    I totally disagree. She is a perjurer, and should be sent to jail for lying under oath. 

     

    She should be. But she won't be.

     

    She ticks too many boxes and she knows it. She plays on it. 

     

    Her reputation is shot to pieces and her career is nearing the end. If Biden wins she will be offered a quiet exit via the back door. An area she is no doubt familiar with. 

     

    If Trump wins? Maybe less comfortable.

    That's men against women. Your link helps in the views agaibst trans women competing with biological women.

     

    However, it still doesn't back your original comment in its entirety.

     

    It's US too. The England ladies team would give the US mens team a good run for their money. 🤣🤣🤣

     

    Did you read it? They were playing Wrexham, a second rate side. And still got hammered.

     

    Imagine if they were playing Man City. Or a national side like Brazil. 20-0? Maybe more.

     

    The gulf is massive. It's almost a different sport.

    We have weight classes in many sports to offset these advantages. And even have girls wrestling boys in HS, sanctioned in Iowa for example.

     

    So you'd put a 140lb female in a boxing ring with Subriel Matias? Or a 175lb female in with Artur Beterbiev? 😃

     

    Any governing body that sanctioned such a fight would likely end up on charges of involuntary manslaughter. It's lunacy to even suggest that men and women of an equal weight should compete in a sport like boxing.

    Never organized any cycle events around any parks.
     

    I did race around Greenwich Park on two occasions, races there were included in National league.

     
    I doubt they made money either.


    Elite sport is a tiny fraction of all old port (the term elite is a clue).

     

     

     

     

     

    Greenwich Park... Lovely. Many a lazy day spent there with Uni friends having a cheeky joint, and only a short walk to The Princess of Wales overlooking the common.

     

    It really depends what you call Elite sport. I would classify it as either Pro or Amateur. Pro sport focuses on profit, the clue is in the name. However, I wouldn't support biological men competing against women in amateur sport either. We need to encourage a level playing field for girls and women, not send them out onto a Rugby field on a Sunday morning with a bloke with an identity crisis that is likely to injure them due to the disparity in physical strength (and possible psychological issues).

    A brief reading on the matter of government funding to grass roots sports will give you a clue, however ass roots sports is not a profit enterprise.

     

    Ass roots sports? I could certainly "get behind" women's involvement in that...😃

     

    Most elite sports revolve around money. Obviously organizing one of your cycles round the park for the local WI group would probably only require costs to be covered.

    8,000 complaints to police now.

     

    Scotlands new Hate Speech Law: “There are Hamas supporters taking to the streets in Scotland. They can say whatever they want.  But God forbid you misgender a trans person, you are going straight to jail.” 

     

     

     

    Not surprising really.

     

    The law is designed to silence Yousaf's political/ideological enemies. I doubt Hamas supporters fall into that group. Quite the opposite I'd imagine.
