Navy personnel told to introduce themselves with pronouns in trans guidance

Royal Navy personnel are being told to introduce themselves with their pronouns before meetings in official guidance seen by The Telegraph.

A guide on trans and non-binary awareness tells staff: “Introducing yourself with your pronouns at the start of meetings and interactions is a good way to be inclusive.”

The guidance, available on the Royal Navy intranet, says: “Some people do not associate with gender binary and may use different pronouns like they/them or neo-pronouns like ze/hir/hirs. You should use the pronoun that a person shares with you.”

GB News Hands Critics Extra Fuel for Their Fire

Those who despise right-leaning GB News need no reason to attack it—some started boycotting before it had the chance to launch. But the British television channel, which has been running for just over two years, this week succeeded in handing over a good stock of ammunition, anyway.

‘Reclaim’ party leader Laurence Fox can always be relied upon to say something provocative (that is, offensive), which is surely why GB News hired him as a host and why he is often invited onto the channel for interviews. Talking to Dan Wootton, one of the station’s most high-profile presenters, on Tuesday evening, he asked of a young female journalist: “Who would want to s**g that?” Ava Evans, at whom Fox’s blatantly sexist comments were directed, said this has prompted her to receive threats.

There’s a barely hidden anti-God message in Wish, Disney’s newest film

Disney animation – not even trying

Recently, Bob Iger, Walt Disney’s reinstated CEO, announced that he intends to have the company “quiet the noise” in the culture wars. Judging by Disney’s newest movie, Wish, which is set to be released at Thanksgiving, “quiet the noise” doesn’t mean to stop inserting leftism into children’s entertainment. It just means being more subtle. Wish isn’t in-your-face with gender madness, but it clearly continues racial warfare, and it attacks the Judeo-Christian religious system of a male God who wishes his creations well.

The French government has vowed to tackle the “scourge” of bedbugs in Paris that threatens to overshadow the 2024 Olympic Games.

Social media users have been publishing footage of the insects crawling around in high-speed trains and the Paris metro, alongside a raft of online articles about bedbugs in cinemas and even Charles de Gaulle airport.

Emmanuel Gregoire, the deputy mayor of Paris, said: “You have to understand that in reality no one is safe. Obviously there are risk factors but in reality, you can catch bedbugs anywhere and bring them home.

Private jet service for rich dog owners condemned by climate campaigners

Environmentalists have condemned a “ludicrous” private jet service that transports wealthy people’s dogs, which this week ran its first flight from Dubai to London.

For £8,166, one way, customers were able to sit with their dogs on their laps and sip champagne as they travelled from Al Maktoum international airport to Farnborough in a Gulfstream IV-SP jet.

The company, K9 Jets, which is run by a husband-and-wife couple from Birmingham, already operates services to New Jersey, Los Angeles, Frankfurt, Paris and Lisbon.


I’m not calling for the business to be shut down, I’m fine with it. I wish to know the eco-hypocrites who use it.

Ontario man eats 50 Carolina Reaper peppers in record time

Before trying to set a Guinness World Record by eating 50 of the hottest chile peppers on the planet, Mike Jack set up a picture frame featuring two photos atop a table at a brewery in London, Ontario. One was of Terry Fox, the Canadian activist who in 1980 ran more than 3,300 miles on an artificial leg to raise money for cancer research. The other was of Thich Quang Duc, the Buddhist monk who doused himself in gasoline and set himself ablaze to protest the Vietnamese government’s alleged persecution of Buddhists.

That is amazing.
