We’re publishing a review of Mark Woolhouse’s book The Year the World Went Mad: A Scientific Memoir by Guy de la Bédoyère today, a long-standing contributor to the Daily Sceptic. The book is gratifying for lockdown sceptics because it makes all the points we were making two years ago but is written by a member of the SAGE modelling team. Some will say, ‘Why didn’t you make all these points at the time?’, but to be fair to Woolhouse he has been a vocal critic of Government policy since early on. In August 2020 he called lockdown a “monumental mistake” that must not happen again. Here is an extract from Guy’s review:
Woolhouse is committed to the idea that COVID-19 is a potentially dangerous and deadly disease, and I do not dispute that. It has patently been so for huge numbers of people, even if it has been far less severe for many more. But we knew from the outset that the dangers were far from equally distributed throughout the population. Woolhouse sets this against the harms caused by lockdown, first of all as I have outlined through the “fall-off in health care provision throughout the UK”, followed by education and the impact on the economy which itself is bound to impact on the NHS. Instead, of finding a balance, says Woolhouse, many scientific advisors were “all too willing to dismiss those indirect harms” with a fixation on the belief that their sole responsibility was the minimise “the harm done by novel coronavirus and nothing more”.
In my view he could have gone further and described that for what it was: irresponsibility on a scandalous scale, a kind of true engrained crassness that it is difficult to believe could carry so much weight and force. And these are the people we permit to direct our lives?
A personal experience of the stupidity we have had to deal with came for me almost a year ago. Keen to learn and understand more, I had some correspondence with some of the nation’s most prominent scientists. One, who shall remain nameless, appeared on the World at One and I questioned why he had adopted the line he had. His reply (April 2021) included this memorable sentence: “I had a lot I might have said in addition to what [the presenter] guided me to say – I’m sure your experience as a broadcaster will tell you that you are part of a narrative and your role is to fit in with the show (to a greater or lesser extent).”
I was staggered by the naivety that scientist exhibited about declaring it is his responsibility to go along with a journalist’s narrative and what that could, and did, lead to. Having worked for the BBC for almost 20 years I was already rattled by the appalling lack of objectivity and inquiry some of its hacks (with some notable exceptions) exhibited during the pandemic. But to discover a scientist of his status could be so foolish as to believe it was his duty to “fit in” with a show’s agenda was a new one even for me.
Worth reading in full.

Identifying as neither male, female nor genderless.
What the hell does it identify as, then? A brick?
I’m offended by your obvious lapidaphobia
Fear of Lapidary? An irrational fear of people who cut and engrave gems?
And stones generally.
I just don’t like midget gems.
Midgets? What? You monster
Ha: how many midgets does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
{Two, but they have to be REALLY small to fit.}
I’m outraged by your skill with humour
I thought one would have to stand on the head of the other, to reach?
What happens if the one on the bottom is male and the one standing on his head is female – would that be called sex?
Is dwarf throwing still an Olympic sport? and are Russians still banned?
Is that male or female ones?
I’m aghast at your comment.
Egad Sir!

It’s a sub class of couldn’tcarelessrois
Bricks are very sexual. There are so many ways to bond with them.

Are they still used to castrate camels?
Is Camel a gender?
No …just a preference.
Takes “all sorts”, to make up this world!!
No, a vice president.
Biden would make a great Camel
No a 1970s progressive rock band from Guildford.
They’re still going but with only one original member.
What the drummer?
What bricks?
Especially when thrown!!
Presumably, neither male, female nor genderless, ie, that’s supposed to refer to a person who identifies as this, not to a person who identifies as something specific that’s neither male nor female nor genderless. This obviously doesn’t make any sense when assuming that words have defined meanings and are going to be employed to communicate some content. But as this is basically just pick the string of words you presently like best to describe yourself, that’s not a concern.
What do you say, when you are out, chatting up the opposite sex and trying to find a sexual mate – “what are you?”, to which, if not Covid vaccinated, you now have to now add, are you human, or trans human (an alien species with zero rights on planet Earth):
The Hydrogel patent US8415325B2 is listed in the Moderna patent, here. Hydrogels are also mentioned in a second Moderna patent, here. Hydrogel is listed in the Johnson & Johnson patent, here. Hydrogels are made from Graphene Oxide. Nobody can deny the evidence that Graphene Oxide is in the shots.
GMO HUMANS
All the Covid-19 “vaccine” patents mention gene deletion. All the patents except one, mention “complimentary DNA” (cDNA). cDNA is a chimeric mRNA cocktail that’s being coded into Human cells using artificial genetic sequences in cross-species genomics.
According to the US Supreme Court ruling in 2013, altering Humans with cDNA makes them patent eligible. The court documents show that cDNA is made using modified bacterium and Supreme Court judges ruled it patent eligible. This means that a plant, animal or Human, could be patented and owned if first genetically modified with cDNA.
Mark Steele summarized it perfectly by stating:
In the US, the Supreme Court has ruled that vaccinated people worldwide are products, patented goods, according to US law, no longer human. Through a modified DNA or RNA vaccination, the mRNA vaccination, the person ceases to be human and becomes the OWNER of the holder of the modified GEN vaccination patent, because they have their own genome and are no longer “human” (without natural people), but “trans-human”, so a category that does not exist in Human Rights. The quality of a natural person and all related rights are lost. This applies worldwide and patents are subject to US law.
Since 2013, all people vaccinated with GM-modified mRNAs are legally trans-human and legally identified as trans-human and do not enjoy any human or other rights of a state, and this applies worldwide, because GEN-POINT technology patents are under US jurisdiction and law, where they were registered.”

