A fair result
FOOTBALL’S ruling body has finally seen common sense and shown the red card to the gender madness infecting sport.
The FA’s announcement yesterday that from playing in female teams is a victory for millions who enjoy the beautiful game.
But why did it take a to bring woke officials to their senses? is a physical game and trans women are generally stronger than biological women. That’s a simple fact.
It is especially scandalous that it is those who voiced concerns about men in women’s spaces who were punished.
Only a few months ago, an autistic teenage footballer was hit with a six-match ban after asking a bearded opponent: “Are you a man?”;
Even after top judges ruled that a woman is defined by biological sex, agonised long enough to put VAR decision-makers to shame.
Yesterday’s action — swiftly followed by the England and Wales Cricket Board — is better late than never, and will be welcomed by members of the 12,150 women and girls teams.
Now the FA should make amends — starting with an apology.
Total let-off
MINISTERS argue as a way of punishing offenders.
With jails bursting at the seams, they have urged to make criminals do unpaid work cleaning up graffiti, clearing litter in parks or helping charities.
Thousands convicted of everything from fraud and drug offences to robbery and violence are dealt with in this way.
But now we learn not only are offenders avoiding , but many dodge the softer alternative sentence — with more than an estimated two million hours of such work not performed last year.
Is it too much to ask our court and probation workers to do their job — and make sure offenders serve their sentence?
Priorities, PM
WHY is Sir so at the top of his in-tray?
The PM was quick to call for drama Adolescence to be shown in every school, yet was coy when asked if the same should apply to a about the real-life rape and abuse of thousands of girls by men of mainly Pakistani heritage.
Sir Keir has not only ruled out a full public inquiry but has now burdened the official in charge of the scaled-down probe with a second role reviewing the Government’s social care policy.
The grooming scandal not only destroyed the lives of those poor children, it is a stain on our nation.
The PM should use the levers of power at his disposal to get to the bottom of this — not leave it to TV to uncover the facts.
