'We will not stop shouting about this until every last one of these deviants is identified' must also include anyone in a position of power who supported this evil.

I wonder how much doing this will eventually increase the number of women in prison by, serving sentences for misgendering, perhaps. An offense considerably more serious than license fee evasion, death and rape threats and actual rape.

Its the death of freedom when a radical belief system is placed above other established real human rights. Such is their distain for our freedom they elevate a sex offender above our sisters and children.

"Of this 18% of rapists and paedophiles, guess what? Half of them say they’re women, and they’re routinely moved to the women’s estate, penis and all". My, my, ain't that a coincidence? Either, criminally sexually violent men are attracted to the disturbed cult of 'gender', or they are playing the 'gender' cult for their own selfish purposes. Personally, I think both are true, but neither explanation speaks well for 'gender' ideology.

I have tweeted both parts FAO Ministry of Justice, HM Prisons Service, Minister for Prisons Dominic Raab, Scottish Prisons Service, as appropriate. This scandal is Torture: cruel and unnatural punishment. Surely E&W Prisons and Scots Prisons Service should face this? What about a referral to the UN Rapporteur on Torture?? An idea.

The UN has been captured by the gender woo so I wouldn't expect any help there.

You are right, unfortunately. I'd forgotten about Victor Madrigal-Borloz, the UN Special rapporteur on "Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity", the famous "SOGI". Captured.

But we must have our own group researching Torture in the UK, don't we? It IS so obviously Torture for women prisoners to be subjected to the new and constant fear of sexual assault from men locked up with them.

Absolutely! The world has been captured by this dangerous and pernicious ideology.

I was able to quote some of Rebekah’s speech that day to a young couple blinded by the brainwashing of GII. I actually thought I was getting somewhere with the young woman until the bloke came along.

Rebekah’s speech was powerful though and so important.

Grateful to KPSS & all Kate does. She’s representing an ignored and vulnerable group of women in society.

I think I am quite hardened to this subject, and there’s nothing here I didn’t know already, but this has brought me to tears. Today we saw the SNP, Labour, Greens REJECT an amendment to block sex offenders from self ID. It is hard to understand what has happened to people’s psyches.

They are participating in the oppression of women on a scale I couldn't have imagined 30 years ago. They would take us back to the middle ages.

The sacrifice of women on the altar of trans ideology .😢

Gosh ,what a powerful speech and so well articulated. Well done to her and keep fighting to abolish this cruel and unusual punishment of women ,while rewarding convicted rapists ,murderers etc by allowing them access to their victim pool.😭🤮💔

Superb, precise and articulate... and incomprehensible. When I first heard of this I worried that people wouldn't care because they'll reach some awful conclusion that they've got themselves in that position - I'm encouraged to see how many increasingly recognise this horrific human rights abuse of women. But my god it MUST STOP.

I can't tell you how many people have trotted out that appallingly smug 'if you can't do the time, don't do the crime' when I've tried to discuss women's prisons housing men. I suppose it makes them feel better, they think it'll never be them in there locked up with a rapist.

Most women prisoners are incarcerated because of the men in their lives. Look at almost any female offender's history and you'll find abusive men.

Are there any men in prison for non payment of TV licences?

Aside from the trans issue why are women disproportionately punished for very minor crimes that men wouldn’t be sent to prison for?

Expand full comment

Men shouldn’t be imprisoned with women regardless of what they call themselves (it’s not surprising why so many male sex offenders claim to be women - they fear going to a male prison and most likely, even if only subconsciously, see opportunities for further offence in women’s prisons).

Without wishing to undermine anything in this article, the position regarding TV licence evasion is as follows:

* You can’t be sent to prison for failure to buy one, but only for failing to pay the fine after being convicted of not having one;

* The latest available figures for England and Wales show no one was jailed for this in 2020 or 2021; and

* Women are more likely than men to be convicted of not paying the fee, but the number of men jailed since 1995 after failing to pay fines is twice the number of women.

I remember watching a District Judge in Liverpool Magistrates‘ court threaten a women with imprisonment for failure to pay the fine if she came back before him ten years or so ago and was aghast - a single mother who’s children, at vast public expense and emotional harm, would have been taken into care if she’d been sent to prison (also at vast public expense). Although I support the licence fee, I decided then that enforcement should be a civil matter.