Matching partners is getting really complicated, don’t you think, especially if the girl of your dreams, (as a male) when undressed, in bed, having sex, comes with bigger equipment down there, than you do – like whatever happens next!!
Me Tarzan – you Jane!!
Very special, is how such people see themselves. It is monumentally narcissistic.
Another great output from the Chinese funded alphabet studies.
Always interesting watching people play with fire
Norfolk Police can go **** themselves (If that is still possible in this new world order)
Given the kaleidoscope of genders, in some cases it would be literally possible.
Isn’t self-penetration a new “Gender Preference Option?
That must be the origin of the expression:
“He’s full of himself”
Wonderful – but how does that go with “She is full of herself”?
Dildo?
Have to be a contortionist – from some of the pix I have seen on porn sites, that is entirely possible!!
By the sounds of it – YES!!
Better not bend over in front of any of them, you never know what sort of an unintended welcome, you might get!!
That’s a cool diagram. So identity is in your mind, sex is in your genitals, attraction is in your heart, and expression is in your armpits.
Is ‘expression’ a bit like BO?
Not with underarm on!!
What a bloody waste of taxpayers’ money and time. How about doing the jobs you are paid to do Norfolk Constabulary ?
This is what they are paid to do. When you’ve spent a fortune to buy the key people in government to pursue an agenda to destroy the cultures with the longest traditions of liberty and freedom, you’d be wise to make use of your investment from time to time.
Erosion of basic precepts that hold a society together keep us distracted. Parents now have to monitor their own children so have even less time for the Big Ticket items destroying our society.
Or did you think the police were there to maintain law and order? What an old fashioned idea. One must move with the times, friend
The English trend, that is – I don’t live in England any more, not since 1971 (when I was 24) – weird and queer are generally English and American trends now, OK, we have them here, but not so “Obvious”.
It seems that wasting Taxpayers money to the the point of total financial Collapse is a key Conservative Government policy ( in so far as a ‘Government’ (?) run by the UN the WHO and the WEF is allowed to have a ‘policy’.
No wonder Johnson has looked so care-free since the Ukraine war stared All he has to do is read out his brief.
Digital Financial Reset anyone?
Scrap the LGBTQYKMCGDI+ and just go with -H. Simple and future proof.
We used to call them sexual deviants. The focus then was (correctly) on the limits of government. If you want to deviate within the confines of your own home, and it involves other consenting adults, go ahead.
That worked because it satisfied the deviants and the social conservatives. Everyone walked away with something positive. The kind of reasonable balance characteristic of a civilized society.
But PROMOTION of deviancy is a different matter. The backlash will be epic.
Indeed. The leftist opposition to nature isn’t about inclusion, it’s about promotion. A huge and extremely damaging difference.
Forced endorsement is where it’s at. Indifference is not enough. You must acknowledge homosexuality is normal, for instance.
What fascinates me about all this is the rest of the world has a fundamentally different view. The Chinese view homosexuality as largely a psychosexual disorder, a miswiring in puberty. Other parts of the world take an even bleaker view of course.
The woke seem unaware the west is an outlier just in terms of decency about it all. Even conservatives here can live with it, live and let live etc. But they seem intent on pushing so hard they will lose it all. I see a backlash coming and all we will need to do is think like 90% of the world and it is gone.
Acknowledging something as normal does not equal promotion. If you called it superior/inferior – now that would be promotion/intolerance. Which coincidentally is what you are doing when calling homosexuals perverts or deviants.
But it isn’t normal, it’s disordered.
Disorders are normal, too. They occur normally, as in, nobody artificially has to produce them. And disordered people certainly are not someone to hate or discriminate against… if anything they deserve your empathy.
normal: conforming to a standard; usual, typical
disordered: in a state of confusion
You need to get a dictionary.
As for hating people who are sexually disordered – I don’t, but I don’t empathise with them either because I don’t share their feelings of abnormal sexual attraction. ‘Empathy’ is just a buzzword for hypocrites like yourself.
That’s like saying you don’t empathize with disabled people because you don’t share their abnormal disability. Maybe it is you who should be checking “empathy” in the dictionary.
And if 10% of people have a particular “disorder” or “confusion”, you could even go as far as saying that it is normal, usual, typical. Not that it matters – because what is “normal” is not necessarily positive. For example, world peace is abnormal, but you would not necessarily use this as a reason to argue for war.
Pure sophistry on your part rayc, and you make the assumption that I am not disabled in any way. In fact the idea that you have of yourself, that you are able to understand and share and feelings of someone suffering from something you have never experienced is pretty arrogant.
No, I did not make an assumption that you aren’t disabled, why would I have?
The ability to understand someone else’s feelings despite not being that person is not “arrogant” (which seems to be a concept expounded by some woke fanatics – funny that you picked this one up straight from the “enemy”).
This ability is in fact the precise definition of empathy. Some people lack it. You might just be one of them without realizing.
I’ve all ready said I don’t have empathy for the LGBT etc. so how can I not realize it?
So you have met the girl/guy of your dreams and you are sitting down together getting to know each other better – what do you do, put a hand up and check out their equipment down there first, so make sure you are not getting a false bill of sale?
We used to call them perverts.
For good reason. Homosexuality was understood in psychiatry as “inversion”. An inversion of normal development during puberty. Normal development was perverted.
We used to call you idiot. No, wait, we still do.
Weren’t you preaching tolerance in your previous post?
Ah, but there is no need for tolerance for intolerant people. These may receive back all the intolerance that they produce. That applies regardless of their gender and political orientation, mind you.
