“Cambridge’s oldest women-only college has sparked a storm by saying it’ll keep admitting trans women, even after the Supreme Court ruled a woman means a biological female. The Mail has the story.
They say the stance defies April’s Supreme Court ruling in which five justices unanimously said ‘woman’ means a biological woman and that a trans woman does not have the right to use a women-only space or service.
Newnham College, which has feminist Germaine Greer, actress Emma Thompson and presenter Clare Balding among its alumni, has created a gender policy stating it is open to all “female” applicants – including those born as men.
Although it has been accepting trans-identified males since 2017, its new policy document enshrines their ability to access the single-sex space.
On Saturday night, furious campaigners pledged to report the college to the Equality and Human Rights Commission and the Charity Commission over a possible breach of equalities law.”
JH: Not entirely sure we males can be born men … pretty tall order for our mums. Male babies would be fine, thx, give us a few years, took me decades.

This photograph is the first in which a person appears in front of the camera and is also the first photo of the city of Paris. The used camera needs about 5 minutes to collect the light and scene. The street was full of people, but as they moved during the shot they failed to impress themselves in the photo except for one person who stopped for a few minutes to shine his shoes and history immortalized him. It was the year 1839.
6. The girl in the first song of the music post below
… listen through it if you would, file it in main file or bin as you want:
Firstly, the rationale of using a “reactor version” of a song
With a music video or three on a blog … adding a reactor to one side can multiply the dynamics going on, provided:
the song itself has enough going for it from its time, is a classic of its genre, if the acoustics and vision are good and so on … Sultans of Swing, House of the Rising Sun, Righteous Bros all fit the bill as known-knowns;
the reactor is precisely the right person for that genre, for that type of thing, is not full of BS for the first two minutes, e.g. lacks ego, is generally knowledgeable, cares, is open to something not his/her era (all three below are generations younger) … and so it goes on;
there’s at least some audience for the songs in 2025. For example, most here would maybe not care for Joe Cocker, his mannerisms, his voice … but a dozen maybe do realise it’s of our era, it was our culture of the time, our radio … and had a murky backstory;
there are other dynamics going on as well as just song and reactor … maybe the reactors themselves bring a whole different human element into it … together with their own backstories … together with some difficult questions … that’s why these three very responsive and/or unusual girls below.
Why not boys for such a job? Wasted, I’m afraid. Give the boys tech-proficient songs they can analyse to the nth degree and they’re on clover … but not with Joe Cocker’s gravelly power and passion … that needed someone like Stacey (third number), who noted that Joe Cocker (initials JC by the way) “seemed possessed by the music” 13m 05s, then 14m 57s … he didn’t just rattle it off. Almost complicit you might say.
And in the second song, a very vulnerable seeming girl opens her vlog with discordant metal noise … quite out of keeping with her nature it would seem … Stacey’s word “possessed” springs to mind. I went looking in youtube about her backstory and at one point, she wrote of “returning to her family”, which suggests she was drawn away. Shan’t look further down that rabbithole.
About the Beatles song itself which Cocker sings, Paul McCartney himself was all for this “good northern lad” from Sheffield.
And after the song ends, she reads further about it, something to do with some Caesar or other, or some Section or other, whatever that means (for some reason, Huntingdon sprang to my mind and the notion of possession again).
A few Xers pointed out, about the Huntingdon perps, that one of the killers may well have been a yardy:
… but it sounded more like a “prison conversion”:
Plus Steve’s comment here:
“Seems Rupert is in agreement with you, James: ‘The British State Is Complicit.’”
The third song below brings in yet another dynamic … the backing singers are elevated far more … they’re almost co-leads at times … almost … they ask him questions in some sort of catechism, not unlike sirens, which he answers … everyone giving his/her all … and then that bloodcurdling scream from the “good northern lad”.
Essentially, I’m saying that there’s no way we’d have seen any of the above without these reactors to one side. Add to that those two curious girls (tracks one and two) … what a contrast. The first instantly possessed by the sound, voodoo like … the second typical western would-be good girl, wanting to analyse, unable to. Fragments, bits and pieces, no? No coherent whole backstory.
Throw in here that the second kid reminds me of Carrie, plus the Tuesday reference is to Tuesday Weld, who in turn was on with Don McLean, who’d written that song about 1959, plus she was inhabiting Chateau Marmaunt at one time … look that one up. Plus in that second song, note the bass guitar inverted, turned on its head. Plus more snippets coming next post.
Juss sayin’ like.
The reactors: Stacey’s one of my regular visits, always an intelligent assessment. The other two are new to me. The first girl comes up again in Mon 6 on a different topic, not music.
(0723) Very late rising, was involved in writing the next post (goes up at 0832 GMT) about 3 a.m., dropped off, here we are. (0811)

That last “connecting dots” bit is just what we looked at in Mon 2 below.
2. Connecting the dots
The last item in Mon 3 is about this … that everything, as Dirk Gently used to say, is fundamentally interconnected. In RL, there is also a plan behind it, with vast resources expended, first gathered through both legit, if shady business, down to straight out trafficking and paedo.
And the corollary is … not everything nefarious looking to one group will look nefarious to another … yet often it is, but middle class white leftists, esp. girls, just don’t see it. After the first short feature comes up at 0832, the girl in the first song, whom I’m far from complimentary about, comes up in Mon 6 later, in quite a different context … this time as a “goody”, maybe a real one.
Now, about the link Steve provides at 1190, in Evets 1, it’s iffy I’m afraid. The guy’s About section is opaque, advertising his books, but he can be found in other places … a Michael Snyder, no details whatever upfront about him:
Billionairess, multiple marriages, has a “ministry”, weasel word “philanthopist” comes up … red flags and alarm bells everywhere, not unlike that White House “faith person”.
I’d reserve taking anything onboard from him … or her … until thoroughly checked out. Seems a classic “before it’s news” situation … have not the time before mid morning to explore.

