Finally, balanced reporting - well done whoever is making this happen.
BBC article

Aaaaargh Laurel sorry!

Sharron is a goddess among women and I dare some of these pathetic little squirmalists to try and defeat her.
Respect to Daley Thompson too for speaking out.
That generation of athletes had to face down cheaters when they were competing. Same energy now.

In massive contrast to the article in the Independent which appeared in my Fb feed.

Sunlight. Hubbard competing will bring a whole lot of sunlight to the issue of women's sports. Damned hard on the female athletes who will lose out, especially to the woman who lost her place on the team , but sunlight can only help future athletes.

It’s starting to look like a change in editorial policy at the BBC. R4 had great coverage of the RA debacle this morning

About 26 minutes in, Phil Mercer's report on Hubbard's inclusion in the NZ team.

Also, Nic from Fair Play was on ay 10:30ish talking to Victoria Derbyshire. I caught the end of it, here's a snippet .

And GBNews had Emma Hilton on about 10 minutes ago. It was clear from how the male presenter phrased his questions that he gets it. He even raised, at the end of the item, if Emma worries about being 'cancelled' professionally for speaking up. She mentioned that there have been 'mischievous' complaints against her (I'd have called them downright malicious, she's a better woman than me) but that she has the backing of her institute.

Sunlight. People see, and start asking questions.
