I am cream crackered but it was a great afternoon at Reformer’s Tree. The weather was good and the police did a great job at holding back the chanting anti-women activists (AWAs) though I understand there was one scuffle that took place. Very strangely, despite the fine weather, some of the AWAs had open brollies presumably to try and hide their identities. There were great speeches as ever ( including a 12 year old girl and a great poem from Aja the Empress) though, since I was at the back, those of you at home probably heard them much better than I did. Also I was spending a lot of time chatting to people ( well away from the speakers I hasten to add). I caught up with the speeches on the train home! I met Glinner, Mr Menno and many other great people. My wife was there and two of our Terven friends. We had a grand day out.
Here are some of my photos ( sorry, I’m not a professional!).

Queens Speech
Great episode of Queens Speech with Clive and Dennis.
Topics covered:
Ian Banham being sacked by Wild Youth
The trashing of Jolyon Maughan’s book and the great responses to him on Twitter by JKR
The long wait for the judgment in the LGB Alliance case, which was due, of course, to Mr Maughan, the fox killer, advising Mermaids to try and get the Alliance’s charitable status revoked
Brief discussion of Stonewall only dealing with trans matters
The stopping by AWAs of the second attempt to screen the film Adult Human Female at Edinburgh University . Dennis explains that this amounts to a disruption of freedom of expression and freedom of political assembly
The Genspect conference in Ireland which was just down the road from the WPATH conference! Dennis attended the former which will be made available on line in due course
Sex Matters video featuring detransitioners- I don’t think it is yet available on their website as far as I can make out. There is a discussion of the fact that there are no real care services for detransitioners
Elon Musk coming on side.
Kirstie Allsopp
I will only trouble you with a couple of paragraphs of the latest drivel from Ms Allsopp. I am bit surprised that the Express didn’t go and find a gender critical campaigner to comment on this article.
Melanie Kaidan in The Daily Express (Kirstie Allsopp vents at 'moral panic' as she wades in on transgender row 30 April) reports:
Kirstie Allsopp
Kirstie Allsopp, 51, has logged onto Twitter to speak out on transgender rights, as she vented about "trans panic" against transgender women.
The Location, Location, Location star claimed in view of her 434,000 followers that there is "far, far more transphobic abuse than there are abusive trans people".
Firstly, Ms Allsopp where are the examples of ‘transphobic abuse’?
Secondly ….to cut down on the amount of work involved for you…why don’t you just read JL’s Glinner Update each week if you want a never ending series of examples of ‘abusive trans people’ ( that’s putting it mildly). Amazing how she has not only joined the AWA camp but adopted their tactics which are …what’s the word now…oh yeh, lying.
Scott Newgent
Very impassioned interview with Scott Newgent, a well known trans identifying female, on GB News. I think Scott was meant to talk at the LWS event but I presume that the accident she talks about prevented her getting there which is a great shame.
OMG I need to sleep.
If you like this update, please share with a friend. Until next time, Terven. This isn’t over yet! Please subscribe for free, like and comment.
Thanks TT.
My wife found it for me.
Very revealing I think.
I will do a post including it later.

Hi Dusty, really glad you enjoyed your day. You met heroes, I’m jealous!
I’m embarrassed to say that I still haven’t mastered posting a link to a substack, despite your idiots guide. I can do it elsewhere, honest. The reason I’m confessing, relates to my last comment on Graham’s substack re: the drivel AWAs speak. On the Jesters twitter page there’s an incredible three minute interview of three handmaidens. It may be useful.
