A short but heartfelt piece on TCW. We echo Laura’s sentiments.

Our thanks to Nigel for this, an archived piece published yesterday in the Telegraph. Wes Streeting, 41, is a Labour MP and has been the Shadow Secretary of State for Health and Social Care since 2021. Nigel writes:

“Wes Streeting is “angry” about male suicide and men’s shorter lifespans. Good. But I doubt the regiment of feminists in his party would let an effective health strategy for men see the light of day. There isn’t a “crisis in masculinity” but the simple fact is “our NHS” is mainly concerned with women. Just as the education of boys comes second after prioritising girls.”

An extract from the Telegraph article:

“I think lots of young men, particularly working class boys, are struggling in school and worried about their futures. And I think that that’s contributing to a sort of crisis in masculinity, with mental ill-health rising, and suicide being the biggest single biggest killer of young men under 50,” he said.

“Young men under 50”. Right. Like politicians in all the major parties, Streeting makes no mention of the absence of a national screening programme for prostate cancer, which kills more men than breast cancer kills women. Of course putting the blame for the high male suicide rate on men’s “mental health issues” is victim blaming of the worst sort, and distances politicians from a responsibility to reduce the rate through addressing the well-known issues which most commonly lead to men taking their own lives.

Life for many men and boys will inevitably worsen under the forthcoming Labour government.

An appalling piece of garbage (video, 13:45) published yesterday. The people who run The Times should be ashamed of themselves.

As someone who enjoys good cigars, but can rarely afford them these days – I am more often a pipe smoker – I was interested to read this by Mary Harrington, the author of Feminism Against Progress. William Collins’s lengthy critique of the book is in two parts, here and here.

We’re always looking for new members for the J4MB Smoking Club. An extract from a related post:

“Recent research by cultural historians at the University of Swindon established a clear causal link between the decline in pipe smoking in the UK, and the rise of feminism. The findings have yet to be published online, but we’ll publish the report as soon as it’s made available.

Given the causal link, it’s clearly important to reverse the decline in pipe smoking in the UK, to reverse the influence of feminism. Pipe smoking needs to become fashionable again, for men of all ages to discover (or re-discover) the pleasures of the habit.

The club will only admit male members – perhaps I could have phrased that better – but anti-feminist ladies will be permitted at events as guests of club members, so long as they’re smoking. Elizabeth Hobson, who much appreciates the occasional Havana, is looking forward to joining us.”

Yesterday was International Women’s Day, apparently. The BBC broadcasts on Radio 3 every Saturday “J to Z”, on jazz music. Today’s programme is titled, “International Women’s Day Special”. A woman says this at the start:

“And now, here on BBC Radio 3, it’s time for “J to Z”, and a second chance to hear an episode first broadcast for International Women’s Day last year.”

A rare outbreak of common sense at the BBC. I won’t be listening to the episode, but I look forward to the BBC repeating it again in future years ad infinitum.

Our thanks to Steve for this. How the BBC must have baulked at publishing a piece on this,. Needless to say, they’ve applied their usual progressive slant to it. Doubtless the good people of Ireland will be given more chances in coming years to deliver a ‘correct’ result, and the government will continue to ignore the constitution anyway.
