Month: May 2026

The Reform Party has announced a policy of building migrant detention centres in areas with Green Party MPs or which are under Green Party council control. Carl Benjamin, founder & host of Lotus Eaters and Michael Murphy, head of journalism at Outpost Studios join us to discuss.

Reform UK is on course for a landmark haul of seats in the 2026 local elections, with party chairman David Bull telling the BBC the party’s ascent had been “meteoric.”

Bull said voters on the doorstep were declaring “two party politics are dead” and that both Labour and the Conservatives were “in trouble.”

He told the BBC that anything between 800 and 900 English seats would constitute a “great night,” with 1,000 representing “a measure of success.”

He insisted the vote — local in name only — should be read as “a referendum on the Labour Party.”

At the time of writing Sky News reported 11 seats for Reform, against 11 losses for Labour including in former bastions such as Chorley, and Runcorn and Helsby indicating the northern Red Wall was indeed falling to Nigel Farage‘s party.

The losses are already mounting — a Labour insider conceded to the BBC that Tameside, a council the party has controlled without interruption since 1979, had fallen.

A Reform source declared to the Sun on Sunday: “The Red Wall is crumbling and turning Reform tonight.”

How are the Conservatives faring in the 2026 local elections?

On the Conservative benches, shadow transport secretary Richard Holden conceded “significant losses” were inevitable, without being drawn on specific numbers.

He struck a more optimistic note on Badenoch’s personal ratings, saying she was registering “positive” feedback from voters.

A popular V-Tuber who was recently arrested for possessing indecent non-photographic images of children has been revealed as a trans-identified male. Jordan Williams, also known as “Alexandra Williams” or Mimi Yanagi, was exposed by keen investigators on controversial forum KiwiFarms.

Controversy surrounding Williams first exploded last week after a post was made to his X account revealing that he had been arrested in the UK on April 20 and had been forced to migrate to a new account as a condition of his bail.

“On Monday April 20th, Mimi was arrested by the UK Police for possession of her artwork, and her artwork alone. She’s currently on bail pending the outcome of a criminal investigation into her accounts and activities. All of her devices were seized as a result of the arrest,” the post read.

Williams was known for writing in the third-person as part of his child-like “Mimi Yanagi” persona.

The post went on to note that the new account was required by police to contain his legal name of Alexandra Williams, and that posts to that account had to be entirely “safe for work” in nature.

A friend of Williams’ later posted redacted copies of his bail documents in an effort to prove the announcement was real and not a fabricated story for viral attention.

The documents, which explicitly detailed conditions which involved not having any unsupervised contact with children, were posed next to a children’s stuffed animal.

so i was getting these questions a lot regarding mimi's arrest, and with her permission, i have her bail bond form right here.

sadly yes gamers. she was arrested for her commissions, and is being treated like she did something to a real kid.

While the exact charges are censored, it is known that Williams was charged under the Coroners and Justice Act 2009, a law which makes it illegal to possess “prohibited images of a child,” including cartoons, drawings, and computer-generated material deemed pornographic and obscene. Crucially, the law does not require a real victim—images can be prosecuted if a reasonable viewer would interpret the subject as under 18.

Prior to his arrest, Williams was a popular V-Tuber who presented himself through the avatar of a young, pink-haired girl and led most of his followers to believe he was female. He frequently commissioned highly-sexual artwork of his Mimi Yanagi persona and posted it for his followers on multiple platforms.

Williams’ story sparked international debate, with many rushing to his defense and claiming that the arrest would put a chill on freedom of artistic expression, regardless of the content. Multiple large accounts argued that it did not matter that Williams frequently depicted his child-like avatar in an extremely sexual manner, and dismissed accusations of “pedophilia” by deferring to the “loli” subculture.

“Loli,” short for lolicon, traces its name loosely to Victor Nabokov’s 1958 novel Lolita but developed its own meaning within anime and manga subculture. Originating in Japan in the late 20th century, it refers to stylized depictions of young or childlike female characters, often in sexualized and lewd ways.

