Monday 19th June - I Can’t Believe It’s Not Satire
THE TELEGRAPH: A secondary school teacher castigated two 13-year-old girls who dared to question gender identity ideology.
A recording has been shared on social media in which a teacher at Rye College in East Sussex can be heard attacking two 13-year old pupils in a row about gender ideology.
The discussion began at the end of a ‘life education’ class in which pupils were told to, “Be who you want to be and how you identify is up to you”. One of the Year 8 students, backed up by her friend, took issue with this statement. The teacher instructed the two girls to remain behind after class and warned them that they had to toe the line. At this point, one of the girls began secretly recording the conversation.
One of the pupils commented that she knows there are only two ‘genders’, pointing out, “There’s only a boy and girl. There’s no other private parts”.
The teacher asked the girls, “Where did you get this idea from that there are only two genders?”. She told them that, “Gender is not linked to the parts that you were born with, gender is about how you identify”. She then claimed that there are three biological sexes, insisting that some people are ‘intersex’ (her word) and they are “Born with male and female body parts”. She also told the girls, “There are lots of genders – there is transgender, there is agender who are people who don’t believe that they have a gender at all”.
The brave girls stood their ground and refused to be browbeaten. They told the teacher that they didn’t agree with her and said there is no such thing as ‘agender’ because, “If you have a vagina you’re a girl and if you have a penis you’re a boy – that’s it”. The teacher described their views as ‘really despicable’ and ‘very sad’ and went on to claim that such opinions cause homophobia.
The girls continued to argue in favour of biological reality and the teacher, now clearly irate, told them, “If you don’t like it, you need to go to a different school”. She then said she would report them, insisting, “You need to have a proper educational conversation about equality, diversity and inclusion because I’m not having that expressed in my lesson”. (By ‘that’ she is presumably referring to scientific fact?)
Barry Blakelock is the Executive Headteacher at Rye College and Rye Community Primary School. In November 2021 he became a trustee of LGBTQ ‘equality and diversity’ charity, METRO.
He provides ‘equality, diversity and inclusion’ training to student teachers.
Does he tell them to teach contested and controversial ideology as fact and berate the pupils who challenge it? Because that appears to be the MO at his own school.

REDUXX: A politician in the Japanese Communist Party who supported self-ID legislation has pleaded guilty to voyeurism offences in female toilets committed while he was disguised as a woman.
42-year-old Wataru Onishi is a Japanese politician. In November 2022 he was apprehended after taking ‘up skirt’ videos of women using the female toilet in JR Nishi-Chiba railway station, placing his smartphone under the cubicle doors. When police investigators attended the scene, Onishi confessed to the crime. According to local news reports, Onishi had been disguised as a woman while committing these crimes in an apparent attempt to record his victims without raising suspicion.
While authorities were investigating Onishi’s crimes of voyeurism, they also uncovered further evidence of predatory behaviour; an act of public exhibitionism and threats of rape. Onishi admitted to terrorizing a 19-year-old female university student. He had written her a letter, placed in the basket of her bicycle, which spoke of filming her ‘sexy behind’. He told her that “Now everyone wants to rape you” and concluded, “I’m looking forward to it”. Furthermore, Onishi had smeared the young woman’s bicycle seat with his own semen.
This week Onishi was sentenced at Chiba Prefecture District Court. He was given a three-year suspended sentence with a recommended one-year prison term.
Onishi is the former Committee Secretary for Japan’s Communist Party (JCP) in Chiba Prefecture. In that role, he was a very vocal supporter of controversial legislation which will enshrine self-declared ‘gender identity’ as a protected characteristic.
Gender identity is the perfect Trojan horse for men like Onishi. Little wonder that many of the men who so vehemently support an ideology which erases the basic safeguarding protocols protecting women and children frequently turn out to be sexual predators. (See also Peter Bright, Eric Joyce, Gordon Pike, David Smith etc…) When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

BELFAST TELEGRAPH: A convicted paedophile who appears to be male is being described as a ‘woman’ in all the articles reporting on his crimes.
