The repeated colossal failures of police to deal with grooming gangs makes me think hhmmm -- somethings rotten in the state of law enforcement. Deeply rotten.

1000 girls abused. It wasn’t even on the front of the newspaper I saw. Shocking

Well, I just read a disgusting article about Epstein, Maxwell, et al, and the uses made of their voluminous recordings of prominent men (politicians, businessmen, entertainers) abusing young women. Guess who they did it for! Governments! It's how they keep our politicians in line and not doing what needs doing while getting up to endless criminal mischief.

Do you want some links? The first thing you can do is look online for a three-part series by Whitney Webb, an American woman who sensibly lives in Argentina. The last article I just read was by Jeremy Kuzmarov at Covert Action Magazine. I can get you specific links if there's something you can't find. Webb's articles are interesting because she traces Epstein's roots from Roy Cohn, who produced blackmail material for the government during the days when homosexuality was the chosen subject of blackmail.

Yes, to comprehend the veracity of the sources you have to READ them. This is not pablum, this is international reportage. Did anyone in Europe wonder why Merkel -- who certainly wasn't engaged in any of this Lolita Express crap -- backed down after being deeply angered at finding that her emails had been surveilled?

You need to look at the sources; both, I believe, are heavily sourced. Roy Cohn's activities are no secret even in the States.

Re the video exchange of the US Senate hearing on abortion rights: Wish it had been another legislator & not Trump-supporting Sen. Josh Hawley — but he did a great job in drawing out the insanity of gender ideology for all the world to see, in his exchange with the semi-articulate academic from UC Berkeley.

The professor testifying before the Sen. committee kept using the phrase “People with the capacity for pregnancy,” and when the Senator asked her, “you mean, women?,” she retorted, “don’t you believe men can get pregnant?” No, he said, men can’t get pregnant. Upon which the professor exclaimed, “You're denying that trans people exist!”

Or words to that effect. The gaping holes in her logic … and in a hearing on abortion rights, ffs. Not to worry for her, though; she came tightly wrapped in her protective West Coast ‘inclusive’ trans worldview. Mainstream outlets (of course) framed it as a win for the professor — but Democratic honchos and mega donors were prob wincing, with good reason.

UC Berkeley represents the interests of the U.S. ruling class. The faculty includes the man who wrote the paper justifying torture during the Bush II administration. The idiot you quote was just doing her job pushing a ruling-class agenda. (She's probably so dumb she doesn't even know what she was doing!)

Definitely not Penny Mordaunt for PM. She speaks sense on some issues but her recent about-turn on the whole trans thing can’t be trusted. Badenoch for me.

I don’t like the way she keeps mentioning male anatomy- if men did that about women’s bits there’d be complaints. I want Badenoch as well

Re. Twitter Hates Women. Woke up today to find myself permanently cancelled. So here's the offending tweet. Nothing in it is not true:

"Eunuch as gender identity, castration cults, nullification surgeries, sissy hypno porn, child drag, drag in toddler’s Story Hours, lactating men inflicting themselves on babies. All under the paraphilic “trans” umbrella. A cascade of grotesqueries. The media is hiding all of this."

Bastards. Will have to get back to my novel now. Thank god for Glinner's Substack -- it'll keep me informed and allow me to vent once in a while.

Not to toot my own horn (toot, toot), but I had gained a lot of followers over just a few months of tweeting. And several of them had real traction. Was reported several times, time-outs several times, but now this is permanent. How dare they?

Twitter is like a disgusting, rough old pub but one that doesn't have to stick to an over18's policy, so kids can walk into it and are fair game for any old arsehole to get them drunk and influence them. It's uncensored when it comes to groomers, incels and porn addicts, yet censored when it comes to rationality, feminism and child protection.

I don't know how much Musk could have improved it but by the sounds of it he would at least have booted out the misogynists and creeps in charge of moderation.

Re: Ireland, look at the olympia theatre panto poster. A panto 'dame' has morphed into a drag queen. Drag queen story time, in other words.

The thing about the man in Dublin Airport ladies loos is that he's actually not doing anything wrong, or least according to where Ireland is now. They have sex self ID so if he identifies as a woman - that's it, all is hunky dory. That's a woman in the ladies so what's the problem?

What do you think yourself?

Expand full comment

Oh I think it's odious behaviour by that man and all like him. But the Irish government have made it acceptable. One of their ministers admitted recently that they hadn't thought through possible consequences self ID and aren't keeping track of anything. So, yet again, women & girls will suffer in silence.