“Ah, but there is no need for tolerance for intolerant people.”
Yes, I’m intolerant against intolerant pricks. Now what?
So you admit you’re intolerant of people who are intolerant, but you just can’t grasp the fact that you are gazing into a mirror.
No dear, I am not the one advocating that discussion of various kinds of sexual orientation should be forbidden in school. I am not “offended” by you insulting me either, very much for free speech, you see – unlike our dear host TY, when it comes to certain topics.
I’d rather you didn’t call me ‘dear’ and I know that you’ll respect my wishes.
Yes, just like you will respect homosexual people’s wish not to be called deviants and pervs.
Are you speaking on your own behalf or for a friend?
No Dear
There was a World War One German warship called Beowulf – any relation?
The trouble with ‘gays’ is that they are always trying to push their agenda down your throat.
I don’t recall any time when a gay have pushed anything down my throat, but of course YMMV.
Have to hope that is all they are trying to push down your throat – that is called a throat job isn’t it?
No, in my youth, “we” used to hang them – up to about the early 1970’s, as I recall
‘Deviation’ as in deviation from the ‘norm’ – ‘norms’ which have been only loosely enforced since the ‘permissive’ sixties – so in fact people have had great freedom of choice in their sexual preferences and identity .
Now we have a Deviant Gender Fascism actually being imposed by our own Government which seems to be trying to collapse all previous norms and in their absence enforce “deviance” on the whole population – or encourage them in the direction at the earliest age – “bizarre” doesn’t get close.
Good to know that he PM, with his own record of claiming his “norm” rights over many of the women he has met, is totally on board with Gender identity programmes being forced on young children by their teachers, encouraging them to confuse their sexual identity at the earliest possible age.
We can only imagine the level of self-esteem, self-confidence, happiness and psychological stability and sense of purpose that this will generate as they grow up (dark irony intended)
Collapsing a society’s norms and core values is an important part of creating the deliberate ‘chaos’ necessary to impose unimaginable technological tyranny ‘in the public interest’ – all part of the ‘Great Reset’ programme .
Give ridiculous powers to fringe minorities and they will abuse them seek to impose their minority obsessions on the majority denying them the ‘freedoms’ they themselves exploited and eventually collapse a society for you! ( see also Zero Carbon crazed, ignorant fanatics).
So it all continues. God help our children.
Which freedoms are homosexuals denying to you? The freedom to discriminate against them?
Has tree gone off duty then rayc?
It looks that way. Perhaps he’s been posted to the Ukraine for some R and R.
Wtf are you talking about?
Seems you’re in denial rayc.
Denial of what?
Just admit it and stop playing for time.
The possibility that ‘rayc’ is a sock puppet for ‘tree’ or ‘concrete68′.
I shouldn’t worry, you just have to stay true to your own opinions and keep on battling forwards.
I’m marked down as the ’77th’ – apparently it’s an army unit that ‘infiltrates’ forums like this. It’s not always easy to spot the line between humour and total lunacy.
If you’re in any doubt, Mr Fox, about the existence of the 77th Brigade:
https://www.army.mod.uk/who-we-are/formations-divisions-brigades/6th-united-kingdom-division/77-brigade/
I did look them up once. Yes, perhaps they exist. But it’s also a handy way to dismiss other posters by claiming they’re of the ’77th’.
I was once told by someone who had served in the British Army “All you get in the Army is ignorance.” I still remember that, and I expect it’s based on a large dollop of truth.
I am not associated with ‘the 77th’ … but, then, of course, that’s what someone associated with the 77th would say, isn’t it??!!
“Perhaps”?
Please stop engaging with the trolls. They only appear in order to spoil threads.
I’m Beowulf, it’s what I do. You must have read that wonderful poem about me, you know, where I slay the trolls Grendel and his mum?
Apparently the possibility of other people having opinions opposing your own does not exist in your world and has to be explained away by some sort of conspiracy. Have you ever wondered where this sort of paranoia came from?
It’s not your opinions it’s your style.
My thoughts exactly – do you think that if you include fingal they are all the same person?
They all talk a load of cr@p
Excellent post.
That’s a belter DB.
I wonder how the Chinese Government deals with them?
Jericho Green an American ytuber calls them the Alphabet Soup Group.
There are 26 letters in the alphabet – why not use them all in case some have been missed and to cover anything new? We could just call them ‘alphabet people’.
The perhaps the 90-odd % of the rest of us who are sick and tired of this nonsense could just get on with normal life.
If they took out all the superfluous words they would only be left with ‘****ed up’
Anyone who’s worked in the uk public sector In the last five years will have seen the diagram. Norfolk police didn’t design it, they likely got it from stonewall or some other similar organisation.
I’m sure the group Erasure will be thrilled that their name has been hijacked and applies to one of the more negative categories.
Also, isn’t categorising people in this way part of the fundamental problem they say they want to resolve?
The woke brigade don’t get hung up on inconvenient facts or logical culdesacs. That’s for the pedants.
Obviously the countermove is to add several dozen other designations. I identify as an attack helicopter is a popular one.
We beat this by using their logic not ours. If they can invent genders so can we. About 500 should do the trick.
Didn’t Geronimo identify as an attack helicopter?
No.
Geronimo identified as a parachute.
No I’m sure he identified as an Apache.
Groan
Last year, my 11-year old nephew got into trouble in school for loudly self-identifying as an attack helicopter in response to one of his classmates identifying herself as ‘gender neutral’.
