratching his head.

- Write to your MP
- Hold meetings or protests
- Phone in to radio shows
- Gather evidence - including stories of those harmed by “transitioning”

*** Make sure everyone you know - especially parents - is aware of what is going on: including the proposal for five-year prison sentences for protecting your child from harmful drugs.***

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

No words. None.

[Caroline Struthers @Healthy_Control]

Yes. It is like deciding to do a trial of lobotomies on children before checking what had happened to children previously lobotomized because the child lobotomy clinics refuse to share the data. It. Is. Not. Ethical.

[Nick Wallis @nickwallis]

I told the last BBC DG to his face last year that if he didn't get a grip on the definition of "woman" in the BBC's reporting, we are all fucked. Because if our national broadcaster can't define a woman, society will start to break down. He told me it wasn't a big story.

The Scottish government has finally been dragged, kicking and screaming, into compliance with the law.

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

Watching KS speech back again on News. Beggars belief but he actually says, "I inherited a Party that was morally bankrupt". Seconds later, "..standing up for decency, respect, and the rule of law...". Yet he packed the Lords with his mates, took the freebies and chose Mandelson.
