The only way Eddie Izzard makes me laugh is that he thinks he is a woman. What a joke. To think I used to respect him for just being who he wanted to be. he is now a fully fledged part of the problem. The rest of that stuff just makes me go "ugh".

I used to love Izzard in his early days, seemed a true heir to Spike Milligan. How long ago that feels now 🙁

Same here. Obviously the things I laughed at are still funny but he has tainted everything now with his sense of entitlement.

Instead, he turned out to be the true heir to Les Dawson.

Les Dawson was bloody brilliant: hilarious and talented as hell. Izzard isn't fit to lick his boots.

That's a bit mean to dear old Les 😂

Maybe I should have said "Instead we got a Les Dawson tribute act".

Dear old Les was fine,.

Yeah that Izzard pic is deeply depressing. Can't wait for Stewart Lee to "come out".

(Good God! I felt a twinge of nostalgia for Bernard Manning there!)

I always have a chuckle, ‘a face like a ploughed field’.

Suits him perfectly!

Executive transvestite. He had his dignity then.

It keeps him in the news, that's the only reason he does it.

If he's channeling Zelensky, where's the goddamn T-shirt?!?!?!?!? And is he talking about his plans to outlaw all opposition parties and media?

That shop sign about pronouns reminded me of the badge that reads "How dare you presume I'm heterosexual!". To which I want to sport a badge that reads, "How dare you presume I give a shit!"

Did you pick up on the aggression of that sign ?

You just know there would be 2 security guards waiting to march you out for … gasp …. Misgendering 🙄

Expand full comment

And isn't it revealing how they are dragging this gender ideology into areas where it is totally irrelevant anyway. Shopping? You only go there to buy stuff. But even there you get a lecture about pronouns?

I can just imagine what happened to captive ‘non-binary’ Joan of Arc — ‘they’ were so utterly vulnerable in the hands of ‘their’ English jailers. I’m sure the prison guards didn’t view 'them' as 'non-binary'. Leave Joan alone. Hasn't she suffered enough?

Shakespeare to Globe Theatre staff: Are you insane?

Graham can you look into the shortage of HRT for women please? Is there any link to men declaring their divine right to access 'HRT' when it's not those hormones they are 'replacing' as they didn't have that hormonal balance in the first place.

If anyone can get anything online and men are screaming about access to it, and proudly stating they can get it for anyone else (like children), surely that has some effect on stocks and access?

I remember a certain cervix haver stating they had received their prescription, when this was brought up some time ago. Almost in a sneering way… quelle surprise!

Meanwhile women and GPs are being recommended to find alternatives and hunt down stocks in any pharmacies in their area.

That Kellie Jay interview was funny. She totally outmanoeuvred the so called feminist. Just by staying cool. It was an object lesson in why ranting does not work.

What ranters forget, most of us mentally or physically switch off, and get exasperated, that ranter has previous for this. I only watched it for KJK, who never disappoints ( or loses)

Does this remind you of anything?

Yes this! haha

This makes it his fourth appearance on the show, three of which have been uncredited, including The Speech and Fifty-Fifty. He was credited as "Blind Irish Sorcerer" in Men Without Women."

"The castration cult Mermaid". That cuts it.

I thought the interview with Ritchie was exceptional. In fact it could have gone on for another hour. This remarkable guy has so much to say, and I appreciated the calm approach Graham, it paid off.

Expand full comment

Same, and actually loved how relaxed and funny Ritchie was with Glinner…. Great interview and yes please do another xx

Novara Media encourage kids to avoid safeguarding and go straight to irreversible mutilation while at the same time, (like their contributor Owen Jones) they remain baffled as to why most people couldn't give a toss what else they have to say.

Following up on the tweet from Jones, I thought this was a funny one to look back on from Mermaids.

Since news of the closure I keep reading that this is exactly what they wanted all along, so jarring to see them demanding more money be thrown at the failing service last year.

"The @CareQualityComm

have released their report into

@TaviAndPort's Gender Identity services - showing inadequate response and 4500+ people still waiting. We hope the NHS will see this report as a wake up call to give GIDS more resources and give children the care they need.

Funny stuff in the Edinburgh link. A comedian Sarah something is "they/them" in a review, but "she/her" in an interview. Heads must have rolled on that one. Or eyes...

Re. Novara media’s criminal statement urging young people not to seek exploration of any pesky mental health problems that might keep them out of the ‘gender abbatoirs’ (thank you Dennis Kavanagh for this brilliant term).

I fixed it for them.

Keep things simple: you’re ‘trans’ (even though there’s no definition of ‘trans’), you’d like HRT (although this is a guileful misnomer because you’re not ‘replacing’ any hormones) and you have the necessary documents to send you down the hell hole pathway that is ‘gender care’.

I, for one, very much enjoyed Graham's interview ('ramshackle effort', ha) with Ritchie Herron, and I got the feeling, Ritchie did too. Looking forward to another one soon.

Expand full comment

Ritchie is able to explain a lot of the online genesis of the 'gender' ideology, even noticing years later when looking through his notes, that he had described the movement as a 'cult'. A very perceptive young man, he now regrets he didn't listen to his own intuition, but how could he, swept along as he was in the overwhelming force of a state-, media-, and medically-sanctioned juggernaut? Such a disaster for so many people. We're lucky to have such a brilliant and charming voice speaking out against the 'cult' that is 'gender'.

Expand full comment

Agreed, and he was so young when it first started. No wonder the earlier the better, for those influencers to mould and entice.

Did Jones ever make his documentary?

I am sure if Zelensky put on a lovely Zara dress and some lippy, Putin would be terrified and withdraw his troops from Ukraine forthwith.

Don't even know where to start as all these horrors continue to unfold !! Coupling misogyny with " transphobia " is an oxymoron. Trans ideology hates women ,hence the rush to take over women's spaces in all areas while at the same time mutilating as many of their female victims as fast as they can !! Beyond EVIL 😡😡😡