By the same logic the vaccinated are “normal” and you have a “mental disorder” for not accepting the vax. Maybe you should be “cured” of it by force? Beware what you recommend….
What a silly thing to say rayc/tree.
What is so silly about that, that is the exact mode of thinking of intolerant people. The minority is “abnormal” and should get a “special treatment” because of their “abnormality”. You see (or rather, don’t see), this treatment only “works” when you are on the majority side.
Being a Christian I’m in the minority in the UK. What ‘special treatment’ do you think I should receive? Do you think if I pray for someone with a disordered sexuality I should be prosecuted even if that person asks me to pray for them?
You seem to be getting the point, albeit slowly. Yes, because as a Christian you are in the minority, you should not be discriminated against, just like the majority should not discriminate against those of a different (minority) sexual orientation, and just like the vaxxed majority should not discriminate against those who decided not to take the injection.
Where you get the idea that I wish to persecute you, I don’t understand – because I just claimed the exact opposite and brought some convincing examples what persecution of minorities (always!) leads to.
What you seem to be arguing is that because you are in minority yourself, it’s ok for you to discriminate against other minorities? Those who “want” you to pray for them? I’m confused…
You are confused. I asked you a simple question (since we are chatting about tolerance), which related to the Government’s Conversion Therapy (Prohibition) Bill (you must be aware of it). That’s all. I never suggested that you were for the Bill, I was simply asking what your position was. I’m sure this Bill will mirror the legislation in Australia where it is a criminal offence to pray for someone struggling with same sex attraction, even if they want you to.
Next time you refer to something, you better mention that thing. I’ve never heard of the Australian legislation you were talking about, but it appears to be the Australian Religious Discrimination Bills 2021. I checked – the word “pray” does not occur in any of them.
So it appears you are arguing from some fake news distributed by the exaggerating political opponents of these bills.
Not that Australia is renowned for freedom of any kind, as we’ve clearly seen during the pandemic. Quite the opposite.
In summary, you are spinning fantasies of religious oppression while ignoring the real oppression of sexually different people. Real, not purported, laws against such people exist in many countries today. In fact the existence – and enforcement – of such laws is the very reason why the movement started in the first place. So if you are worried about discrimination/persecution for your beliefs, you should be on their side, not against them.
It seems there’s a lot you haven’t heard of rayc, I guess I wrongly assumed you were better informed. Perhaps you should talk to Martyn Iles sometime about the Aussie legislation.
The dude who seems to be one of those religious fanatics who mislead people about the actual content of laws in order to create fake outrage as demonstrated by your comments? Why should I talk to him? In the same vein, maybe you should talk to Richard Dawkins.
He’s a lawyer. I’ll talk to Dawkins any time any place anywhere. Perhaps we could arrange a debate at the Oxford Union, he might turn up this time after wimping out of debating Bill Craig.
Yes, I thought it was a valid point.
You think chucking bricks at Matt Hancock is a valid response.
Yes, I do. It’s the only language ‘they’ understand.
So you agree with the left that language is violence?
On a serious note this is about tyranny
‘We’ have invented a new reality in which men can give birth to babies. These are the words ‘you’ must now use. If you do not use the words we have given you then we will exclude you from society and we will eventually eradicate you
This is pure evil.
The agenda is about power, compliance and control
We have been asleep on the job and let this evil rise
It is not evil, it is irrational. The irrational rarely flourish and require considerable support to survive. At the moment, for various reasons, they get that support.
The backlash will be interesting to watch. The Norfolk chief constable won’t survive that.
Yes, men can get pregnant and give birth, unless of course they have an abortion. Andrew Lawrence explains how here:

Tapped: Anyone partaking in gender identity agenda nonsense
Tapped-out: Everyone who’s had enough already.
…..
Looks like the crappest episode of Mr. Men.
“They who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” – Voltaire
So glad we took our kids out of school. They will have plenty of problems in their lives, but feeling that they need to figure out where they are in the ridiculous, horrific seven dimensional game of gender identity sliding scales should not be one of them.
I think a lot of this BS stems from the hysteria surrounding AIDS/HIV. People I went to school with were seriously affected by the “don’t have sex or you’ll die” mantra.
Won’t you have Ofsted or some such authority popping round to see you kids are getting a proper education?
Do you fell qualified to teach them English language, French/German/Spanish/Italian, Geography, History, Religious claptrap, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Maths, Woodwork, Metalwork, Cooking, Sewing, Music, etc.?
Religious claptrap? I don’t think that’s on any state syllabus. As for the rest, I wasn’t taught cooking, sewing, music, French, Spanish or Italian. Better get Ofsted to look into BFES schools pronto.
Hey
Everyone, I work in a 11 to 19 school and the ‘they’ pronoun is preferred by some students, is embedded now because it is requested/encouraged to be used from the majority of staff. It is another minefield to negotiate by such as me; if we have not had enough of these!!!!! I think we are storing up enormous identity crisis for these young people in their future. There are a few members of staff who cautiously share our views, mostly covertly in a stationary cupboards ha ha , in fear of the woke mob but truly it is tricky when again one is in the minority. So I avoid the pronoun and say there name for example “Boris has gone to reception” rather than the “they”. But shock horror if “ he” slips from my mouth the students check my language instantly, reeling around in me and remind me to say “they”. It is so difficult because I don’t agree with it!! Of course I don’t, I usually deflect and say ‘boris’ I think it is unkind to call someone literally an ‘IT’ and untrue biologically!
very worryingly if you notice the gingerbread is targeting the young, I guess this had been designed for youth brainwashing from the identity obsessed woke PC culture. It is getting worse not better! Our schools are TEACHING this as fact!! I know I see it and hear it.