This week, in Belfast Crown Court, 46-year-old Isobel Murphy pleaded guilty to six separate child sex offences committed in May and June in 2021. From the photograph used in all the media reports, Murphy appears to be male.
Furthermore, one offence to which he pleaded guilty - inciting a child to engage in sexual activity involving penetration - also strongly suggests that Murphy is a man.
However, not one of the news outlets reporting on this case mentions any trans status. ITV News, The Belfast Telegraph and Belfast Live all describe Murphy as a ‘woman’ and refer to him with female pronouns.
It seems unlikely that Murphy really is female. But the lunacy of gender ideology means we can no longer trust the press to tell us the truth about something as basic as the sex of a convicted sex offender.
Tuesday 20th June - First Do No Harm
THE TELEGRAPH: A young woman who was treated at the Tavistock in her teens has spoken about being an ‘experiment gone wrong’.
As a child, Jasmine gravitated towards clothes and toys traditionally deemed male. She was introduced to the possibility of ‘transitioning’ on social media sites. “I watched videos of people transitioning online documenting the voice changing as they go on hormones or vlogging their surgeries... And they look so happy. And I wanted it so badly.”
Jasmine was referred to the Gender Identity Development Service at the NHS Tavistock and Portman clinic by a ‘trans charity’. There she was seen by healthcare professionals on just three occasions. She says that she was honest about having a history of self-harm and mental health issues. These co-morbidities did not seem to concern her clinicians; at only her second 45-minute appointment, she was referred for a prescription of cross-sex hormones and put on the waiting list for a double mastectomy. She was just fifteen years old.
Jasmine had surgery to remove both her breasts which, she said, only “Made things a lot worse”. She also took testosterone for over a year.
When Jasmine decided to detransition, she said that GIDS immediately discharged her and withdrew all responsibility for her care. “No one checked up on me… They just instantly said, okay, you’re no longer a patient here, and if you want to see us again, you have to go to the beginning of the waiting list. You’re on your own.” Consequently, she doesn’t yet know how her treatment has affected her fertility or internal health.
Of course, she had a double mastectomy which is irreversible and the testosterone she took has made permanent changes to her body meaning she now has to shave her face daily and her voice is unnaturally low. She said, “I kind of feel a little bit mutilated and like an experiment gone wrong walking through society sometimes”.
Doesn’t it break your heart?
Wednesday 21st June - Auntie’s Groomers
The BBC is to adapt Paris Lees’ memoir, What it Feels Like for a Girl, in an 8-part drama series for broadcast on BBC3 and the BBC iPlayer.
The BBC has long been a cheerleader for gender woo. As far back as 2014, BBC Radio 4 was uncritically promoting trans ideology with its drama, Just a Girl, about a child supposedly ‘born in the wrong body’. The central character was a male child who ‘felt’ like a girl and so, we were led to believe, he really was a girl. Now called Amy, he likes pink, he must have puberty blockers, parents are cruel for preventing their daughters from attending a sleep-over with him and anyone who dares to challenge this wisdom is a nasty old bigot. The website credited “Susie Green and the parents at Mermaids and the Tavistock clinic” for their help in producing the programme.
The BBC’s output aimed at children has been particularly propagandist. First broadcast in 2014 and screened several times since then, the documentary, I Am Leo, features a 13-year-old girl who was identifies as male. Upholding harmful stereotypes, it promotes puberty blockers as harmless and suggests to kids that a person can choose their own sex.
A few years ago BBC children’s channel, CBBC, screened an Australian drama, First Day, about a 12 year old boy who identifies as a girl called Hannah. Safe Schools Alliance reviewed the programme for its website, saying that the sole purpose of the programme, “Is to manipulate young children into emotionally embracing a trans agenda”. BBC children’s output has also professed that there are over a hundred genders, encouraged the use of ‘preferred pronouns’ and tacitly validates the word ‘cisgender’.
