Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman: their killer beat the rules to work in a school July 15 2021, 12.01am Sex offenders free to abuse children after changing ID TIMES INVESTIGATION Hundreds of registered sex offenders have changed their identity to escape scrutiny by exploiting a loophole that places countless children at risk of serious harm, an investigation reveals. The Times  has been shown examples of convicted child sex abusers changing their name by deed poll, failing to inform the authorities and using their new identity to gain access to children. In the most serious cases men barred for life from working with children used their new name to gain employment in schools and homes where they committed multiple further offences. One, who worked as an au pair, was jailed last year after police in Belgium uncovered a paedophile ring with nine million child abuse images. Another is in custody in Spain suspected of abusing 36 ...

The Australian Bid to exclude ‘people with penises’ from lesbian events ‘unlawful’ Tasmanian Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Sarah Bolt. By  MATTHEW DENHOLM 8:30AM JULY 18, 2021 ( TLDR:  The Tasmanian Anti-Discrimination commissioner has ruled that lesbians in Tasmania cannot have a lesbian meeting, because this would discriminate against males who wish to attend) "Lesbians will be breaking the law if they exclude biological males who are transgender from social events, after a controversial discrimination ruling set to become a national test case.

The Times- Jess Phillips "the only way a woman will become Labour leader is if men don't stand"

Jess Phillips "the only way a woman will become Labour leader is if men don't stand" Janice Turner, The Times, Saturday 17th July  While most of us gained weight during lockdown, Jess Phillips lost three stone. “I’m still on a strict 1,000 calories a day in the week, but at the weekend I do drink and eat bread.” While many faltered in their fine intentions to write a book during Covid, Phillips, often banging out 6,000 words per afternoon (“I find it quite therapeutic, especially if I’m cross about something”), managed two. One is a short treatise on motherhood; the other, Everything You Really Need to Know about Politics, reflects on her six years as a Labour MP.
