  • “Sweden Ditches Barbaric ‘Gender-Affirming’ Care for Kids” – The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare recently published new treatment guidelines which completely abandon recommendations that children with gender identity issues undergo so-called ‘gender-affirming care’, according to PJ Media.
  • “The NHS waiting lists hit hardest by Covid” – The NHS England backlog hit a 7.2 million in October, the highest figure since records began 15 years ago. MailOnline identifies the hospital departments with the longest waiting lists.
  • “Australia and Canada impose Covid tests on Chinese travellers” – The imposition of Covid Tests on Chinese travellers is growing around the world, according to MailOnline.
  • “‘Veganuary’ can make you depressed, experts warn” – The Mail on Sunday reports that turning vegan comes with a higher risk of broken bones, mental illness and miscarriages.
  • “Don’t let eco-zealots cancel the convenience of flying” – Zoe Strimpel in the Telegraph makes a heartfelt case for not cancelling air travel.
  • “Labour pledges to toughen ‘weakened and gutted’ online safety bill” – Shadow Culture Secretary Lucy Powell says she’s going to strengthen the Online Safety Bill if Labour win power, as reported in the Observer.
  • “I’m an expert in public health. Which is why, aged 38, I’ve qualified as a personal trainer” – Devi Sridhar has got a new quiver to her bow. Does a new career in personal fitness beckon?
  • “Police Scotland denies labelling paedophiles ‘minor-attracted people’” – Police Scotland tell MailOnline that when it referred to paedophiles as ‘minor-attracted people’ it was quoting from another report, not intentionally using a euphemism designed to downplay sexual offences involving children.
  • “The raw truth about legal crowdfunding” – Tony Dowson demonstrates pretty conclusively in the Critic that Dr. Louise Raw’s efforts to crowdfund so Jeremy Clarkson can be prosecuted for being rude about Meghan Markle are doomed to failure.
  • “It’s time to give the diversitycrats their marching orders” – Yours truly in Spiked asks whether we’ve finally reached peak woke and can expect the movement to lose momentum in 2023.

  • “Extinction Rebellion to halt disruptive protests as ‘nothing has changed’” – Extinction Rebellion has announced it will no longer be engaging in disruptive protests as they’ve made little difference, according to the Times. How could they, when the Government in Westminster is doing more or less everything XR wants?
  • “Climate-related deaths: 2020-22” – Bjørn Lomborg has posted a graph on his Facebook page showing that 98% fewer people died in 2022 than a hundred years ago from climate-related natural disasters like floods, droughts, storms, wildfires, and extreme temperatures.
  • “Durham University’s most generous benefactor has decided to donate to the Free Speech Union instead” – Watch me talking to Andrew Doyle on Free Speech Nation about how the FSU is tackling the free speech crisis in Britain’s universities.

A benefactor to Durham University has told the institution they won't be getting another penny of his money until they 'get their free speech house in order'. He is now giving his money to the Free Speech Union instead.@ToadMeister | @AndrewDoyle_com | @SpeechUnion pic.twitter.com/TbaYBazkY8
