Tennyson classed as ‘queer’ despite lack of evidence he was gay

Alfred, Lord Tennyson has been named as an LGBT historical figure on a tour for schools, despite a lack of evidence that the poet had any homosexual relationships.

Tennyson – went on to found Fleetwood Mac

The former poet laureate’s personal life has been swept up in a project aimed at “queering” the history of the Isle of Wight, and he has been included on a list of the island’s “notable LGBT people”.

While there is no clear evidence Tennyson was homosexual, the Isle of Wight residence where he lived with his wife of 42 years has been included in a tour of sights linked to LGBT figures whose stories may have been obscured by “cis/heteronormative narratives”.

Trans indigenous Canadian slams doctors for denying her euthanasia request, says death better than her constant pain from a surgically-built vagina

An indigenous transgender woman has slammed Canada’s healthcare system for rejecting her euthanasia request despite the pain she endures from a surgically-built vagina.

In social media posts, Lois Cardinal, a self-proclaimed ‘sterilized First Nations post-op transsexual’ said regret over her medical transition led her to apply for a lethal injection in January.

Cardinal, who lives on a native reserve near St. Paul, Alberta, posted her medical records from the request online this week to draw attention to radical gender ideology.

Worms resurrected after 46,000 years

When the worm went to sleep in the Siberian soil, the pyramids had not been built, nor the hanging gardens of Babylon sown, and our ancestors shared the planet with Neanderthals.

When the worm awoke, 46,000 years later, it found itself in a world where it would be transported in aircraft and have its genetic code stored on a computer, and where not only had the Neanderthals gone extinct, but so too, it appeared, had the worm’s own species.

Climate cult’s crazed attack on white men

ADDRESSING a rally last weekend to protest against plans for a camp for 1,000-plus male Channel-crossing migrants to be sited in Bexhill-on-Sea,  I noticed a subtle but significant change in the placards of the usual small gathering of counter-protesters. Instead of ‘refugees welcome here’, the new slogan of the self-declared anti-racists was ‘climate refugees welcome’ (my italics).
