Paper here for you on transwomen in sport from the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Key phrase is “ Current evidence … does not support theories of inherent athletic advantages for transgender women over cisgender”

“But the general perception is that legal and illegal immigration is out of control, that Britain is a soft touch and that millions of pounds are being spent to house asylum seekers in comfortable hotels.” It not the job of the media (such as The Times) to push back against incorrect perception?

A screen shot of the Times article saying “That cause - as social media, self-promoting provocateurs and interventions from across the Atlantic insist — is uncontrolled immigration. The numbers crossing the Channel in small boats have fallen this year; the crackdown on students bringing dependants and on overseas recruitment for care homes has brought down the overall total. But the general perception is that legal and illegal immigration is out of control in, that Britain is a soft touch and that millions of pounds are being spent to house asylum seekers in comfortable hotels. It is a message thundered out in ever cruder language, amounting sometimes to ugly incitement against all non-white people, whether they arrived last week or are third-generation Britons.”

@hallierubenhold.bsky.social What a wonderful book. The last paragraph of the epilogue moved me to tears. Will be recommending this book (and The Five) to whoever will listen!

I like the killers and I think it looked ok on the tv, but it was all wrong for a football match. My daughter in Sydney didn’t like it.

@geofftech.bsky.social Hi Geoff. Have you seen these new signs at Blackheath? I wonder how they were allowed to get the retro ones to replace the South Eastern branded ones.
