Replying to @LAURAJOJO
Friends lending the Sussexes private jets or houses are mega wealthy and high profile. They don't need/expect access to the British monarchy and special favours, unlike the oligarchs, pdfs, arms dealers, former footballers and Middle Eastern despots who swarm around the others

For the transactivists who've decided I abused my son, here are the sorts of reasons he said he'd tell the police on me: no to fire-eater at b'day party/£200 football boots/drinking vinegar; requests to pick up towel/put plate in sink/get dressed. He was a kid, arrest me. More /1
If I had a pound for every time my son said he was going to tell the police about me I'd have many pounds. The idea that he could actually do so because I'd tried to persuade him not to take harmful & irreversible medication in a vain attempt to become a woman is terrifying.

Why wasn't the letter passed to other law enforcement agencies? Did someone tell them not to?

I’ve now been contacted by numerous people about the ‘Boob Man of Oxford’. Those who work or study at Oxford have asked for anonymity, so I can’t share identifying details. But some common themes have emerged: - Unsurprisingly, women describe feeling uncomfortable about a male lecturer wearing what appear to be oversized prosthetic breasts in their place of work or study - Some question whether there is a sexual element or whether it is a ‘power play’. These are their concerns, rather than established explanations for his behaviour - but are legitimate concerns nonetheless - They say they’re afraid to raise concerns because he is surrounded by ‘allies’, including staff, who defend his appearance as 'self-expression' One source has even wondered whether this is an elaborate stunt to embarrass the university - along the lines of Josh Seiter, who pretended to be a trans woman as an 'experiment'. Another source says this has been going on for three years - which does seem a long time to keep up the act. There is interest in covering this in the mainstream press. What would help now is more documentary evidence: complaint letters, responses or correspondence showing how concerns have been handled. My inbox is open: [email protected]. Happy to have a confidential chat about any aspect of this. All messages treated in confidence.

Jesus Christ…😳😳😡 It appears Caroline Graham & the Daily Mail invented the story that Thomas Markle, Sr & his Filipina nurse were in a romantic relationship. We are now learning that the nurse barely spoke English, was never in a relationship with him and was so publicly humiliated by the Mail’s LIES she resigned from her job. 😔 Did the Mail lie on this nurse to cover up the unethical practices of their own journalist, Caroline who appeared to have had her own romantic relationship with Tom, Sr., or were they aware of his alleged PDF activities and used this adult nurse as his love interest to cover for his indiscretions?? 😳🤢
1/3 I have more to add to the mega-weirdness @MarinaHyde writes about. We’ve just been to the hospital here in Cebu, Philippines, where the Daily Mail claimed in March that Thomas Markle Senior had “found love again” with a Filipino nurse, Rio Canedo, 35 years his junior. But…

The identity of "celebrity threatening to take his own life if allegations about him are made public" has to be The Worst Kept Secret in History. And how is his 'right to life' worth more than women's 'right to go about their business without being sexually assaulted by him'?🤷‍♀️

"Our research shows that in England, Wales and Northern Ireland 86-88% of sexual crimes in leisure centre changing rooms took place in mixed-sex facilities. In Scotland 100% of these crimes occurred in mixed-sex changing rooms."
GOOD NEWS! Brighton Council appears to have had a change of heart on pushing through a mixed-sex only changing village at its new £6.9 million swimming pool at Withdean. The local newspaper reports that the facility has been redesigned to include single-sex changing alongside mixed-sex family changing, something local residents had requested. Cabinet member for sports Alan Robins said the original changing village plans were compliant with Sport England advice at the time but that new designs had been drawn up based on the Equalities and Human Rights Commission guidance, which says single sex provision should be based on biological sex. We wonder if the EHRC statement that Councils which only provide mixed-sex changing could leave them liable to legal claims of discrimination against women may have concentrated their minds? This can only be good news for the women and children who will use the new centre. Our research shows that in England, Wales and Northern Ireland 86-88% of sexual crimes in leisure centre changing rooms took place in mixed-sex facilities. In Scotland 100% of these crimes occurred in mixed-sex changing rooms. They are a complete failure of safeguarding and protecting. 🚩 We hope this outbreak of commonsense will spread to all councils planning new leisure centre facilities. It can never be safe to allow males into areas where women and children are changing. Single-sex changing facilities should now be industry standard in every new project. Withdean’s new plans are set to be approved at a Council Cabinet meeting in December. We urge Brighton residents to keep an eye on proceedings and ensure that the Council fulfils its promise to provide single-sex changing options. The safest changing room is a single-sex changing room.

If this is shown to be true, hands up everyone who would be surprised. [All hands stay down other than those of the "she's a racist!" nitwits, if they can find the time to raise their hands in between their porcine squealing]

It's a horrible feeling when someone convicted is someone who was known to you. Mark was on my borough, I knew him to have a conversation with & worked central aid a few times with him over the years. I was shocked to hear what had happened - I felt he was a decent guy, but others who knew him better have since told me differently. Just goes to show, you never know what someone is capable of, even if they seem decent. 🚨 FORMER MET POLICE OFFICER GUILTY OF RAPING WOMAN HE MET THROUGH HIS WORK Former Metropolitan Police officer Mark Tyrrell, 57, has been convicted of rape, three sexual assaults and perverting the course of justice. The woman repeatedly told Tyrrell “no” before he raped her. Jurors heard that he later acknowledged what he had done was rape. Tyrrell served in the Met’s Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command — the same command in which convicted rapists Wayne Couzens and David Carrick also served. Police concerns were raised after officers attending the woman’s home over an unrelated matter discovered Tyrrell hiding beside her bed. He attempted to delete messages exchanged with the woman and persuaded her to lie to police about why he was in her bedroom. In one message, he apologised for “being a sex offender” and “for ruining your life by being in it”. Tyrrell denied that the sexual activity was non-consensual, maintaining it had been consensual. He was acquitted of 13 other charges, including a further rape count. He will be sentenced at Southwark Crown Court on 16 December. Couzens is serving a whole-life sentence for kidnapping, raping and murdering Sarah Everard in 2021. Carrick is serving 37 life sentences for a series of sexual offences against women.

As a nation we do memorials so well. IT HAS NO SADDLE. NO RIDER. AND IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY, A SINGLE TEAR. THIS IS THE NATIONAL MEMORIAL TO THE HORSES OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR. Unveiled in 2018, she stands at Ascot. The horse is simply called Poppy.

Big story here from @RobWaugh74: scores of Harry & Meghan 'stories' are being manufactured by online casino sites, citing 'sources' such as psychics and lip-readers. @Betfair admits "there is no connection between Betfair and Harry and Meghan". pressgazette.co.uk/news/more…
