The NHS trust at the centre of the Darlington nurses dispute would seem to have an agenda. From the Times: A hospital trust at the centre of a row over transwomen sharing female changing rooms has come under fire for producing a Pride calendar celebrating “polyamory” and “pansexuality”. County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust…

From the Times: Judges will no longer have to refer to criminal defendants by the gender of their choice in an update after the Supreme Court’s transgender ruling. The revised guidance abandons self-identification language and reaffirms the binary definition of sex to state that the legal definition of a woman means biological female rather than…

Dave Rich – The right side of history: What does it take for a demonstrator, marching through central London, to hold a placard declaring that a regime that maims and blinds young women for the ‘crime’ of wanting to choose how they dress is on the right side of history? Why is it that so…

Kemi Badenoch in the Times: Too many politicians treat the world like a student union. Abstract, simplistic and completely disconnected from reality. The world is not a debating club.