a) France also has a two-tier justice system. Last Sunday, a man entered the Saint-Pierre Abbey in Moissac (Tarn-et-Garonne) and assaulted a nun, threatened another person who was filming him, then left shouting before kicking the door….
b) A group of teenage girls were assaulted with acid on their way home from trick or treating by a group of “hooded youths” on Saturday evening in a Paris suburb. (JH: Wondered when the acid would start coming into it.)
c) You WON’T BELIEVE what Wikipedia just did to an Orwell Classic…[or will you?].
d) Two little n***er boys arrested on a train, One is released. He didn’t act like Cain….
I put out a theory, given Jamaican connections perhaps:
12. The TPA this morning
All the way back in May 2025 we warned that the Covid Inquiry would end up being the most expensive statutory inquiry in British history. Highlighting this clearly irritated those running the inquiry who branded our research as ‘flawed’.
Fast forward 11 months, and headlines broke that show, unsurprisingly, our research team was bang on the money.
This week, the scale and staggering cost of Britain’s illegal migration crisis became impossible to ignore. A damning report from the Home Affairs Committee revealed how migrant hotels have shifted from being a “temporary stop-gap” to the government’s “go-to solution”, with costs tripling from £4.5 billion to £15.3 billion. Even worse, the report exposed how private contractors are pocketing “excessive” profits off the backs of hardworking taxpayers.
Naturally, the TPA leapt straight into action, securing four separate media slots in one day to hammer home the message that taxpayers are being taken for a ride. Our investigations campaign manager, Callum McGoldrick, told Peter Cardwell on Talk: “If you do the maths, you can see this is clearly not value for money. What should be looked at is keeping them in short-term accommodation before deporting them.”
Further to this, it was revealed by The Sun that the Heathrow detention centre was offering £31,500 for a hairdresser job to cut the hair of illegal migrants before deportation and needed to know the “cultural needs” of the people that they were dealing with. Having none of it, our media campaign manager told GB News viewers on Martin Daubney’s show, “I don’t think that illegal immigrants should have their haircut. The only thing that they should be having cut is the amount of time they spend in the UK”.
Between ballooning hotel bills and pampered deportees, this week proved what we at the TPA have been saying for a long time about how broken and expensive the UK’s approach to illegal immigration has become. We will keep exposing and commenting on these absurd wastes of taxpayers’ money and calling for a system that puts taxpayers, not illegal migrants, first.

I really wanted to also do Joe Cocker reactions, as firstly, the performances were so passionate and lush, the young reactors in awe of how you actually needed talent back then … plus Steve B has a chart quiz in which one of the three numbers features:
I also have these two to run and not sure how I can fit them in today:
The thing with the Baskerville copy is it’s clear and HD … perfect for a Sunday or Monday Mat. But the Minder is shorter and more topical … especially in the light of Huntingdon. Decisions, decisions, help me out.
“All Souls’ Day, also called The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed, is a day of prayer and remembrance for the faithful departed, observed by Christians on 2 November. In Western Christianity, including Roman Catholicism and certain parts of Lutheranism and Anglicanism, All Souls’ Day is the third day of Allhallowtide, after All Saints’ Day (1 November) and All Hallows’ Eve (31 October). Before the standardization of Western Christian observance on 2 November by St. Odilo of Cluny in the 10th century, many Roman Catholic congregations celebrated All Souls’ Day on various dates during the Easter season as it is still observed in the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Eastern Catholic churches and the Eastern Lutheran churches. Churches of the East Syriac Rite (Assyrian Church of the East, Ancient Church of the East, Syro-Malabar Catholic Church, Chaldean Catholic Church), (Syriac Catholic Church). commemorate all the faithful departed on the Friday before Lent. As with other days of the Allhallowtide season, popular practices for All Souls’ Day include attending Mass offered for the souls of the faithful departed, as well as Christian families visiting graveyards in order to pray and decorate their family graves with garlands, flowers, candles and incense. Given that many Christian cemeteries are interdenominational in nature, All Souls’ Day observances often have an ecumenical dimension, with believers from various Christian denominations praying together and cooperating to adorn graves.” (Wiki)
That’s better than I could have put it … it’s more ecumenical than All Hallows, it’s reverent towards our forebears, our fallen forces personnel, just about all in our lineage, except the baddies of course.

a) The Left Lie 1. The French Interior Minister and former Paris Police Prefect Laurent Nunez has filed a defamation lawsuit against four members of the hard-left, accusing them of falsely claiming that “the police kill”.
b) The Left Lie 2. LFI MP Abdelkader Lahmar claims to be “the son of people murdered by the French army” in Algeria… seemingly forgetting that he was born in 1971….
c) If Britain’s establishment parties had any sense, they’d spend taxpayer cash on detention centres for illegal migrants, not hotels.
d) The film “Sacré-Cœur” is an unexpected success. The initiative is quite unusual: the former singer of a boy band [Steven Gunnell] who was popular in the 1990s converted to Catholicism and has just made a documentary glorifying the Sacred Heart.
e) The return of the ‘Ladies only’ carriages on the French railways? Following an attempted rape by a migrant on the RER C commuter train….
