Sunak telling Robin White that biological sex is important live on GB news

I can only comment on the schools in my Trust and the schools my friends work in and no, I don’t think they are “pushing” anything of the sort.

Setting aside the issue of the defendant's sex for the moment, discussing their "other horrible activities" is likely to be contempt of court unless they were raised as evidence in the case. That'd definitely be enough to get those posts deleted.

Do you think that schools aren’t pushing gender identity ideology?

They say they’re an “educational charity” they are not.

Educational yes, as in educating the public; specific to education, no.

That’s made clear from its charitable purpose statement.

THE PURPOSES OF THE CHARITY ARE: 3.1 THE NON-PARTISAN ADVANCEMENT OF EDUCATION OF THE PUBLIC IN THE ECONOMIC SOCIAL AND POLITICAL SCIENCES AND THEIR EFFECT ON PUBLIC POLICY AND THE POLICY-MAKING PROCESS IN THE UK AND THE PROMOTION AND PUBLICATION OF OBJECTIVE RESEARCH; 3.2 THE PURSUIT OF SUCH OTHER PURPOSES WHICH ARE EXCLUSIVELY CHARITABLE WITHIN THE LAWS OF ENGLAND AND WALES AS THE DIRECTORS OF THE CHARITY (HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS "THE TRUSTEES") SHALL DETERMINE

Thing is, I don’t know what was on the thread. There were 8 posts when I last looked, and then 30 on the deleted thread.

Am also following the case, and interestingly the press live blog was suddenly closed after lunch without explanation while they heard further forensic evidence. It may simply be that the court reporter was suddenly called away, of course.

Are you able to recommend any publications without a political agenda? I'd be interested to take a look. Combattingthemoaners?

So because they have produced reports saying girls should be involved in sport they are a reputable source? I don’t trust any publications with a political agenda including anything from the left. They say they’re an “educational charity” they are not.

Gender ideology is in schools, sadly

Can't think of another think tank that would have produced these.

The Policy Exchange is a right wing think tank masquerading as an impartial source.

😬 I’ve had a few of the goadier posters try their best

I’ve been good lately, no deletions (that I’ve noticed anyway)

One gets irritated enough when there’s a mob going for it 😂

@Boiledbeetle It's a thankless task being a mod I'm sure, but some are more moddy than others. Some decisions you do indeed just have to shrug off and move on after a wee froth.😁

I had a thread deleted recently. I was wondering about the actual sex of someone currently on trial for a murder in England. Other horrible activities associated with the supposed ‘female’ defendent as well. The accused is being reported as an ‘woman’. I think it may be a man.

Thing is, I don’t know what was on the thread. There were 8 posts when I last looked, and then 30 on the deleted thread. Mumsnet said such speculation wasn’t in the spirit of mumsnet. However, I would hope outright disinformation and lies (if the supposed ‘woman’ is in reality a man) aren’t either.

A while back I actually complained about another posters posts, not something I do often. It wasn't a person I recognise at the mnhq end who ended up letting the bad comment stand and deleted some of mine for not being in the spirit!

I may have sulked for a few minutes!

I've just been deleted on another thread for mentioning someone was on a reporting spree!

@EasternStandard A bit of an odd one really, as the same day I was deleted for being rude when challenging a racist remark made on another board.
My query as to my second deletion, whilst the racist remark was allowed to stand, resulted in a stern email re being naughty for a second time in a day and referred to my parrot remark made earlier.
The other week it was the claim that I had a sock account (untrue).
Obvs I am a very annoying person.

Yes, people do believe (rightly so) that schools are pushing this.

Loads of examples on this board and reports like this demonstrate https://policyexchange.org.uk/publication/asleep-at-the-wheel/

Any emails?

This talk of emails v none has me wondering if people get many

I got deleted for comparing a prolific poster to a parrot.
I refreshed myself with the rulz as recommended and joined the RSPB in atonement.

Meh
That will teach me for trying to be vaguely balanced 😂

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words. I had a non-routine (and thankfully clear ) squeeze just before COVID, so I know what I'm in for. For those reminding about prostate's, yes we all face indignities growing older and I'm shocked that my prescriptions, now I'm nearly fifty (thanks @Boiledbeetle) fill an entire shopping bag.

To get us back on track. What an enjoyable clip that was. A real turnaround that when asked about trans rights, women's rights are brought up.

Maybe @SinnerBoy just needs to identify as a naughty girl?

I never comment on any woman's sartorial choices. That restriction doesn't apply to people who aren't women.

I'm not MNHQ. You'd have to ask them.

Sometimes they get on my tits and I disagree with them but for the most part they generally seem to get It okay. For what is an impossible job, I'm ok with that.

If you don't know why you've been deleted you can report one of your other posts on the thread and ask why the other one was deleted. I've done this lots of times, because sometimes I've had a post deleted and I can't even remember what was in it, and sometimes I think the post shouldn't have been deleted. On at least one occasion they reinstated a post because when they looked at it again after I asked, they decided it was OK.

If they haven't emailed you it means you haven't done anything too bad so you don't get a strike.

*never get one