I am off for a country walk now to calm down have a good Sunday . !
Hopefully you don’t teach English
Oh goodness, I sympathise, Maria! Its brainwashing, plain and simple. I think most are participating in and enabling this horror unwittingly, but it is hard not to see this as a depopulation strategy. It’s one of the many reasons we took our kids out of school.
Good luck, stay sane!
* It’s brainwashing
Effin splellingcurrect
It’s PSI-B having another laugh at how stupid the British are.
You’ve gone all racist now Mr Fox.
I think we’ve seen ample evidence over the past 2 years at just how stupid the British are.
What all of them?
About 80%. Just count the face masks.
Thank you
the children are all lovely and they think they are helping me when they explain.
I know when I sometimes have the opportunity to explain the biology in a calm kind evidenced way, this may come to understand it in their future.
The classroom atmosphere is a supportive private one which helps with these tricky subjects and for the youngsters to foster their own abilities to investigate this subject with the scientific biological context. No voices are ever silenced, discussion is good. Free speech is good….
Get out of that school. As soon as possible, even if you have to take a pay cut.
Ideally, get out of that whole sector. I did….
It is all schools now, I have friends in other schools.
The children are well versed and are knowledgeable about all the woke language from you tube content and have pride using it. In health ed classes 11 year olds put up there hands and talk about “what sex you are assigned at birth” I tried to explain that sex is NOT assigned because it is natural. When I also said that if your birth sex is girl or boy that is your gender , the students and some staff wanted to discuss this as debatable .
I cannot have the same open discussion in classes where the “theys “ are because these youngsters get easily upset and escalated over this subject and there class friends feel it too. It is like walking not on egg shells but glass .
I explained that the percentage of humans born where there was indistinguishable sex organs was a very very tiny percentage but these facts are causing levels of confusion and anxiety that could be seen. The youngsters believe that these preferred pronouns are kind and true.
I have a good professional rapport with the students but they think it is my older age that makes me wrong.
Tbh, it sounds like wearing the wrong clothes or wrong haircut back in my time. And you are the pathetic tyrant who is trying to dictate which clothes/hairstyle are allowed.
This is what kids do, they rebel. And the way how they rebel and what they rebel against is well, implanted in their little brains by mass media.
So, you call Annie an idiot and mariawarmth a pathetic tyrant and chide me for lacking ’empathy’. You really are confused, rayc.
I think you lack the mental capability of recognizing hyperbole in my comments.
Yes that’ll be it. You don’t really think Annie is an idiot or that mariawarmth is a tyrant or that I lack empathy (though I do). And I presume you don’t think I lack the mental ability to recognise that your exaggerated speech isn’t made to be taken literally? Well I’m convinced.
You see, when give it a moment of thought we can come to an agreement after all.
Is that how you understood my reply? What was it you said about a lack of mental capacity or something?
Hey Rayc
These youngsters are lovely they are not rebelling with this, I know them you don’t.
Their Clothes and haircuts are ways to express themselves which is great, a very different thing to one’s innate right to the biology that your born with, a joyous fixed reality not a haircut at all.
Your emotional language says how you feel about me, or you could have just asked me nicely, do I dictate like a tyrant , disallow discussion and be an old bag? Thankfully the answer would have reassured you that I am non of what you thought.
Hopefully this will help as I can see you have been rebelling today on here ha ha.
.. free speech though is best, keep it up, open discussion is the only way.
The first school where I live was built over 100 years ago and has 2 doors, 1 for boys and the other for girls. Should the school be knocked down to remove the offending signs which are in stone and part of the buildings structure or should a third door be installed with a list of “other” genders?
Maria, please please don’t partake in this by saying the child’s name instead of ‘he’ or ‘she’. If you partake, you are implicitly encouraging. If it is natural to you to say ‘he’ or ‘she’, as it would be for 99% of the population, including those in your school who are ‘going along with it’, please say ‘he’ or ‘she’. If the students say anything (I’m sure they love the opportunity to ‘tick off’ the teacher, just ignore. You’re not going to get fired for it. I’m a home tutor and I do realise that it’s a lot easier for me, but if ever a student ‘corrects’ me for saying ‘he’ or ‘she’, that will be the last time they do that.
Never mind, ‘they’ will grow out of it (eventually).
That would be “Boris have gone to reception”, you inconsiderate old bag.
Why do schools now refer to pupils as students? This is the UK, not the USA. Here, in the UK, students are people that attend Higher Education institutions. Children at school are pupils.
Sorry Not sure ! It has been used for years now. I like pupils but use the term youngsters in a more relaxed discussion or our young people/children . I think students is Used in a lot of documentation now too.
Yes. I wrote to my son’s headmaster to complain about that and many other things. Our language is slowly being lost.
Perhaps we should compile a list to help the police understand who they get paid to apprehend. Here’s a few for starters:
Demicrimminal – someone who breaks the law occasionally.
Panburglar – someone who’ll break into anyone’s house.
Polythief – someone who’ll steal anything.
Polythiefnonscrewed – someone who’ll steal anything so long as it’s not screwed down.
Thanks for this, Beowulf!
Ha ha. These are great. Important to label them accurately.
Politician – someone who is paid to steal everything you own.
Do you mean ‘Polytician’ ?
? Someone who is paid by you to steal everything you own?
Are you sure that doesn’t refer to someone with a predilection for stealing kitchen utensils?
Pay attention to the childish imagery. That’s because the LGBT perverts’ indirect target is children. Always rainbows, unicorns and cartoons.
