Police are probing a sign threatening to ‘decapitate TERFs’ at a demonstration in Glasgow yesterday as JK Rowling mocked the ‘temporary blindness’ of SNP politicians who posed near it on her Twitter account.
The phrase appeared on a sign at a rally against the UK government’s interference with the Scottish Parliament’s decision to allow 16 and 17-year-olds to self-identify their gender, and was accompanied by a picture of a guillotine.
Letting 16-year-olds legally change sex is a dangerously naive idea.
This week, the UK government made the ground-breaking decision to block Nicola Sturgeon’s Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, which had been passed in the Scottish parliament last year.
One of the most dangerous and controversial aspects of the Scottish legislation was that it would enable children as young as 16 to obtain a gender-recognition certificate and thus legally change sex. So it was more than a little alarming to hear the UK education secretary, whose government had just blocked the bill, endorsing precisely this aspect of it.
Six months after National Defence claimed it was shutting down efforts to collect social media data of Canadians, the military was back again developing new technology to accomplish such tasks.
Defence firms and other companies were given almost $10 million to develop new ways to analyze social media and sift through accounts.
Is it me or is there just a lot more crap than ususal going on in Canada this week?

In what Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is calling a “full-frontal attack” on the Scottish Parliament, the U.K. Conservative government under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has decided to block the Scottish National Party’s Gender Recognition Reform Bill under Section 35, stating that the draft law would conflict with the U.K.’s Equality Act.
Except Canada where the mentally ill are used as a woke battering ram… Canadian Catholic school trustee fighting gender ideology hit with set back in court
A transgender women’s rugby player has spoken out about what it’s really like competing as a trans woman in sport, saying she can’t even ‘come close to the level of athleticism’ she used to achieve before she transitioned.
Emma Farnan, who plays for the Southern Headliners Rugby Club women’s team in the Premier Rugby (PR) Sevens league, told Good Morning America ‘being trans doesn’t mean inherently that I’m going to be a good player.’
The Boy or Girl? gallery, featuring a fake penis and chest binders, was removed after objections it was ‘not science’
The Science Museum has dismantled a trans-inclusive display following complaints it was pushing “propaganda” and not biology.
A cabinet titled Boy Or Girl? displayed quotes describing the transition from the “wrong body” as a “hero’s journey”, and labels characterising gender as something “difficult to define” which “may not match your biological sex”.
The display which featured a fake penis and chest-binding equipment has been taken down by the museum following complaints the information provided was “not science, but propaganda”.
It’s time to call out the nonsense of nonbinary
What’s more important – women’s rights or Sam Smith’s feelings? We’ve had a loud and clear answer to that maddest of questions over the past few days. It’s Sam Smith’s feelings. Of course it is. The right of this ear-piercing nonbinary balladeer not to suffer the indignity of winning an award with the word ‘male’ on it – despite his obviously being a bloke – takes precedence over the right of female pop artists to have their own sexed awards category and to pick up gongs for their work. Smith’s eccentric identity trumps your right to win prizes, ladies. Suck it up.
The model and actress Emily Ratajkowski, who is said to have 30 million followers on Instagram, kvetches that she seems to attract only “emasculated men” — by which she means guys who can’t handle a “strong woman” like her.
A product of the Sexual Revolution, Ms. Ratajkowski believes the essence of femininity is strength and confidence, while a man who isn’t attracted to tough babes is “emasculated.”
She wants a man who’s confident but also deferential.
A longtime Manhattanville College professor was banned from campus activities following an “awkward” transition from male to female — which included polling colleagues on what color wig to wear, according to a lawsuit.
The professor, who began at the Westchester liberal arts school in 1983 as Peter Gardella, now goes by the name Petra Gardella and uses they/them pronouns.
A Californian teenager sobbed before the city council as she told of her trauma at seeing ‘a naked man’ she says was a transgender woman inside the women’s changing rooms at her local YMCA.
Rebecca Philips, 17, addressed the meeting in Santee, a city suburb of San Diego, on Wednesday night to demand reform to the existing policy after encountering the unidentified individual.
She told the council how, two weeks ago, she was getting changed after swimming at the Santee YMCA when she saw a transgender woman naked in the changing rooms.
The U.S. Army has prepared extensive guidance for how to integrate transgender soldiers into its ranks, including instructions for group showers and how to respond to pregnant men, newly revealed training documents show.
Minnesota will soon ban faithful Christians, Muslims, and Jews from teaching in public schools by requiring that every state-certified teacher “fosters an environment that ensures student identities such as … gender identity … are … affirmed.” Once the new requirements clear a final procedural hurdle, they will be immediately challenged in state and possibly federal court, a civil liberties lawyer told The Federalist on Tuesday.
Delusional LGBTQ+++™ people think they’re going to discover a transgender utopia abroad where they can live their own truth or whatever, unmolested by the evil white man and his Christian nationalism.
