PLATELL’S PEOPLE: How dare young woke women try to cancel us feminists

>

There was near universal outrage over transgender double rapist ‘Isla Bryson’, formerly Adam Graham, who was sent to a Scottish women’s prison.

Yes, this person claims to have started hormone replacement therapy as part of her ‘transition’ to living as a woman, but only after being arrested. He, I won’t call him ‘she’ out of respect for her victims, remains in full possession of the male genitalia.

Bryson’s estranged wife, Shonna, said her husband’s violent and controlling transition was “outwitting the authorities” to avoid a men’s prison. “He never said anything to me about feeling like he was in the wrong body,” she said. ‘Will one of the vulnerable prisoners be the next victim attacked by him? She won’t stop, it’s in her nature.

It was only after a fierce public backlash that Nicola Sturgeon, who had championed a bill to make it easier for people to ‘self-identify’ as the opposite sex, capitulated, saying the rapist would not serve his sentence in a women’s prison after all.

However, the debate about trans people and women’s spaces continues.

Time and again in recent years, young people (many of them, oddly enough, women) have argued to me that any man has the right, in almost any circumstance, to identify himself as a woman. They call me ‘cis’, or even worse, ‘Terf’, the insult they always throw at those of us who defend women.

It makes my blood boil. It was feminists like me who fought against sexist dinosaurs for decades and in so many areas. The young women of today can hardly imagine how difficult it was to win the path that we opened for them. Now they can have satisfying careers and do whatever they want in a man’s world.

How often do you hear young women campaign for justice for the 600,000 women who are sexually assaulted or raped each year? Or the shameful way in which only 1.6 percent of reported rapes lead to suspects being charged, let alone convicted?

No, Millennials and Gen Z are more interested in inflating their ‘inclusive’ credentials by canceling their seniors than by speaking up for women.

I have all my sympathy for anyone who believes they were born in the wrong body and wishes to transition.

But vocal youth have lost sight of what it really entails to be a biological woman, and are therefore slowly erasing what it means to be a woman.

Get over it, Alice

Who deserves more sympathy in the bitter divorce between Ioan Gruffudd and Alice Evans? His two little daughters.

Alice now faces arrest after failing to appear in court in Los Angeles to answer two counts of violating her restraining order.

Yes, it is beyond heartbreaking when a husband leaves for someone else.

But for the sake of her children, Alice simply has to control herself and get over it.

Toru Ueda, 32, who spent £19,000 on an ultra-realistic wolf costume, says living as his lupine alter ego is a dream come true. Now I am free of all human relationships. You don’t say!

Please buy Penny a fan, Rod.

Penny Lancaster, aka Mrs Rod Stewart, is upset that the government has dropped the idea of ​​’menopause passports’ that give women time off work. Others think that the last thing we middle-aged working women need is to be marginalized thanks to the special pleas of others.

A ‘disheartened’ Penny states that ‘three out of four women have symptoms’ such as hot flashes. Can’t someone pass a fan to the woman?

Meanwhile, Rod is having his own old age crisis, after calling Sky to tell him he’s no longer a Tory and the reins of power should be handed over to Labour? Offering to pay for 20 diagnostic scans on the NHS sounds generous, but I prefer George Michael’s approach. After his death, we learned that he had regularly called TV shows and offered to help people in crisis, including paying for a woman’s entire IVF treatment, on one condition: he remained anonymous.

Despite seeing England miss out of the World Cup in the quarter-final, again manager Gareth Southgate admits he considered resigning but felt the team still had a long way to go under his leadership. Of course, nothing to do with his £5m a year pay deal, due for renewal next year. . . Or not.

My moggie Ted was just as confused as I was to learn of new research that can tell if two cats are playing with each other or about to start a cat fight. Ted taught me that it’s not complicated. Soft paw equals playful, claws out means stay away. And I have the scars to prove it.

That’s a big no from me

Britain’s Got Talent’s Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon threatened to leave after learning new judge Bruno Tonioli was earning the same as them (£850,000) despite long spells they have hosted the show.

Amanda has been there for 17 years and Alesha for ten. And the result of all the money from ITV? Some 2.5 million viewers have tuned out.

Matt Lucas and David Walliams are creating a follow-up to their comedy Little Britain, though some of their famous characters will have to go. Flamboyant Desiree (blackface Walliams) rightly retires, as do truculent wheelchair user Andy, ‘the only gay in town’ Daffyd and ‘Thai sweetheart’ Ting Tong. Surely Vicky’s, but no, but’ Pollard is safe, as evidenced by Love Island. Minus a few stones, Vicky would fit right in at the villa.

Lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret has ditched its drab, comfortable closed-back bras for a sexy Valentine’s Day-ready pink range, aimed at ladies of all sizes and ages. Crikey, if a normal middle-aged woman wore any of that, her friend would die of fear or die of laughter.

Westminster Wars

Entering the celebrity jungle for his £320,000 fee while taking his £84,000 MP salary, Matt Hancock promised he would pay a substantial sum to charity. This turns out to be £10,000. Guessing that having left his wife and children, the rest is to pay his alimony bills.

It’s strange that overstuffed haggis Nicola Sturgeon thinks it’s a good idea for the legal drinking age to be lowered to 16 in Scotland. His country already has almost twice the alcohol death rate of anywhere else in the UK.

It is inconceivable that the body of Laura Winham, 38, could have been found in her apartment almost four years after her death.

With schizophrenia and sectioned twice, Laura was ignored by social services and separated from her family, who now want answers. But how is it possible that her nearest and dearest have not asked the authorities why they had not been informed about her health and progress for so long?

Shy Princess Eugenie, tenth in line to the throne, says she is teaching her two-year-old son August to be a climate change activist.

Good luck with that mom, as children often do the opposite of what their parents make them swallow. Let’s hope he ends up as a petrolhead F1 driver.

Even as Eugenie’s disgraced father, Andrew, is being thrown out of his Buck House suite, friends say he vows to void the multimillion-dollar settlement he reached with Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse.

Just as Andy begins his lonely fight back into public life, Ghislaine Maxwell appears from her prison cell, serving 20 years in prison for procuring girls for pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and declaring in her first televised interview that the Prince is her ‘Dear friend’. As Andy might ask: Who needs enemies?