That’s because many of the lifestyles are learned behaviour. A rewiring during puberty which sexualizes things outside normal healthy sexual targets, like the opposite sex.
Once you’ve sexualized an object, a thing or a concept, that mental pathway now exists. We used to call them paraphilias, fetishes. And as a result understood the darker side of their effects, the way a misuse of sexual drive would damage the individual, the fetishist himself. Now we force the notion it is normal, they are legitimately different etc.
But we forget the other 90% of the world does not think like this at all.
Oh yeah, the “danger” that they may grow up and fuck a tree and cause themselves some abrasions. But wait, there was even one murderer who also liked to fuck trees. I think we can rest the case there, Dr. Child Psychologist.
How is tree?
I don’t know, I don’t suffer from dendrophilia. You tell me?…
You sound like you do.
Norfolk, itself, is a gender identity.
F*** off and catch some criminals for a change. Burglars and thieves (not people who visit their own elderly parents or who express doubleplus ungood thoughts on Facebook) and undercover cops who lie to women and make them pregnant.
We can pray for a Russian landing at Kings Lynn, it’s the only hope we have
Say what you like about Putin, but he’s no fan of the trans, gay ranbow brigade and has made it abundantly clear it has no place in a civilized society.
A Russian is more likely to protect your child from “Hormone Blockers” as being “evil against nature child abuse”!
I’m so pretty!
You may be, but he’s not.
Well this just proves how apolitical the police are doesn’t it?
Not counting the last two years of blatant thuggery they have displayed against legitimate protest, as opposed to the hands off, knee bending, and baby sitting service offered to others which are clearly promoting “the right ideology”
I know several serving and retired police, the few still in service can’t wait to get out, and many of the retired ones quit for just this reason.
What ‘Police’? If you want to remember the ‘Police’ watch “Heartbeat “and weep – those were the days ( admittedly sentimentalised) when we actually had a Police Force and both a ‘country’ and ‘society’.
Blair also did for the Police and the Courts along his destructive campaign of ‘societal demolition’ dictated by his Globalist Masters.
As a Rebus fan, I hope Ian Rankin is taking this nonsense on board for a roof-level attack.
‘Pansexual:
Attracted to all genders and/or not concerned about gender when attracted to someone.’
I object.
In reality (yes I know, but indulge me a moment) ‘pansexual’ has two other definitions, as follows:
‘A person inordinately attracted to cookware.’
or
‘One who pens withering reviews of the night before on the morning after.’
Careful, even kitchenware must be policed
When I were a lad, it was called sex mad.
So the cozzers are once again openly displaying their confusion/mental illness. These are the people charged with protecting citizens and upholding the law, which by definition requires they have a firm grasp of reality. Unhitching ‘gender’ from sexuality, dismantling the binary framework, inserting a bunch of made-up, non-categorical terms, and calling this ‘good’ is not only utterly deluded but it is destructive to society and those suffering from this illness.
Once again, the institutuon entrusted with upholding the law needs to be absutely gutted and built up again from scratch. It is rotten to the core.
Sod rebuilding, I think the sane need to run away.
There’s no way the Egyptians of today built the Pyramids.
It’s Fight Club. Did you watch that film?
Dilution. Rarely discussed. The Greeks today are also not the Greeks of Periclean Athens.
Our chancellor and our health secretary are not British yet no one discusses the effect of this.
Once again, the Police force frantically seizing on something in a desperate attempt to be liked.
It’s not worked so far and they have had numerous attempts at it.
It is their Woke, PC wimpish Leaders – brainwashed and chosen for their wokist ‘diversity’ ( in fact they are all mental clones) after years of Critical Theory Marxist Sociology indoctrination in their worthless ‘Degrees’ ( sic)
Agree.
The job of coppers is to conform to the law and their oath by reporting offenders, not understanding them.
what absolute complete nonsense.
Gender is what ever the birth gender is. perceived gender is whatever these people want to identify as.
problem solved.
The assumption being that the parrot self identifies as ‘him’.
I’m so glad to have been a ‘Life on Mars’ Copper.
In the real world are there still only 2 genders?
What is this “real world” you speak of?
He’s white noise
Talking of white noise, has anyone seen Carrie lately.
No, thank God.
New screensaver…
yep, even rayc can’t hijack XX and XY.
Clearly they employ thousands of people with not very much to do with a very large taxpayer funded budget. After all, the behaviour of the government and their enforcers over the last two year have reduced the rule of law to a joke.
When we promote people who cannot produce anything, we promote those who only know how to consume.
That consumption includes our laws, customs and conventions, all of which are just useful prebuilt things they can use to get their own way.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is using the CoE as a kind of elaborate set of objects to “spend” so he can elevate himself among his peers. Just one example. That’s how they think. All that stuff is valuable only in the sense of it being spendable.
Welby is interfering way above his paygrade.
It really should be as simple as this: people can identify themselves as one of these if they like, but other people, including teachers and police officers, have a right to identify them as men or women if they choose.
And we shouldn’t be spending taxpayers money pandering to their mental state/ fashion choices.
Who? Teachers and police officers?
So what has any of this distorted gender reality got to do with the Police?
Why don’t they concentrate of dealing with the 80% ( and rising) of unsolved crimes and criminals wandering free?
Perhaps a debate on What are the Police for with a blank sheet of paper to fill in would be helpful
Cicero said that the closer an Empire is to total collapse the more stupid dangerous and illogical the law ( and by implication the behaviour) becomes.
UK now fully on track for the cliff edge!