The BBC continues to ram this ludicrous ideology down licence-payers’ throats and recent output has been loaded with pro-gender ideology themes and storylines. An interview with Elliot Page, a documentary about trans-identified male, Lily, and his ‘transition’, a documentary, Not Your Average Family, which features a trans-identified female, Charlie, primetime drama, Casualty, normalising the amputation of healthy breasts via a ‘non-binary’ character and, as Nutmeg has reported, daytime soap, Doctors, has been heavily dosed with trans activist propaganda.
And now the BBC is going to produce an 8-part drama based on Paris Lees’ teenage memoir, What it Feels Like for a Girl, with Lees himself the writer and exec producer.
Lees’ early life - the homophobic bullying he suffered, his exploitation by predatory men, his experience in a young offenders’ institution etc - is perfectly valid subject matter for a TV drama. However, the premise that Lees somehow always ‘knew’ he was really a girl is a misogynistic insult and upholds the most offensive tenet of gender ideology; that being a woman is merely a ‘feeling’ or an ‘identity’.
Paris Lees lays claim to being a woman by adhering to the most damaging and regressive stereotypes of femininity. He uses the sexual objectification of women as validation of his gender identity. “I love wolf whistles and cat calls”, he says. “I like being eye-fucked on the escalator and wondering if I've just made a guy pop a boner.” Describing a holiday in Ibiza, he once wrote, “I was catcalled, sexually objectified and treated like a piece of meat by men the entire week. And it was absolutely awesome”.
No matter how much of its licence fee our national broadcaster spends trying to convince us otherwise, Lees does not know and will never know, ‘what it feels like for a girl’. Because he is a man.
As Joan Smith writes in Unherd, “The BBC has an apparently endless appetite for making programmes that recycle the claims of trans activists. If the corporation is really interested in what it means to be a girl, maybe it could ask one?”
Thursday 22nd June - This Never Happens #2
REDUXX: The former friend of a convicted trans-identified male paedophile has spoken out about being ‘groomed’ by him when she was extremely vulnerable.
In May we reported on 66-year-old trans-identified male, Tanya Howes, who pleaded guilty to three charges of possessing indecent images of children and a separate charge of possessing 100 ‘grossly offensive’ extreme pornographic images and videos.
He had previously admitted possessing 39 indecent images of children deemed category A (the most serious classification indicating images which depict penetrative sexual activity, sexual activity with an animal or sadism), 17 images deemed category B and 29 images deemed category C.
He was recorded on court documentation as female.
Prior to his sentencing, magistrates approved an application from Norfolk Probation Service requesting an extension to complete reports, including a referral of the case to the Transgender Case Board.
Transgender Case Boards were introduced in 2017 to make decisions regarding ‘the care and management’ of trans-identified prisoners who are in custody. A probation officer told the Norwich court, “Our policy dictates that a transgender board needs to be consulted in order for this person to then go on to be sentenced… Also making sure the appropriate factors are identified given the nature of the case.”
In the past, Howes has frequently posted sexualised images of himself on his public social media accounts and discussed sexual activities and fantasies. Most posts aren’t suitable for publication. In one series of photographs, Howes is pictured wearing a tiny miniskirt, lace-top stockings and a t-shirt which reads “I am a prostitute. This slut works for money”.
In other images he is naked, wrapped in cling-film, masturbating with sex toys, dressed as a baby in nappies or posing on all-fours in women’s lingerie.
Since details of his case have been made public, a young woman Howes once befriended has spoken anonymously to Reduxx about her relationship with him.
Jennifer (a pseudonym) first met Howes, almost 40 years her senior, in 2016. She was escaping an abusive relationship and pregnant with her second child at the time. She believes that Howes took advantage of her vulnerability, making her virtually dependent on him, and she now recognises his behaviour as grooming.
