Arise, Go Forth and Conquer. In Praise of Sophia Duleep Singh. Part 2.
Update 578. New Zealand Special. #BeMorePorcupine.
Here is Part 2, dear readers, and a bit more of the forgotten story of Duleep Singh.
These excerpts are taken from a website called Release Peace and a series called Women Who Changed The World. This article is by Isabella Ritchie.
On February 6th, 1911, UK Prime Minister Asquith arrived for Prince George’s speech in the State Opening of Parliament. Blended in among thousands of onlookers, Duleep was able to get to the front of the crowd unnoticed. Exposing a poster saying ‘Votes for women,’ Duleep slammed her body against the Prime Minister’s car in front of thousands of people. She was arrested, all the while screaming suffragette slogans. Although she was released without charge, Duleep’s actions were a great embarrassment to the state — the Queen’s goddaughter, a suffragette deviant, was arrested on the day of the prince’s speech in Parliament.
…
In 1928, Duleep’s dream became a reality when women over 21 were finally given the same voting rights as men in the UK.
…
Although her dedication to the Suffragette movement was Duleep’s main vocation, her social position allowed her philanthropy to extend across other areas of justice. She campaigned for Indian independence and according to the podcast Empire even went to great lengths to volunteer as a nurse aiding wounded Indian soldiers in the First World War who were fighting on behalf of the British at Brighton Pavilion. Duleep was a woman who committed her life to helping others despite the immense personal cost that it posed to her. Although her story is commonly forgotten in Suffragette history, what she helped achieve for women should never be overlooked.
Duleep died in her sleep on 22 August 1948.
The European Union’s Secretive Funding of Trans Ideology
Here is a major reason why we need the For Women Scotland judgment!!!!
Ashley Frawley, a researcher at the University of Kent looks at this secretive funding:
New Zealand - The Midwifery Council
Since the early days of this substack I have been covering the battle between Mana Wāhine Kōrero and the NZ Midwifery Council over the latter’s long running attempt to introduce a new Scope Of Practice that NZ midwives would have to abide by and which intends to remove or downgrade the word ‘woman’ and introduce the concept of ' ‘gender identity’. This is an even bigger issue since the Scope of Practice is, effectively, secondary legislation. The Council are now carrying out a survey of the latest version of the Scope.
Di Landy, Katrina Biggs, Deb Hayes and Sarah Henderson celebrate the recent Australian judgment, Re Devin ( I reported on this here: https://dustymasterson.substack.com/p/the-fiction-of-gender-dysphoria) and the Supreme Court judgment and then move on to the contents of the latest Scope and how to go about completing the survey.
They also mention that on 06 May they are holding a day in remembrance of Magdalen Berns (see my recent update that featured Magdalen https://dustymasterson.substack.com/p/my-bonnie-lies-over-the-ocean) since that was Magdalen’s birthday. It will be ‘Thank A Terf Day’ and they are encouraging Terfs to do videos thanking a Terf that they know or admire.
Our friend Katrina Biggs provides more information on this on her substack:
New Zealand - The Waves of the Supreme Court judgment!
Thanks to Yvonne van Dongen for drawing this to my attention:
Jamie Ensor in the NZ Herald ( New Zealand First proposes legislation to define ‘woman’, ‘man’ in law 22 April) reports:
New Zealand First wants to clarify the definition of a woman and a man in law, introducing a Member’s Bill to ensure “our country moves away from the woke ideology that has crept in over the last few years”.
The move follows the UK Supreme Court ruling that the term “women” as referred to in the British Equality Act refers only to biological women. It’s also the latest in a series of legislative proposals from NZ First in its so-called “war on woke”.
The party wants to see “women” defined in law as an “adult human biological female” and “man” defined as an “adult human biological male”.
“The purpose of this amendment is to uphold legal certainty, protect the integrity of sex-based rights and ensure that language in law reflects biological reality,” an explanatory note within the legislation says.
“This definition will apply in all contexts where the terms ‘woman’ and ‘man’ are used, unless explicitly stated otherwise in specific legislation.”
New Zealand First currently serves in a coalition government with both National and ACT New Zealand as part of the Sixth National Government, having won 6.08% of the total party vote in the 2023 New Zealand general election.

The States - Doctor Gets $1.6 million compensation
Josh Code reports on The Free Press( not that free because it’s behind a paywall 😃):
EXCLUSIVE: Doctor Fired for Trans Surgery Comments Receives $1.6 Million Settlement
Allan Josephson faced career destruction after criticizing gender-affirming care for minors. Years later, he sees a cultural tide turning—and legal vindication at last.
Apr 21, 2025
Child psychiatrist Allan Josephson will receive a $1.6 million settlement this week from the University of Louisville, which fired him in 2019 for criticizing the rush to use hormone therapy and gender reassignment surgery to treat gender dysphoria in children.

In countless cases, it’s not the parents who are rejecting the children who claim they are ‘trans’. It’s the children—often encouraged by online communities and ideologically captured professionals—who are rejecting their families. Loving, concerned parents are being cut out of their children’s lives simply for asking questions, for hesitating, or for refusing to green light irreversible medical interventions.
Glinner talks to Tina Traster who is working on a documentary on the subject and whose article about this issue was taken down by Psychology Today after it had been up for just three hours!!
Glinner also wants to hear from parents who have had this happen to them.