Russia is looking a very attractive place to live. 14% income tax inclusive of healthcare. That’s about the extent of government intervention in their lives. Want to build a house? Go ahead, the only requirement is that you ensure essential services to the site, which the government pays for.
Freedom of expression welcome, just don’t go acting like Extinction Rebellion or you’ll get dragged off the street by the police and locked up until court. Same as we used to do with suspected criminals in the UK.
Want to go binge drinking? Feel free. If you’re not locked up for fighting or vomiting in the streets you’ll probably be found frozen solid somewhere the next day after passing out.
Drive around in stolen cars? Expect to get shot at by the police.
Disrespect the police? Expect to be disrespected back with a baton.
Freedom of opportunities? The guy who developed the alternative Twitter platform Telegram was a Russian tech billionaire/former student. Many Russian oligarch’s began life rather modestly. The third wealthiest man in Russia began work as a miner, before being promoted to a welder.
And whilst the USA exports war across the globe via twenty Aircraft carriers, Russia has one aircraft carrier. Russia has far more ground resources than America does, principally to defend it’s borders, not to maraud across the world picking fights.
Presumably why Trump and Putin got on so well. Trump was withdrawing troops from overseas and threatened to dump NATO. Strange Putin didn’t invade Ukraine under Trump.
You might almost imagine Biden put his big boy pants on and began threatening Putin with putting NATO troops into Ukraine.
I never knew the Monty Python team were such illumined prophets. They clearly saw what was coming…
Any room left in Bedlam?
I would write to my MP, but she’s the Foreign Secretary. My family could try writing to their MP, but he’s a disgraced former Health Secretary. Some people have all the luck…
How long do you think it will be before he gets a knighthood?
When he gets a job…
Is there any category of “normal” that the Norfolk police are capable of recognising?
Certainly more than the twelve they can count on the fingers of both hands.
How long does a person have to claim their chosen status or is an completely dynamic situation?
What I am really getting at is can a person change their assignment after having already said what it was to a cop? That would really confuse them.
I think they can change hourly, like the weather.
What if you were a constable but claimed you identified as a Chief Detective Inspector?
I still find it amusing that Cressida Dick’s partner is a Helen Ball.
Too complicated, and the English language has it covered anyway
She

ze Germans are having awful problems degendering…..
Der, die, das anyone…..
and as for the poor Spanish, if group nouns are plural they’re all male.
I don’t think you’re understanding this very well.
The Great Reset only applies to the English speaking world.
They’ll iron out the silly details like other languages and cultures another day.
Xi, Putin, Kim Jong-un and every Columbian drug lord can’t wait to follow Schwab’s instructions.
Remember, the same people who tell you that there are 37 genders, and that men can give birth, are the same people who are telling you that the warp speed developed injections are ‘safe and effective’.
Dodgy journos at the Sun issue a list of 37 sexual proclivities/tendencies amongst Westminster MPs:
Members of the public invited to provide evidence matching MPs to these 37 groups……
Oh no, some woke org produced a PDF and the police saved it in a shared folder. Surely billions of taxpayer money were wasted… Slow news day? No, just a “normal” news day for conservative nutcakes.
careful with that mis-gendering there rayc
Live by the sword an’ all that.
Where did you find misgendering? Did you want me to call the PDF “them”?
poor ickle sealion
Shared folder?
Can anyone tell me why socialists refuse to learn to read?
Imagine what Jack Regan would say!
I think I might be a grey asexual because I’m old and past it. Also, despite being overweight, I identify as a thin person. This instantly gets rid of any guilt I feel at having second helpings.
When I was 7 or 8 I was a real tomboy – not really a term you hear now, is it? These days I expect if a pre teen girl displayed a liking for climbing trees, carrying a Swiss army knife and building dens in the woods her parents or teachers would be wondering when it would be appropriate to feed her testosterone and surgically attach a penis.
If they have to lock up a neutrois in a cell, would that be in the men’s or women’s prison? Just sayin …

Insanity.
Norfolk Police clearly confused about sexuality. Lets turn to the Midwifery school at Edinburgh Napier University for clarification…
Oh Wait…
Never mind <facepalm>
“Specially constructed”? Will this construction be assigned at birth or do you have to go on an NHS waiting list?
‘New’ TV series started here in Finland – ‘Redemption’ with DI Colette Cunningham of Liverpool.
Guess what? The Chinky detective who works at the Garda station in Dublin straight off announces she’s a lesbian. Like we wanted to know.
TV series ‘Annika’ – another Police detective, main character Nicola Walker… whose teenage daughter is… a lesbian… attracted to… a Chinese lesbian.
I’ve often wondered whether alternate realities exist. Are we about to be divided up, each
pervertpersonage to his/her own appropriate reality, or is this just more bol*ocks metered out by the government that we have to comes to terms with?It’s all so one-sided, I don’t care if someone prefers to identify as a teapot and informs me of this and also of their preferred terms of address – I require the same ‘rights’ to point out that I see no acceptable evidence of their teapotism and so politely decline to defer to their delusions.
i’m sure the police have better things to do, like, I don’t know, murders, stabbings, robberies etc etc, you know, those sort of proper crimes
No longer crimes I’m afraid.
OK. April Fool. Oh! It’s May.
As one of the biscuit people I strongly object to the hate crime being perpetrated here. I am a strong, proud, and fresh Ginger bread man, I am perfectly iced and have been a favourite with Men, Women and children across the world for hundreds of years, now I find my name is being abused, and my image splashed across materials to question my sexuality and my rights as a savoury sweet biscuit, This is a hate crime perpetrated by the Police against all creature shaped biscuit people, for years we have been dunked, our arms and legs snapped off our crumbs shed across floors and laps throughout the world, and yet we have survived and continued to give enjoyment to mankind, now we find our integrity and good name besmirched by the “law keepers”of society, who will protect our rights?.
