Thank you (and your wife) for standing with women, Dusty. Troons and TRAs are incredibly unstable and volatile. Our safety is an absolute lottery when we’re anywhere near them. It beggars belief that those who don’t go along with troon beliefs are the unwelcome ones. I’m glad you and your wife got home physically unharmed.

When our scientists have found a way of replacing his Y chromosomes with X we can then consider if he can change sex. Until then you're stuck with it buddy, whatever your "feelings" tell you. He's doctor, so surely he was taught these basic facts when training?

Yes indeed, Iris. You can change your name to 'Beth' but you can't change your chromosomes.😄

Every part of your body is either male or female. No such thing as a female brain in a male body.

And then there's those large and small gametes 😁

No such thing as magical laydee feels to quote Mr Menno.

Why wouldn't you want them in your 🚺🚽s (after lifetimes spent messing up 🚹🚽s), in your prisons, change rooms & sports teams with your daughters? Trans women are women because they & self-identifying feminist Emma Watson says so.

Unfortunately, I’m barely surprised at the complete indifference demonstrated by the captured police ‘service’ or the intimidation & nasty behaviour of troons; it’s what we’ve come to expect. Shout out to the brave women who spoke up & to the men who supported them. Huge thanks to KJK for organising the #LWS at Nottingham & the courage she showed in going ahead with it, despite the utter disregard for women’s safety from the police & the menace from the TRAs. And thanks to you & your wife, Dusty, for being there & for this report on the proceedings. Glad you’re all safe. #BeMorePorcupine. #EndGenderAffirmingCare #AdultHumanFemale #LetWomenSpeak #ByeByeStonewall #GenderEnder #NeverSurrender

Thanks, Liz.

I think next time they should show whichever police force it is the footage from yesterday!!!

There is an interesting video from some guy who calls himself Notts Live who went amongst the TRAs when they were at speakers' corner and very quickly they became very aggressive towards him. I will feature it in the next update. They are a seriously unhinged bunch of people!!

Omg! I can’t believe that this is still happening after all these years. And that the police allow it. Glad you’re all safe and yes, what an absolute hero KJK is. It’s a disgrace that she’s ostracised by so many so called gender critical women. She’s done more than most to spread the word.

Hi TT.

Totally agree re KJK. There was one funny incident outside the police station which I don't know if you noticed if you have watched the livestream. KJK said 'that man was with the TRAs' and one of the women said 'that's my husband'😂

In terms of events I have been at where there have been baying TRAs, I have been to three others where they have surrounded us but there were at least sufficient police between them and us ( though the police turned up very late in B'ham). In Dublin the Gards did a great job and kept them behind a really solid barrier some 100 yards from us. This was appalling though. My wife went to Bristol LWS and says that was bad but again there were sufficient police present.

And of course the Nottingham police were told what would happen...and it happened.

I was queer kid who was bullied for being femme before I knew what sex was & then watched as beloveds died during AIDS era, but what Glinner calls War on Women is whole new depth of weirdness that makes me grateful I'm in my 7th decade & that you & others continue the fight without me.

Excellent point.

I was at the Dublin LWS last year and the Dublin Gards had the baying and bawling louts behind a solid barrier 100 yards away from us. And we could hear the speeches and have a good event.

Great photos! 2 Youtubers were streaming it - News Now Yorkshire and Street Hawk. But when LWS went into that narrow space between the cop shop and the building site, they gave up!

It's great to see the youtubers there, they reach a different audience, and often capture incidents which are useful for the police afterwards.

Your comment about "200" Troons - yes, even in big cities they are having a hard time scraping their troops together. At Hyde Park, in our biggest city, they have completely given up for the last 2 years.

I can guarantee you that many of those 200 were not from Nottingham, there would be a large Bristol Anarchist/student contingent, bussed in for the day.

They are nowhere near as numerous as they pretend, and the generation of kids in school now are over this nonsense.

We are seeing the dying spasms of the "trans-ideology" corpse!

Hi Radical

Yes great that major You Tubers were there. The more people see this the more peaking will happen!

However I must say that initially it looked like it was going to be Albert Park 2.0.

