Transvestite Racoon

Parents have attacked a CBeebies show for featuring a gender-neutral racoon.

In the episode of Hey Duggee, an award-winning show, which is aimed at five-year-olds, a racoon called Wren and “their” siblings are introduced.

The gender-neutral language has been criticised as “inappropriate” and “confusing” for children still learning how to speak.

Some guy told the Globe CSIS alleges India organized support for Poilievre’s 2022 Conservative leadership as part of a larger effort to cozy up to pols of all stripes

CSIS alleges India organized support for Poilievre’s 2022 Conservative leadership bid

Agents of India and their proxies allegedly meddled in the 2022 election of Pierre Poilievre as Conservative Party Leader as part of a larger effort to cozy up to politicians of all parties, according to a source with top-secret clearance.

The source said the Canadian Security Intelligence Service learned that Indian agents were involved in raising money and organizing within the South Asian community for Mr. Poilievre during the leadership race, which he won handily. But the CSIS assessment did not indicate that this effort was done in a sweeping and highly organized way, the source said. Mr. Poilievre won on the first ballot with 68 per cent of the vote.

CSIS also did not have evidence that Mr. Poilievre or members of his inner circle were aware of the alleged actions of India’s agents and their proxies, said the source, who has national security clearance to see top secret reports.

Nurse Punished for Saying ‘Mr’ to Transgender Paedophile

A National Health Service (NHS) nurse is taking legal action against her employer—after she was punished for calling a convicted criminal ‘mister,’ in contravention of his preferred (female) pronouns.

Jennifer Melle filed her legal claim against Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals Trust following its pursuit of her in an October 2024 disciplinary action, resulting in a final written warning and a referral to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). The trust also placed her on restricted duties, resulting in a loss of overtime payments.

Condemning Hamas is now a risky business

Speaking the truth is now a risky business in Britain. NHS nurse Jennifer Melle was admonished by the hospital she works at in Surrey for referring to a male paedophile as “Mr”. The man, known only as Patient X, identifies as a woman. He’s also a convicted child sex offender.

And yet it was Ms Melle who found herself in hot water, because when this criminal was brought to her hospital for treatment she called him “Mr”. That sounds perfectly polite to me. Not to mention accurate. But apparently it’s a reprimandable offence to prefer reality to fantasy.
