He was Joint Chief of Staff under Theresa May:

www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/01/22/britain-becoming-sick-trans-debate-facts-can-cure/

"The legislation is part of a trend in which transgenderism and gender fluidity are normalised and made mainstream in culture. This is the kind of cultural context in which charities like Mermaids and even the NHS through its Tavistock clinic helped young people to make irreversible decisions to change their bodiess_. It is how governing bodies allow female sports to be ruined by trans athletes. It is how the BBC website joyfully writes up stories about children becoming drag queens, and cross-dressing men are invited to read to primary school pupils in schools and libraries.

It is how nobody stops to ask how many such men are moved to act in these ways through their own sexual desire. Autogynephilia, the feeling of sexual arousal some men feel as they pretend to be women, is according to some researchers behind many or even most cases of gender dysphoria among those born as men. It is legitimate to ask whether non-consenting women ought to be participants in such sexual fantasies."

My brain is singing "AGP" to the tune of "here we go, here we go..."

It was in the OPs opening post. So..... If they were going to zap it Resister had already said it from the off. So we are all equally as responsible.

Right, I can't stand the suspense. If I'm not around tomorrow...remember me!

It's been fun! Hopefully see you in the morning.

Somebody in a mainstream paper that still carries clout and is read by people who don't do the internet social media thing had to be the one to do it first. And it needed to be a man.

I'm just glad it's out there. It's a nice link for Helle to add to her collection of all there's this that says that collection when she does her no not having it posts.

So glad he went there.

I should have been more specific! This is the part I'm grateful for.

So glad he went there. He's right, stating the truth is the only way out of this mess. Perhaps some other journalists will notice the sky didn't fall down, and also be willing to point out the elephant in the room.

It's insane that there's been such a taboo on stating the obvious. I remember a few years ago wondering if even JK Rowling could get away with introducing the word "autogynephilia" to the public, and concluding there was no way in hell.

I think she could get away with it these days, but maybe she won't have to be one of the first over the top, this time.

Are archive links forbidden?

I think they sometimes get hidden out of hours literally so that MNHQ can take a look and check it's ok, because some archive links might be maliciously leading people places they'd rather not go. What some people do is post the address of the archive site and then what to look for on it, I think.

@IcakedefargeIam I'm not listening to you. Cochineal must be made from ladybirds surely. That's what mummy beetle told me growing up.

It's a startup, venoms, toxins and live marsupials.

Erm...No crushed beetles in there is there? I'm not into cannibalism.

Although, don't knock it till you tried it.

Boiledbeetlelovesbeautifullybindedbundles · 23/01/2023 01:17

No, but I have enough legal, and non legal drugs here to see off a few people, so it could be arranged.I

The cat may have had his instructions and either the punishment isn't to bad or he can't read. I've got blood dripping from my typing hand

thanks but I've got a sleep mask and a vape (no naked flames in the bedroom) and the cat on stand by to deliver the fatal claw across the jugular if needed. He's pouring in anticipation.

Oh Beetle, if you're going down