As an eighty year old gay man who did his part rallying, marching, and speaking to church and other gatherings in behalf of gay equality, I've come to see the agenda of the AGP fetishists as one best summed up in the slogan "Trans Away the Gay". That their campaign is having even more adverse effects on women makes it even more dangerous and to far more people. The brilliant indeed diabolical move of the fetishists was somehow to make their issues a matter of "social justice" and to attach it as a parasite on the movement for gay equality. I guess that's how so many gays and lesbians and feminists were suckered into supporting the gender woo, accepting the nonsense out of "Progressive" tribal loyalty. (The millionaire fetishists have been pretty successful in corrupting what were once strong advocacy groups for equality, too.)

What has come to worry me is the real possibility that Trump's actions against the trans nonsense will galvanize the fetishists and the numbnuts who support them. The Left in the U.S. long ago gave up rational fact-based argument in favor of demonizing anyone who disagreed with their thread bare nostrums. The "Fox News Fallacy"* is now the rhetorical trope of choice, to appeal to tribal instinct, and Trump's position feeds right into that sort of thinking. Sadly, the Democrats were already doubling down on the position in their messaging bill, the Equality Act, to substitute "gender identification" for biological sexin law and policy. When post election polling showed that it was Trump's closing ad campaign of "Harris is for they/them" that gave Trump his victory margin, the Democratic leaders all stuck their fingers in their ears and chanted as loud as they could, "la la la la I can't hear you!". Now, Trump's Executive Order seems to be piling more wood on the fire, with the New York AG threatening"sex discrimination" legal action against hospitals that suspend sex change treatments to comply with the EO to secure continued flow of federal funds.

Albeit from a right of center perspective, I have been a Never Trumper ever since the ride down the gilded escalator to the adoring crowd of out of work actors and models. It pains me to think he's gotten one thing right. He is, of course, doing his usual shtick of going out of his way to make his action as cruel and barbaric as possible, but that's the source of his enduring appeal to his core support.

Thanks, John.

You're spot on that the T and the Q hijacked gay rights. Here in the UK Stonewall got worried about losing all their millions so decided to invent the alphabet soup and, as you say, in reality trans away the gay. There was a dark joke at the Tavistock that soon there will be no gay people left.

Trump's EOs have galvanised us here on Terf Island and I hope they might slightly back off our Woo Woo Labour Government.

BTW I have gathered all the EOs under one heading for ease of reference:

I have filled a complaint form. Here is what I wrote ----CUSTOMER COPY COM-9260-25-3100-00CUSTOMER COPYPage 2/4Have you told us about this before?

No

Do any of these describe what happened? Please select the option that most closely matches your

complaint.

General level of service

Please tell us what happened eg what was said or done, who was involved, if there was any damage or

injury. (You have approximately 2,500 characters.)

I am shocked at the behaviour allowed by Nottingham Police to happen to obstruct a legal meeting

held today outside Nottingham Council House. You knew in advance that hoodlums would turn up

to disrupt this meeting and yet you did nothing to prevent it happening. Captain Athelstan Popkess

when Chief Constable would never have allowed this to happen. I was born in Nottingham. My great

grandfather was a sergeant in the Nottingham Constabulary. Sergeant Bobby Walker was in charge

of Trent Bridge Police Station and well known for preventing rabble rousers from entering the city.

Goodness me, how you have let values fall. Disgraceful.

Is this complaint about something that happened on one day or over many days?

Is it me or are the police a pathetic excuse for keeping law and order? Were they not able to stop them and create a barrier? Do they not believe it is their job to protect women and those speaking with them, from assault? Allowing the TRA's to act like this enables them. If they'd set up a sufficent barrier then the women would have been able to speak and everyone would have been kept separate and safe. The TRA's were able to move the women because the police allowed it. Well done to KJK and all the people who turned up to LWS!

Yes the police allowed it and they were forewarned what would happen. As they came marching towards us I thought surely the police are going to step in but no.

At the Dublin LWS last year the Gards set up two strong barriers and kept the bawling nutters 100 yards away from us. Obviously it can be done.

Agreed, BlackieKat I think this was a deliberate move by the police to get rid of us though it would be difficult to prove that. It had the flavour of what Albert Park in NZ must have been like.

However it somewhat backfired on them with KJK's brilliant tactical move to go to the police station😆
