Well well well Kath Viner...
This is extraordinary the Guardian is turning, slowly, but turning. Its not the Observer either people, but the G, the paper that has actively promoted lies for 6 years on this topic, done no reporting and suppressed reporters who try.
Hadley Freeman and Suzanne Moore hats off to you, OJ must be delighted ...😂https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/aug/02/boxing-olympics-lisa-nandy-imane-khelif-lin-yu-ting

So because we allowed cheating for ages, no one is allowed to put procedures in place to stop it.

Indeed. From the IBA statement
" While IBA remains committed to ensuring competitive fairness in all of our events, we express concern over the inconsistent application of eligibility criteria by other sporting organizations, including those overseeing the Olympic Games. The IOC’s differing regulations on these matters, in which IBA is not involved, raise serious questions about both competitive fairness and athletes’ safety.

For clarification on why the IOC permits athletes with competitive advantages to compete in their events, we urge interested parties to seek answers directly from the IOC.
Yours sincerely,
International Boxing Association"

I said this on another thread, but it’s intriguing me.

It’s funny how this topic has turned positions on their heads. With supporters of this person being a woman citing them being assigned female at birth, and raised as a woman, as proof of their sex.

To extrapolate from my previous post re cheating for ages and therefore not being able to put procedures in place to stop it, we should have no drugs tests at all.....

Hello EPO, testosterone, steroids etc. So the enhanced games that has been mooted recently. At least that would be honest.