“I was on my own. Mentally, I was in a bad place. He used that to get to me”, she said, adding, “I think I overlooked some of his behaviours because I didn’t want to be seen as prejudiced or transphobic”.
She spoke of his closeness to her children and those of other families, explaining that he would offer to babysit. Jennifer ended her friendship with Howes in 2018 after warnings from other people in their circle.
Howes has been released with unconditional bail until his sentencing hearing which is scheduled for 4th July. Jennifer told Reduxx that he is currently living adjacent to a children’s playground.

THE DAILY MAIL: A trans-identified male has been convicted of a brutal hammer attack on a young Asian man.
In March 2022 a 29-year-old Asian man was the victim of an unprovoked attack when he was travelling in NYC. A male wearing a wig and purple lipstick bumped into him on the subway and, after exchanging a few words, launched a brutal attack, smashing the man in the head with a hammer. The victim, who was left dazed and bleeding, described his attacker as ‘aggressive’ and ‘looking for trouble’.
The attack was caught on a camera by another passenger using a mobile phone.
The following day 49-year-old Christian Jeffers, who ‘identifies as a woman’, was taken into custody and a hammer was discovered in his handbag.
According to police, Jeffers has a lengthy criminal history beginning in 2007 and involving 47 prior arrests on charges including prostitution, grand larceny, public lewdness and drug possession. Jeffers was released from prison in June 2021 after serving six years for second-degree robbery and, just a week after release, was arrested for petit larceny.
Jeffers appeared in court this week wearing a white scarf, a white shirt and make-up. He was found guilty of attempted assault, assault, criminal possession of a weapon, menacing and aggravated harassment. He will be sentenced at a later date.
Friday 23rd June - Lidl & Gentleman
EL ESPAÑOL: A trans-identified male in Malaga has accused a supermarket employee of ‘transphobia’ because she referred to him as a ‘gentleman’.
Cristina Alias is a 46-year-old trans identified male who began ‘transitioning’ at the age of 40. He is the president of Malaga trans lobby group, Trans Huella.
He has made public a complaint against an employee of a Lidl branch in Malaga because she referred to him as ‘caballero’. (In Spanish, ‘caballero’ is a polite/respectful term with which to refer to men, similar to ‘sir’ or ‘gentleman’ in English.)
Having already left the Malaga branch of Lidl, Alias decided to return to the supermarket because he wanted to make a formal complaint about being asked to use a self-service till while shopping there earlier in the day. In arranging for the complaint forms to be brought to him, a female employee referred to Alias as ‘cabellero’.
By his own admission, Alias was unshaven at the time. He told El Español, “I go as I feel comfortable. If I don't I feel like shaving, that's it”. He added, “Clothes have no gender. Society assumes that if you dress in one way you are a woman and if you go another you are a man”. One can understand why the female staff member didn’t immediately realise that Alias ‘identifies as a woman’.
When Alias told her that he is trans, she immediately apologised. However, her apology wasn’t heartfelt enough for Alias. “She did not apologize from her heart, but out of fear of the consequences”, he said. So, via his organisation, Trans Huellas, he posted on social media to accuse the Lidl employee of ‘transphobia’.
Alias now believes that Lidl should be fined for not properly training its staff on trans issues. Whilst claiming he does not want compensation, he has offered to undertake a paid ‘awareness talk’ at the supermarket.

KNRV: A trans-identified male and former New Hampshire politician has been arrested over child sexual exploitation images.
We have reported on Stacie Marie Laughton in the past. Born Barry Charles Laughton, he is 39 years old and has had a chequered political career. In 2008 Laughton was convicted of credit card fraud and falsifying physical evidence, crimes for which he served time. Claiming a trans identity, he says he began his ‘transformation’ after being released from prison.
In 2012 he was elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives, representing Nashua’s 4th Ward. Laughton had not disclosed his felony conviction during his campaign and, after his election, it was revealed he had not received his ‘final discharge’ from prison and thus was ineligible to hold public office. He was forced to resign. In 2015 he was convicted of and received a suspended prison sentence for making a bomb threat against the Southern New Hampshire Medical Centre.
