I’m often sneeringly accused by all sides of being ‘obsessed’ with the rise of trans. And it's true that for the past few years I’ve not been commissioned to write on much besides. Consequently, I’m now one of a handful of journalists to become expert in the issue. 1/3

Dear broadcasters, instead of asking about the feelings of crossdressing men who are angry they can be excluded from female services & spaces, could you reflect on the relief felt by most women?

Quite a few comments about my bad skin, dodgy teeth & burgeoning wrinkles since I switched from my caricature profile pic. To be clear- I’m 43, enjoy a diet of tea, fags, beer & chocolate & my teeth are terrible cos I’m British. I’m pretty ok with all of that 🤷‍♀️

Latest! "Upton’s demand to undress in front of reluctant women is as much a display of unbridled male power as a silverback gorilla thumping his chest. As Peggie’s lawyer reflected, ‘There’s a bully in this story, but it’s not the 50-year-old nurse’."

Every time I see the ‘Protect the Dolls’ I feel the need to point out that the slogan comes straight from sissification pornography. Trans identities were spawned by porn.

3 years ago @spikedonline commissioned me to write a deep dive into Mermaids’ activities. Now those fishy bastards are soon to be beached. I’m bloody proud to have played my part as one of the first journos to expose them & Stonewall to wider scrutiny 😁

This is insane. A barrister arguing that the feelings of an abusive, boundary violating man are more important than the truth, and a woman's right to freely express herself.

JR - do you accept that calling DU a man, that not a woman is likely to cause immense distress SP - when I'm in the situation, feeling intimidated and embarrassed, I needed to explain that he was a man JR - did not answer my question, is it offensive SP - it's the truth

This is a devastating watch. And she’s spot on, how is it that the views of one man are worth more than those of 26 nurses? This is sharia on steroids

Hi Philip, that’s my article. Would you care to point out any errors or inaccuracies? I take my job very seriously, unlike you I don’t write fantasy.
