Rapists will no longer be able to identify as women following the landmark transgender ruling by the Supreme Court, with police forces now expected to begin recording criminals’ biological sex rather than preferred gender in official crime statistics. The Telegraph has more.
Forces are now expected to begin recording criminals’ birth sex rather than preferred gender in official crime statistics following the ruling, which stated that trans women are not the same as biological women under equality laws.
It will end a situation where some police forces record rapists as being women, even though the legal definition of the crime requires a penis.
Campaigners, including gender critical police officers, have hailed the move as a victory for common sense and have said it will help restore public confidence in policing.
Current guidance from the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) recommends forces ask suspects if they are “male”, “female” or “intersex”.
But it goes on to state that: “Using the term ‘gender’ as a substitute for the term ‘sex’ is not appropriate as gender is not a protected characteristic.
“Gender is a social construction relating to behaviours and attributes based on labels of masculinity and femininity.”
However, not all forces follow the guidance and a recent report into the way public bodies collect data on sex and gender revealed that at least 12 police forces allowed rape suspects and other sexual offenders to self declare their preferred gender identity.
This means men arrested on suspicion of violent sexual attacks can self-identify as a woman and be recorded as such on official statistics.
The records form part of the annual data requirement (ADR), submitted by every police force in England and Wales to the Home Office. …
Police sources who have examined the Supreme Court ruling in detail believe it will sweep away the current confusion around transgender sex offenders.
David Spencer, Head of Crime and Justice at Policy Exchange, said it was time for policing to adopt a common sense approach.
He said: “This week’s judgment by the UK Supreme Court shines a light on policies across the public sector.
“An independent review this year found police forces do not consistently record the natal sex of alleged sex offenders – meaning suspected rapists may not be accurately recorded in police records.
“This could have grave consequences for whether the police are able to effectively investigate sexual offences.
“This is the sort of nonsense which leads to the public losing confidence in the police. As Policy Exchange has repeatedly made clear – it is long past time for police chiefs to adopt a common-sense approach to their work.”

A nightmare of a crossroads junction with limited visibility, not sure the wisest place to do these kinds of protests especially with all the Ascot traffic this week
I’m not saying this is anything but in light of stories we’ve read recently about pilots and heart problems it’s interesting..they don’t give any reasons for the ‘recent crashes’…..??
Navy aviation units hold safety pauseBy Commander, Naval Air Forces Public Affairs11 June 2022

The tough news keeps coming for Americans struggling with high energy prices. Not only have gas prices broken records for the past several weeks, now a good portion of the country is being told they should expect rolling blackouts, as we enter the hot summer months. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) officially released its summer report last week and almost two-thirds of the country should prepare for a possible blackout.
The report from NERC includes a harrowing map that shows most of the nation should stand ready for possible blackouts this summer.
The reason for these coming blackouts is clear: a mandated transition to clean energy. The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes:
And re the other hemisphere, the beeb world service broadcast a similar item about Australia this winter (i.e. now). Apparently, a fair bit of electricity is generated by coal and gas down under. Not clear if it’s a shortage of coal, or just out of date and poorly maintained systems.
Good morning all from sunny Northamptonshire!
Nowt to do with ATL but important none the less.
The brilliant Anna de Buisseret shared this link to n international group of Truth Warriors I’m privileged to belong to, of John O’Looney speaking in Leicester.
https://www.facebook.com/100078231423435/posts/pfbid0c6Js7Qk3EWwA14eyHKencbSVzXGPAJFcjPT4vkFzp4t93N79D2xf62mrG1crcJgYl/?d=n
Stunning response from John o. Looney. So very true.
I hope he continues with speaking out.
He is doing. He has integrity & his moral compass is true.
He’s bloody brave. They tried to kill him when he was hospitalised.
I know. He spoke to our group about two weeks after Dr Peter Chan rescued him from hospital. What he didn’t say in the video was that there were 3 other men admitted who were put onto the protocol of remdesivir. He didn’t sleep that night as he was terrified that they would inject him against his will with the drugs & listened to them desperately struggling for breath. One was wheeled off when the porters came in the morning, curtains closed so that nobody saw & the other two just disappeared.
It is beyond belief. I have huge respect for him.
God evening BB.
Latest ONS weekly death publication just out
Deaths registered weekly in England and Wales, provisional: week ending 3 June 2022
However it’s affected by the bank holidays on 2nd and 3rd June so no real insights from registration date death data
The weekly deaths by occurrence date shouldn’t have been massively affected, however ONS seem to have made an error in their estimates (see attached chart where you can see the completely implausible drop in the last week) so we will have to wait at least a week to see if all cause deaths are now falling below normal levels after the elevated period of all cause mortality coinciding with the Spring boosters.
We’ll see in the next week or two. It could be that many certificates have been ‘carried forward’ due to the short working week, which could result in a spike later on.
