Congratulations to Immigration Minister Michael Wood for refusing to ban British anti-trans activist Posie Parker speaking in New Zealand. The utterly fraudulent argument proffered by diverse sexually confused groups for the ban was that Parker’s presence would cause riots. And the reason they would occur is these same groups say they plan to cause them.
Ironically, on the day Parker is due to arrive news came that the World Athletics organisation has banned trans athletes from competing, other that is, than in their actual gender category and not their imagined one.
The major issue here is not the ridiculous trans one, that is whether hulking male brutes declaring themselves to be women automatically makes them women. Rather it’s about freedom of speech.
If you don’t like what Parker says then don’t listen to it, not try to disrupt it.
The usual suspects condemned the visit. Current Wellington mayor Tory Whanau announced she would attend to protest. I say current as the capital has had a series of disastrous mayors since Kerry Prendergast and has booted them out at the first opportunity as doubtless it will do with Whanau.
A final thought. Critics of trans peoples’ fantasies are labelled trans-phobic, typical of their ignorance re language. Phobic means fear. The critics are not fearful in the least of these sexually confused folk, rather, specially in the case of male trans for example, women don’t want them in their toilets or with their physical advantages, competing with them in sport. Otherwise it’s entirely their business if they believe they’re born in the wrong body and are really a zebra, Napoleon or the opposite sex.

You may be aware Mr Jones that the matter is now before the High Court. The NZ Socialist Stasi are manic in their determination to keep Ms Parker out of NZ.
The whole transgender thing has morphed into a woke monster, whose ridiculous claims demand to be complied with.
In reality, we're talking an infinitesimally small number of people that fall into this category. They are welcome to believe what they want but they cannot be allowed to dictate to virtually everyone else and the norms of society should not be corrupted to please them.
As with the whole woke movement, niche minorities rule, always at the expense of the vast majority.
It's time to nip this in the bud.
Bob has a knack of expression in understandable terms quite unlike current reporters. As he establishes, it is absurd that if someone proposes to lecture on say democrrcy and some stroppy group (ie bikie gang, haka group, Waitangi nutters or other maori associates) threaten to cause a riot, then the visit of the innocent speaker is at risk of cancellation. it is the disrupters who should be intercepted.
Some of these wokists say that the use of 'mother' is 'hate speech'. For example Breastfeeding Australia sacked a volunteer worker for repeatedly using the 'm' word. And no NZ politicians have the guts to criticise this nonsense.
wood for brains.
Quite right, although a ‘Phobia’ is actually an ‘irrational fear’. It is not irrational for women and girls to fear a hairy main with mental health problems in their bathrooms.
And while on the topic of Wellington the first 3 pages of todays socialist rag, the Dom. Post, has 3 stories about Wellington CC that should have all Wellington ratepayers up in arms. Pleased I moved away from that dump 4 years ago. Unfortunately still a ratepayer but working on changing that.
