My position is that gender dysphoria is a real, painful condition and that for some adults, the only way they may feel able to resolve that inner conflict is transition. If that’s the road they choose I wish them long life and happiness and I would vigorously oppose any discrimination against them when it comes to employment, housing or voting rights.
I do not believe children have the capacity to consent to treatments that may leave them infertile and, in some cases, anorgasmic. Multiple studies have shown that gender dysphoria in childhood and adolescence is not uncommon, for gay kids particularly, but it also occurs in, for example, straight girls who hate the idea of becoming women and sometimes, tragically, in children who’ve been abused. The available evidence shows that in the majority of cases, gender dysphoria resolves after the person has gone through adolescence. I am strongly opposed to the experimental treatment of blocking puberty in dysphoric children. I believe trans activists have behaved hugely unethically and irresponsibly in pretending that there is good evidence that these treatments are beneficial (there isn’t), that puberty blockers are completely reversible (there is a mounting body of evidence to suggest they aren’t) or that children are likely to kill themselves if denied blockers (there is no evidence to support this and suicide prevention charities warn against making such statements, due to the very real danger of suicide contagion.)
Of course, not all trans-identified people are dysphoric. Erotic transvestism, also known as autogynephilia, (getting a sexual thrill out of dressing as/pretending to be a woman) has been around for a very long time. I believe lesbians are entitled to exclude straight, cross-dressing men from their dating pools without being accused of bigotry and worse (same goes for gay men with trans-identified women). It’s profoundly homophobic to attack gay people for being same-sex attracted.
I don’t believe anyone, adult or child, is ‘born in the wrong body.’ That is an unfalsifiable, quasi-religious belief. A person may *feel* as if they’re in the wrong body, but humans cannot literally change sex. However they identify, men don’t belong in the single-sex spaces for which women fought so hard.

I was a gay and lesbian rights activist in 1970 and I’m a gay and lesbian rights activist now. I don’t want anyone dead. I don’t even know any gender-critical people who want anyone dead. It’s all nonsense, hyperbole.
Sexual orientation is based on sex, not “gender identity.” That is what our rights are based on. Stop whipping up fear and panic just because trans-identifying people are expected to keep to the law like everyone else.
You sound ridiculous.

If trans women "just want a place to pee", then a third, neutral space will be more than adequate. If they reject that, then we will know they want something other than "a place to pee".

Why did you make so few arrests at the Nakba hate march, @metpoliceuk? Shouldn't every single person chanting for Tommy Robinson to be shot dead have been arrested on the spot for incitement to violence?

If you’re wondering what is going on in the UK right now, the state is having a complete meltdown about the working-classes of this country daring to mobilise on the streets.
Until now, the political class and the state have been absolutely fine with people protesting.
Islamist sympathisers? Fine.
Antisemites? Fine.
Pro-Iran stooges? Fine.
BLM revolutionaries who protest while breaking Covid laws? Fine.
The prime minister will even ‘Take the Knee’ to show he is with you.
If you’re a ‘former’ Islamist and ally of al-Qaeda he’ll even invite you into Number 10 Downing Street for a cup of tea.
And if you’re an antisemite who calls for violence against white people and the West, such as Alaa Abd El-Fattah? He’ll welcome you with open arms.
But if you happen to belong to the decent majority of hardworking, tax-paying and patriotic Brits whose ancestors actually built this country then you must be treated very differently.
You are considered a threat.
You are considered dangerous.
You are considered divisive.
You are considered evil.
The very same state that has pushed people to the very edge - by refusing to fix the borders, by flooding the country with 200,000 illegals, by unleashing mass sexual assaults, by entrenching two-tier justice - now demands that the people who have to live with this do not say anything about it at all.
And if they do protest, then they must feel the full force of the law in a way that others do not.
The majority must be policed while minorities are protected.
Facial Recognition technology.
Revised CPS guidance.
Countless more police.
Warnings from politicians.
The only silver lining is that now, today, everybody can see it.
Everybody can see what is happening. It’s out in the open.
The bias is unavoidable.
And everybody has had enough.
Keir Starmer and the British state clearly hate many of their fellow citizens.
They clearly do not view people who happen to hold different views as legitimate.
But by treating them in this way they are only ensuring that the numbers of those who do choose to protest tomorrow spiral to levels they can no longer contain, silence, ignore, or dismiss.

It’s hilarious you think a person has to deserve to be called “gay” - by agreeing with your positions. But that’s not what gay means. It simply means his sexual orientation is towards other men. Gays and lesbians have all sorts of views. We are not a hive mind.

Explain to me how mass immigration is a 'left wing' concept.
I can't fathom how people swallowed this idea wholesale.
- Endless supply of cheap labour helps capitalists, not workers
- Strip mining of talent from developing countries is a form of neocolonialism
- Endless pressure on the housing market inflates assets and prevents the poorest from having reasonably priced homes
- A refusal to train enough people here removes vocation paths that the working class used to follow
- The most negative social and cultural second order consequences are happening to working class, deindustrialised or neglected areas
So it's left wing how?
I can see how anti-immigrant sentiment can be seen as ethnonationalism and therefore right wing.
But I can't see how support for mass immigration is left wing.
And to be clear: it's not just a part of left wing thought. It's now so central to left wing thought, apparently, that any divergence from this immediately makes you 'far right'.

What the f*** does Palestine have to do with fixing the potholes on my road? Or removing the junkies from my local park? Absolutely nothing yet here we are using it as an election tactic. I'm so sick of politicians caring about everything except the UK. Fuck off to gaza and get elected there.

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me.
Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true.
Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response.
I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth.
The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts.
I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse.
So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.

It's not 2020 any more, my friend. Lies, slurs and calling reasonable discussion 'hateful rhetoric' is a major reason public support for genderism has tanked. Never have a bunch of activists been so oblivious to the harm they've done to their own cause.

My view on this gender debate is quite simple.
If a grown man wants to dress up as a woman, and pretend that he’s a woman? Fine. I certainly don’t approve, and I will not call him a woman, but that’s his decision. It’s a free country. On the strict condition that others are not negatively affected by his actions - eg, if he decides that he wants to compete in women’s sport or intrude in women-only spaces? The answer is a firm NO. No men in women’s sports or spaces. Not complicated.
When it comes to children? Absolutely not. Pushing this ideology on young boys and girls is sick and twisted.
It should be illegal. To suggest that a young boy has been born in the wrong body, and should receive life-altering surgery to ‘resolve’ that? It’s abuse. It’s disgusting.
I don’t want those vile flags flown anywhere in the public sector - anywhere. DEFINITELY NOT in schools, toddler play areas, hospitals or wherever else.
For the NHS to be conducting trials where children as young as ten are given puberty blockers? It will creep and creep and creep back again. No. The answer is no. It is an unethical experiment.
Anybody in a position of authority forcing this ideology on a young boy and girl, potentially leading to permanent physical changes? They should be prosecuted.
Leave children alone.

I was recently privy to a conversation between a ‘trans-identified’ teenager who has spent years ‘transitioning’ and a pregnant woman.
Without batting an eyelid, the teenager asked: “Are you having a boy or a girl?”.
Deep down, everyone knows that sex is binary and immutable.

I've signed. This is an unethical experiment on children who can't give meaningful consent.

The world is healing! But this manufactured trend isn’t like Pokémon… countless children were permanently mutilated under the guise of progressive wokeism. The doctors, teachers & “psychologists” who pushed children & parents into this insanity need to be held accountable NOW!

Keira’s laugh says it all. Trans extremism has peaked and no one is afraid of it any more.
