A Week in the War on Women: Monday 8th May - Sunday 14th May GOOD NEWS SUPPLEMENT
grahamlinehan.substack.com
Yet another jam-packed edition full of good news from the gender beat. Enjoy! Worthy of Respect Rianne Vogels, who is described as ‘Norway’s Maya Forstater’, has won her legal case for unfair dismissal after she was sacked for her gender critical views.
A good news week indeed! I was also pleased to be contacted by Twitter just now to confirm a bloke I’d reported for threatening Graham has been banned. Nice. Thanks Elon.
Oh, thank you. What brilliant news on so many fronts. The news from Norway is very encouraging. Fancy that Vogel's statements were mostly factual! Who'd have thunk it, eh. And we'll done to Joanna Cherry. That'll show the blue-fringe brigade and the adults in fear of them. Every single venue cancellation barring free speech has been illegal, let that sink in. And think what kind of world these nutters and those afraid of them are ushering in. Fools.
Brilliant! I wrote to the organisers of a marathon i’m doing in october (a desperate ditch attempt to project myself towards the action man side of the mermaids gender scale), to ask them if the categories were based on biology or bullshit, no answer yet.
Glad to hear the good news 😊 thank you! Congratulations to Posie Parker and all the local groups & stewards! Can't wait to stamp the 200k peaked coin 🪙🔨🔥
I have written for the second time to my MP (male, Labour, Blairite) to try to get him to open his mind to BIOLOGICAL reality. It is an uphill struggle, but I will persist! I will also send it to the MP in the adjacent constituency (male, Conservative, moderate - not really a Brexit believer at all but forced to adopt the mantra).
I feel all warm and fluffy inside for a moment. Thanks for the usual great update. Is anyone else curious whether Joanne Cherry is still keen on independence? I'm on the fence on Scottish independence...I mean, go for it if that's what the majority wants, but lately I'd be ecstatic at the though so that I'd no longer have to fear any more crazy gender woo ideas they may come up with (like the new guidelines for trans kids in care) which could potentially impact the rest of the UK. Or maybe best to keep them in the Union so we can keep an eye on them.
Great that the Sex Matters petition will be debated and will e-mail my MP.
Also great that Hannah Barnes' eye opening book is shortlisted for the Orwell Prize - and how appropriate!
The cats killed me, especially the ones knocking on the door with their back paws!! I think all cats are slightly eccentric! Our cat thinks that the cat flap is beneath him ( presumably the trade cat's entrance?) and would prefer to sit at the door waiting for us to notice him!? I will show him the video and see if he can learn how to knock the door :)
Thanks as ever JL for WOW news summaries, good and bad. I am bracing for the unwanted onslaught of Pride TQIAA+ month, but this round up has given me a much needed smile and uplift that I can put in the bank for June 😘.
Thanks JL - always great to be reminded that the horror stories aren't the whole picture.
The Sex Matters petition debate is massively important. The EHRC have been making some very positive noises about it so just have to keep everything crossed.
And a big big applause for the "..blue haired pronoun wankers now sulking in the box office.." 🤣🤣🤣 I literally spat out me tea! Brilliant!
A much needed boost after the endless horror stories and the feeling that this will never end, thank you JL.
The cats!!!! incredible. I’ve had some weird cats but these take the prize. The one dropping the towel in the loo. 🤣
Thanks for the template to send to our MPs. I've sent mine and my husband will do the same.

“Blue-haired pronoun wankers”. Consider that term pilfered. Now who can I use it on...

Thanks for the wondrous relief of the GNS, JL.
