Today’s video is here (17:30).

Over a period of more than two years we’re posting links to one video daily from the J4MB YouTube channel. The channel includes our media appearances since 2012, 300+ videos of talks and other materials from the International Conferences on Men’s Issues (2014 – ) and other men’s issues conferences we’ve been involved with, and so much more. The individual conference playlists are here.

Our website Campaign for Merit in Business was created in the light of the considerable evidence of a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial decline. Mike Buchanan, Steve Moxon and Dr Catherine Hakim (the originator of Preference Theory) presented evidence to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries in 2012, the video of their House of Commons evidence session is here (56:50).

Finally, we run the award-winning website Laughing at Feminists. The related comedy channel (170+ videos) is here. Remember, it’s more than important to laugh at feminists, it’s a civic duty.

Our thanks to Len for this. An extract:

“Buckle’s compensation claim was rejected due to a subtle but important change in the law in 2014.

Previously, compensation was paid out if the claimant had established, beyond reasonable doubt, that any reasonable jury could not convict on the evidence provided.

In Buckle’s retrial the jury found him “not guilty” after hearing new witnesses and forensic evidence, which would have made him eligible for a payout.

But since 2014, compensation is only paid to those who can prove they did not commit the crime, which Vullo [J4MB: Buckle’s barrister] said was impossible as no DNA or CCTV evidence exists to conclusively prove Buckle’s innocence.

“If you were to ask me to draft a piece of legislation that would ensure that almost everybody was turned down for compensation, I’d draft something similar to this [current law],” said Vullo.

“It’s not by mistake, it’s intentional,” he claimed.”

Alcohol Use Disorder – and Substance Use Disorders in general – are men’s issues because many more men than women suffer from them. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported in 2024 that an estimated 400 million people, or 7% of the world’s population aged 15 years and older, lived with alcohol use disorders. The alcohol-attributable mortality was heaviest among men, accounting for 2 million deaths annually compared to 600 000 deaths among women, in 2019. The WHO report is here.

I have a website dedicated to Alcohol Use Disorder, Men Stop Drinking. After having been a heavy drinker for many years, I’ve been abstinent from alcohol since 9 September 2025, when I started taking Antabuse (disulfiram) daily. I haven’t wished to drink alcohol since that day. I stopped taking Antabuse in May 2026, and remain abstinent. If you’re a man with a drinking problem, and could possibly benefit from my support and advice to help you become and remain abstinent, feel free to contact me (mike@j4mb.org.uk). I shall not charge for my time.

Paul Elam was a substance abuse counsellor for 30 years. He and I co-wrote the book ANTABUSE: The one-step program for alcohol abstinence. Available only through Amazon, the Kindle edition is available to order here, the paperback edition here. We recorded a discussion about Alcohol Use Disorder and abstinence, here (video, 36:59).

Our thanks to Len for this press release issued a month ago, written by the Ministry of Justice, Baroness Levitt KC and David Lammy. A related BBC piece is here. The opening paragraph of the press release:

“Overdue reforms to protect women [J4MB emphasis] and meet the needs of modern relationships as the government continues to prioritise tackling VAWG and working people.”

Another extract:

“Justice Minister Baroness Levitt KC, said:    

Financial independence should be afforded to everybody – not just those who choose to marry or enter into a civil partnership.

Too many women [J4MB emphasis – so, ‘everybody’ other than men] who have suffered the horrors of domestic abuse [J4MB emphasis – allegedly, another pot of gold for dishonest women and their lawyers] are left destitute at the end of a relationship because they’ve been denied the rights they deserve. The outcome of our consultation will be a system which celebrates choice, autonomy, and tradition in equal measure.”

The CONsultation will launch on June 5 and run for 10 weeks, closing on August 14. In common with all consultations on gendered matters, seeking to influence what the government plans to do will be an exercise in utter futility. One inevitable consequence will be that huge numbers of men currently co-habiting with women will wish they’d stopped co-habiting before the introduction of the legislation. I should not be in the least surprised if the legislation covers formerly co-habiting couples.