We demand a Gingerbread lives matter movement march on all anti Gingerbread establishments today,
I’m a Ginger Nut, and wholeheartedly agree with you.
Meanwhile, met police officer who had sex while participating on Nigeria Big Brother keeps her job.
The police, like everything else in the UK since the great reset started, is crumbling from the inside out.
A white male police officer doing something similar would have been sacked by the time he returned home.
Troll Alert
What’s a woman with a penis?
Wasn’t she called Lorena Bobbitt?
Jacinda Ardern?
Michelle Obama.
No, sorry, that’s a man with a penis.
The progression from “we should all be politically correct” to “do what your fucking told” went smoothly, didn’t it?
Do they include a designation for people who are sexually attracted to themselves, i.e. wankers?
What a waste of taxpayer’s money. I guess it’s too much to ask that the police start identifying and arresting criminals and stop this utter twaddle.
Meanwhile, the reality of policing in Norfolk will be dealing with the consequences of Normal for Norfolk.
What a load of absolute bollox. Haven’t they anything better to do like catching criminals?
And here is me thinking the Police are supposed to prevent real crimes and arrest people guilty of real crimes like murder gbh theft etc etc.
what a load of unmentionable. What a waste of money. What are Norfolk ‘s rates for solving crime? How much was spent on this load of idiotic rubbish?
Question: A gender Sexual person commits a crime and is caught and punished in a male or female prison, there only being two prison types for the courts to choose from.
If a female, who calls herself a male, but looks like a female and otherwise is a female, is not female but male, which prison do you put him/her in, a male one or a female one – and how would they behave in whichever prison you put them in.
By the same token, a male who thinks themselves female, but has “the equipment” only of a male, but above the waist looks female, which prison do you put them in?
I find the whole topic “very funny” – I know why male Gay’s like men to f*ck, they love anal sex over normal sex, well, as it happens, so do I but with females – they have to be female with tits up front – nothing better than having them stand in front of a full length mirror, while I stand behind and well, you know and look them in the eyes (over their shoulder – with some front view) at that final moment of that extreme exquisite pleasure, when all of my Christmases come at once – theirs too, if massaged down there, but at the same time.
Difference between “normal” sex and “anal” sex for a guy – “normal” is like thrusting into a bottomless pit, with no sides (it is all in the mind for a guy) – anal – every inch is massaged, lubricated the whole length and pleasure from “top to bottom”, nothing like it in this world, for sure – just saying!!
Science position at Canadian university reserved for women, transgenders, non-binaries and “two-spirit persons”
05/02/2022 / By Ethan Huff
https://citizens.news/613557.html
The University of Waterloo in Canada is looking for someone to fill a science position that opened up at the school. But only women, transgenders, non-binaries and “two-spirit persons” are allowed to apply.
The university’s Faculty of Environment posted an announcement seeking applications for a PhD-level school in “geography, earth, and/or environmental science and sustainability, planning or a related discipline” who has “evidence of an active research program with emphasis on climate and/or climate change science, water science and sustainability, or future cities.”
Such a candidate could be anyone, including a white male who is highly qualified. But unless that white male self-identifies as a “woman” and wears makeup and a wig, he will not even be considered for the position because he is the wrong demographic and gender.
In case you are unfamiliar with what a “two-spirit person” is, LGBTQ Health in Canada describes it as someone who “identifies as having both a masculine and a feminine spirit.”
The term was apparently invented back in 1990 by Myra Laramee at the Third Annual Inter-Tribal Native American, First Nations, Gay and Lesbian American conference. (Related: An LGBTQ medical school student in North Carolina was recently caught intentionally harming a patient who “misgendered” her.)
“Two-spirit” can also include someone with “same-sex attraction and a wide variety of gender variance, including people who might be described in Western culture as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual, transgender, gender queer, cross-dressers or who have multiple gender identities.”
Ontario’s Human Rights Code allows for this type of sexist and racist discrimination
Amazingly, the University of Waterloo’s highly discriminatory requirements for the science position are fully legal under Section 14 of the Ontario Human Rights Code, which exists to “relieve hardship or economic disadvantage, help disadvantaged people or groups to achieve, or try to achieve, equal opportunity or help eliminate discrimination.”
It is unclear if there are any requirements beyond “self-identify” that an applicant would need to show in order to qualify. Many people these days self-identify as what they need to in order to attend school or get a job since white people, and especially white males, are discriminated against in virtually every sector of Western life.
Apparently more than one-third of all white students now claim minority status when applying for college. About half of these claim Native American status, which is an easy one.
It turns out that about 77 percent of all students who lie about their race are accepted by the schools to which they apply.
One of the most famous examples of a white person falsely claiming Native American status is Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who was roasted by former President Donald Trump for lying about being an Indian in order to advance in school and reach her current career status.
Various Native American groups have denounced Warren for lying about her ethnic heritage, and for “using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation,” calling it “inappropriate and wrong.”
“Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage,” one of the groups said.
Canada apparently has the same problem within its schools as faculty members have been caught lying about their indigenous identifications in order to get a job, or keep a job.
“When it comes to sexual identity, there is generally no authentication or confirmation required for applicants,” wrote Jonathan Turley on his website.
In the comment section, someone wrote that it is high past time to boycott all institutions of “higher learning” that are doing things like this.