If you can't afford a TV licence, you can't afford the fine and the TV licence, do it is being jailed for not paying the TV licence no matter how the courts decide to label it. Let's call a shovel a shovel.

If women were appropriately sentenced for the crimes they are most commonly convicted of, few would receive or be serving custodial sentences. This would make an impact on the viability of some of the 12 women's prisons in the UK. What is the motivation to imprison women for what are essentially minor offences? It's expensive to keep someone in prison, and the cost can hardly be justified by considerations for public safety. It's conceivable that some of these prisons are being kept open on the premice of women being unfairly sentenced.

If that was to change, and if women's prison populations increase due to the numbers of male prisoners claiming to identify as women, it's just as conceivable that eventually they could become as large or even larger in number than female prisoners. Continue in that vein and the entire prison population could be made up of men claiming to be women. Fine, providing they are recategorised as HM Prisons for expedient men who pretend to identify as women for the purpose of gaining access to women and/or having an easier ride in prison.

Few people realise how many women are jailed for non payment of their TV licence. I had a conversation with my dad recently and he was shocked to the point if writing to Ofcom, the BBC and the Westminster government about this. He has a list of others he is going to lobby on this subject. This is an 88 year old man who refuses to pay his TV licence because of how much Gary Lineker et al got paid throughout Covid when the government decided that older people had to pay up. He has been law abiding all his life, but decided enough was enough... More power to my Dad's elbow. Let's hope other dads decide to do the same.

I'm sure they are, I wasn't aware anyone was imprisoned for such a petty offence. But if it mainly applies to women, who cares? And who cares what the cost of imprisoning them is in relation to the crime, such as it is. Good for your father for taking a stance. It's what more of us should do.

The cost to the state is considerable. Often children have to be taken into care. Relaticves/friends being cared for need service provision. The women lose their homes if there is no-one to pay the rent and look after the house. They leave jail homeless, without an income, without their children. All for what should be a civil offence that doesn't hurt anyone. It is such a scandal that no-one seems to care about. I have known about it for far too many years having worked with homeless women, some who have lost everything for non payment of fines relating to non payment of their TV licence. Trans women (men) being jailed in male prisons, breach of their human rights. They haven't a f*****g clue. Women and their children and the other people they care for lose many more human rights as a result of this crap.

There are so many women in prison who shouldn't be there, the damage this causes to their lives and the lives of their families can be incalculable. As you say, it can and frequently means they lose their homes and their children. That all this could happen for the non payment of a fine is an appalling injustice.

This needs to be shared with every politician of all parties in all the Parliaments in the UK. That might make it real for the policy makers and those who do their dirty work.

Apparently that Dolatowski pervert is 6' 5", therefore a fucking giant!

In the top one percent of heights of men in the world.

Yeah stick him in the women's prisons, why don't you?

Poor delicate flower that he is.

Expand full comment

yes- and what's worse, Dolatowski was the perpetrator of the violence anyway- yet HE is supposed to be the victim...!? The stupid Prison Service have rewarded his violent conduct, by giving in to his demand to go in a female prison. Outrageous.

As a trans widow who's self-published a memoir, I have a vague nightmare of being arrested for "misgendering" my ex-husband, now an executive in a tech firm. I can just imagine my fate in a US east coast estate where men just like my ex, but the violent kind, are lurking. Nevertheless, in two stores today, I announced my trans widow status and my eponymous YouTube channel. (movement videos for wellbeing, support for detransitioners) Thank you, Rebekah. Can someone please start a fund for women in the UK who need help paying this television fee? This reminds of me of Dickens' Little Dorritt and the debtors prison tales.

"We steal to feed and clothe our children" -- even murder. Women rarely do kill, but when they kill, it is normally motivated by resources and children. This is very different from male murder, which is most often about hierarchies and status.

If only, but they would scream segregation and further appropriate civil rights history.

They have already done so. When a special wing was built to house trans-identified male prisoners, they threatened legal action and were put in the women's estate. Even insisted on being able to shower with women. Disgusting.

They could have a separate wing in several male prisons throughout the UK. Prison staff would be equipped to deal with their behaviours and they would be safe from the rest of the prison population. No breach of human rights there. All who declare themselves to be trans women would be housed together safe and secure. Human rights upheld.