Laughton was allowed to run for office again in 2019 and led a successful campaign to be elected as a Nashua Ward 4 selectman. The following year he won a two-year term in the New Hampshire House of Representatives.
In November 2022, just days after his re-election to the state legislature, he was arrested on stalking charges. It is alleged that he violated a domestic violence order by stalking a woman whose anonymity is being maintained by the Hudson Police Department for her own safety. According to the police, Laughton also violated this restraining order earlier in the year; he was arrested in September after having tried to make contact with the victim.
This week Laughton was arrested on charges involving the distribution of child sexual abuse materials.
Nashua Police have indicated that his case is connected to the arrest of New Hampshire woman, Lindsay Groves, with whom it is alleged Laughton has a close relationship. Groves, who works at a daycare centre in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts, is accused of taking explicit photographs of the children in her care and then sharing these images with an unnamed individual by text message.
Saturday 24th June - This Never Happens #4
LANCASHIRE TELEGRAPH: A long-term recidivist sex offender who now ‘identifies as a woman’ has been sentenced for offences relating to child sex abuse images.
Described as a ‘dangerous paedophile’, 54-year-old Stuart Bulling has 11 convictions for 57 sexually based offences, including indecent assault and the sexual assault of a child under the age of 13.
In May 2022 police visited Bulling’s home and seized various devices and SD cards which were then examined. Officers found 125 images deemed category A (the most serious classification indicating images which depict penetrative sexual activity, sexual activity with an animal or sadism), 93 category B images, 42,587 category C images, seven extreme pornographic images and one prohibited image. Furthermore, police found video recordings of children taken by Bulling himself in public places.
In March this year Bulling pleaded guilty to five counts of making indecent images of children and nine breaches of his sexual harm prevention order. This week, he was sentenced in absentia at Preston Crown Court. Recorder Michelle Brown said she believed Bulling poses ‘significantly high risk’ and a ‘high risk of re-offending’. She sentenced him to three years and eight months in prison and three years on extended license. He was also made subject to an indefinite sexual harm prevention order and must sign the sex offender’s register for life.
According to Bulling’s solicitor, Bob Elias, “He identifies as a woman in his normal life”. Of course he does.
(Kudos to the Lancashire Telegraph for referring to Bulling with male pronouns throughout its article.)

THE AUSTRALIAN: A group of trans activists have vandalised buildings at the University of Melbourne to protest a lesbian feminist’s lectures.
Philosopher, Dr Holly Lawford-Smith, is a gender critical feminist and an associate professor at the University of Melbourne. She has spoken out about the dangers of gender identity ideology and, two years ago, set up a website, No Conflict They Said, to collate stories from women and girls who have been impacted by trans-related laws and policies. As a result she has been subjected to an incessant campaign of bullying and harassment by trans activists.
In April 2021, for example, a group of trans activists organised a protest at Melbourne University, calling for Dr Lawford-Smith to be sacked. Several of her supporters attended and were verbally abused and intimidated. Trans activists threw water and swore at the women assembled, screamed “Fuck off terf!” and called them c*nts. One trans-identified male shouted continually into a woman’s face with a loud hailer.
Things are no different now. Dr Lawford-Smith’s lectures on feminist philosophy are about to begin next week and the kick-back from trans activists has been so severe that the university is going to supply her with security guards. An anonymous group called Fight Transphobia UniMelb has tried to target Dr Lawford-Smith’s students and intimidate them into boycotting her lectures. They have put up posters around campus which read “Only a fascist takes feminism”, “Are you on the side of fascists?’’ and “Our demands: Transphobes and Nazis off campus”.
This week they have also vandalised university property. At around midnight on Thursday 22nd June, trans activists wearing balaclavas smashed windows and sprayed graffiti across the university’s Sidney Myer Asia Centre Building. They were caught doing so on CCTV cameras.
