Nottingham: Mental Health Strikes Again

Just as in Annecy, our effete leaders are playing it by the book. We’ve had the ‘shock’ (you think they’d get used to it by now?). We’ve held the candle-lit vigils, the ‘words cannot express’, and the ‘lack of any motive’. And no doubt it won’t be long before some Guardianista pipes up about the true victims – the hordes of migrant men, cowering in five-star hotels, awaiting the non-existent backlash.

Transwomen

On Yer Bike! 

The policy of allowing ‘transgender’ females and even males identifying as women to compete with women has been going on for some time now.

We have no guarantee that such technology will not remain in place after the ceremony and, of course, if a would-be terrorist is caught, or if the day passes without incident, this will undoubtedly be claimed as a success for the surveillance; I confess, I have misgivings.

Just Stop Oil

Just Stop

Just Stop Oil have not just promised to sabotage a summer’s worth of sporting events, they have taken a further step and are once again causing chaos in the streets of London; thereby prolonging the rush hour and its concomitant environmental impact. Bedecked in the latest high-vis jackets, with banners and signs blocking roads, they

Tucker Carlson

Tucker Tucked Up?

“When honest people say what’s true, calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink, and they get weaker. That’s the iron law of the universe: true things prevail.”
