Interesting. The start of the piece:

“There is a crisis unfolding in the family courts around the world — one that is hidden in plain sight. It is a crisis born not of ignorance, but of ideology and at its centre are children, suffering silently, as the adults around them fail to see the truth of the harm they are enduring.

The family court system in England and Wales is increasingly being pulled into the orbit of a shared delusion — a sweeping narrative, largely driven by vocal women’s rights campaigners, that aims to convince the world that abusive fathers are using claims of “parental alienation” to gain custody of children, at the expense of protective mothers. This shared delusion, which has one repeated narrative, that the family courts are a hotbed of misogynistic control of women and children, has taken root once again, fed by the narratives of mothers who have been found to have harmed their children, supported by academics who take every word these women say as truth.”

Our thanks to John Barnett for this:

“Last week my wife was taken into hospital following a fall. Before the ambulance arrived we had a phone call from a nurse or possibly a doctor asking to speak to my wife . She was asked several questions one of which was “Has your husband been violent towards you?” A malicious or resentful spouse could of course have lied and answered “yes” so I do wonder about the ethics of effectively suggesting that such a thing had happened on the basis of no evidence whatsoever. But it just goes to exemplify the underlying antipathy towards men.”

Interesting. I’ve emailed my contact at the IEA (Mrs Thatcher’s favourite economic think tank) to ask if they plan to critique and compare the Reform UK position on Quantitiative Tightening (QT) with that of the Bank of England.

A piece (£) in yesterday’s Sunday Times. What a statement on policing in the UK today, which has become increasingly feminised over the years, with predictable consequences after the feminisation of medicine, education, and more.

The car had an Apple AirTag fitted, so it could be located by the owners. The car was in Chiswick, a few miles from where it was stolen. The couple dialled 999 only to be told by the police that they didn’t know when they would be able to investigate. When the couple suggested they may look for the vehicle themselves, they were told only to call 101 if they found it.

“If you ever thought that feminism is only a Western problem this video will change your mind. Don’t jump to conclusions about the speaker.”

Sad. An interesting and detailed article, well worth reading in full. Extracts takes up the remainder of this piece:

“A review into the death of a 27-year-old man who took his own life after suffering sustained domestic abuse at the hands of his partner has highlighted concerns that not enough is done to help male victims.

In the report, his family claim he was “treated differently” by agencies intended to help people suffering from domestic abuse because he was a man and that police often took his partner’s side, as she was a woman…

The report recounts how, in March 2023, Val [J4MB: a pseudonym for the dead man, in the report] texted a relative and Kim in the early hours, sending them a video of himself indicating he was going to end his life.

He ended the messages with “goodbye”.

Police officers forced their way into his King’s Lynn home, and found the man sat opposite the front door. Despite the efforts of the emergency services, he could not be revived. 

An inquest into his death was held at Norfolk Coroner’s Court last August.

Assistant coroner Christopher Leach did not give a verdict of suicide after toxicology analysis showed the combination of recreational cocaine and alcohol found in Val’s system would have increased risk taking behaviour.

Instead, he recorded a narrative conclusion, stating Val had died “having applied a ligature to his own neck, his intentions when doing so being unknown”. [J4MB emphasis. I refer you to the first sentence in this extract. The man sent a video of himself to his partner and a relative “indicating he was going to end his life”.]

Interesting. The start of the piece (in a Nigerian newspaper):

“A 58-year-old man has been charged to court in South Africa after 21 different female vaginas were found in a fridge in his house.

Peter Frederiksen allegedly lured women to his Bloemfontein home, sedated them and performed illegal surgical operations on them without their permission.

According to local police, he was said to be wanted for gun-running charges in his native country of Denmark.

Frederiksen, who owns a gun shop in South Africa, has been charged with sexual assault, intimidation and domestic violence, but it is not yet clear if the operations were performed on the victims while they were dead or alive or if the 21 different vaginas were from different women.” [J4MB emphasis: I’m guessing wildly that they were from different women.]

Interesting. Laura Bates and Charlotte Proudman were among the speakers, what are the chances? The end of the piece:

“The Unlikeable Woman™ Summit created a space where difficult conversations could be had with honesty and intelligence, and where being “unlikeable” was reframed as not only acceptable, but powerful.”

An interesting piece by Kristian Niemietz, Editorial Director of the IEA. In 2012 the IEA posted my blog piece, a link on this post The Institute of Economic Affairs, and ‘The Gender Diversity Delusion’, not long afterwards I gave a well-received presentation to a capacity audience at the IEA.