University vice-chancellor, Duncan Maskell, has attacked their behaviour as ‘disgraceful’ and referred the matter to police.

Huge thanks to @NotAllGays for drawing our attention to this despicable story.
Dublin Pride has used a doctored photograph on its website to crowbar trans activism into gay and lesbian political history.
The ‘Our Story’ section of the Dublin Pride website uses an image from the historic Fairview March of 1983. It was the first gay rights march in Ireland and generally considered to have been the birth of the modern Dublin Pride movement.
However, the image used has been altered to facilitate a specious historical revisionism. The original photograph shows an activist holding a sign which reads “The police aren’t on your side either”, a slogan germane to the Fairview March.
Declan Flynn was a young gay man killed in a homophobic attack by a gang of youths in Dublin’s Fairview Park in September 1982.
Despite the damning evidence against them, the five teenagers responsible for Declan Flynn’s death were effectively given suspended sentences and walked free from court. The decision not to jail his killers caused outrage among Ireland’s gay community and gave rise to the Fairview March in early 1983. Hence the slogan being held aloft in the photograph of that event.
However, the photoshopped image being used on the official Dublin Pride website has erased that pertinent sentiment and replaced it with “Trans rights are human rights”.
The Chair of Dublin Pride is Philippa Ryder, a trans-identified male. He has been in a heterosexual marriage since 1986, fathered a daughter and didn’t begin ‘transitioning’ until 2006 when he was in his 40s.
For years trans activists have tried to pervert gay and lesbian history by erroneously claiming that trans women started the Stonewall riots. Now Dublin Pride, with a straight man at its helm, is peddling faked photographs of the historic march which gave rise to the modern gay and lesbian movement in Dublin. And it is trampling all over the memory of a murdered gay man.
Sunday 25th June - Leave Them Kids Alone
THE SUNDAY TIMES: Two parents have discovered that their autistic teenage daughter is physically transitioning without their knowledge and her doing so has been facilitated by her school.
Susan and Callum (both pseudonyms) were horrified when, without warning, their teenage daughter announced that she is really a boy and wanted to be referred to by a male name.
The couple made an appointment with the head teacher of their daughter’s secondary school. They made it clear she was not to be socially transitioned and that school staff were not to refer to her with a male name or pronouns etc. They believed that their daughter, who is on the autism spectrum, should be allowed to explore her feelings through therapy before any changes should be made.
The situation escalated rapidly and the girl was soon talking about wanting a double mastectomy. Susan and Callum believe that their daughter was groomed online by trans activists. They were so alarmed by the material she was viewing and being sent, that they had to confiscate her mobile phone.
Shortly before their daughter’s sixteenth birthday, the school informed the couple that it was referring her to social services. A social worker then visited the family home and insisted that the teenager is really a boy and should be called by a male name, adding that council policy is ‘to follow the child’.
In direct contravention of her parents’ wishes, school staff had been affirming the teen’s ‘gender identity’ and referring to her with male pronouns and a male name. Furthermore, the girl had been ‘advised’ on gender issues by a local youth project which works closely with the local council and had provided training at the school.
Her father and mother then discovered that the girl had been wearing a breast binder and was even taking hormones, prescribed by a GP to whom, having turned sixteen, she had referred herself.
Callum, the girl’s father told The Times, “We believe that some of the professionals whose job it is to safeguard children may have acted in her worst interests by enabling, encouraging and facilitating life-changing medicalisation with irreversible consequences… It is not just us, it is hundreds of families across the country this is happening to. It is a consequence of blind adherence to ideology that may have started from a place of compassion but has now got out of control and, in our view, is harming children”.
“We feel we are living in a Franz Kafka novel”, he said.
See you next week.
“Be who you want to be and how you identify is up to you”
And whether or not we believe you is up to us.
I think the vomit inducing stuff is getting worse and more frequent as all the perverts come out from under their rocks.
