Because there 'intelligence' is of the kind that hasn't been earned through hard work, trial and error or general risk. It was parroted to them from their social/media/geñder/africàn studies lecturer where their only test of intelligence was whether they could read it and correctly parrot it back without deviation. All they had to do to get their first was provide a written confirmation bias to their lefty lecturer that they read and understood his/her version of events.

The readiness of the courts to hear legal actions against the Prime Minister’s suspension of Parliament is a whole new outrage. Personally, I think Al Johnson’s action was a shabby trick (though it failed to work).


But the idea that the courts should have anything to say about proroguing Parliament is absurd.


There is no law, no precedent. Within our constitution, Prime Ministers can do this sort of thing and often it will be right and necessary.


You might as well get the Supreme Court to rule on whether the red wines of Burgundy are better than those of Bordeaux. The judges could have a lot of fun examining the matter. But their opinion, at the end, would be worth nothing.

In some ways, the extremism of the new transgender ideology also risks becoming homophobic. Instead of seeing effeminate men as one kind of masculinity, as legitimate as any other, transgenderism insists that girliness requires being a biological girl. Similarly, a tomboy is not allowed to expand the bandwidth of what being female can mean, but must be put into the category of male. In my view, this is not progressive; it’s deeply regressive. There’s a reason why Iran is a world leader in sex-reassignment surgery, and why the mullahs pay for it. Homosexuality in Iran is so anathema that gay boys must be turned into girls, and lesbian girls into boys, to conform to heterosexual norms. Sound a little too familiar?