Critics of the subculture note that sexualizing even animated representations of children is inherently pedophilic and concerning. Strong critics of “loli” include Schlep, a Texas-based Roblox YouTuber known for exposing child predators on the platform through sting operations. Schlep once noted that significant amount of predators he caught ended up being in possession of fantasy child erotica.

Lolicon is pedophilia. If you gratify yourself to sexualized images of animated children you’re a predator

the fact X allows a community of these people to thrive on here is very shocking. Do better @Safety https://t.co/qekaWT8OCl

Proponents of the subculture, however, often go to great lengths to harass those who criticize their enjoyment of sexualized child-like characters, and defend their “hobby” as being a victimless indulgence. They also claim that it is wrong to criminalize those found in possession of animated sexual depictions of children.

One of the most prominent names defending Williams was ChibiReviews, a popular YouTuber who frequently defends “loli” artwork on that basis. ChibiReviews framed Williams as a victim of a police state, and told his followers that Williams had been “arrested for drawings.” ChibiReviews, along with a number of Williams’ supporters, believed him to be female as that is how he presented himself online.

I want to make a long statement here on the events about the VTuber Mimi that got arrested for artwork

You can find the artwork that got her into trouble disgusting and outright weird. I have always had this stance on content. However advocating for the censorship of it is… pic.twitter.com/WaeVklae7C

But new information on Williams uncovered by users at KiwiFarms has put a damper on the narrative that he was arrested for simple, harmless artwork.

A number of KiwiFarms users banded together to contribute to a massive thread exposing Williams as a trans-identified male whose birth name was Jordan and is from the South West of England. Back-tracing Williams’ past social media handles, the users found Jordan’s old Reddit accounts where he discusses his transgender identity.

The Reddit history revealed Williams was an ardent anti-feminist and had a particular disdain for women who did not support gender ideology.

“The current wave of ‘transphobia’ is basically being created by a group calling themselves ‘Gender Critical’,” Williams wrote while using the name NebulaMink. “They’re a collective clique of ‘radical feminists’ who hold a strictly essentialist view on gender/sex.”

He continued: “GC’ers do not do good faith debate. They’re a community so toxic other Feminist subreddits often ban their members on sight. They fundamentally see trans people, especially trans women, as fundamentally inferior, and some of their literature has called for transgender people to be ‘morally mandated out of existence’. That’s where most of the anger and lashing out comes from. A whole lot of vulnerable people being forced to defend their right to exist from a group that’s more than happy to roll back decades of progress (and often sides with far-right elements to do so) out of pure malice.”

At one point, Williams participated in harassing the PCOS subreddit after accusing it of harboring transphobic members, and called upon the moderators of the subreddit to ban women who appeared transphobic.

In another post Williams made to Reddit in 2020, he suggested “going after Mumsnet” to fully deprive British women critical of gender ideology a space to discuss their concerns with trans-identified males.

In addition to posting anti-feminist content, Williams identified with the MGTOW movement, and once wrote: “I am attracted to women, but resist the urge to act on the attraction as I know the risks outweigh the benefits. In addition, I know there are bad men and good women. The difference is that bad men are thoroughly reviled and condemned, whilst bad women are usually given a pass by society at large.”

Williams ran an account on a Mastodon server that intersects with a community colloquially known among its members as the “pediverse,” where he connected with various “lolicon” artists and commissioned them for highly disturbing child pornography images.

The drawings are explicitly sexual and show the pink-haired childlike Mimi character in various situations of abuse.

Some of the content commissioned by Williams involved an animated short video depicting child rape, while most images included scenarios involving his young female child character being sexually abused by animals or monsters.

Williams also operated an account on the Japanese social networking service known as Pixiv, which is intended as an online community for illustrators and manga creators. Pixiv is a popular website for hosting the illustrated child pornography that is shared among members of the pediverse.

On Pixiv, Williams had bookmarked thousands of images of illustrated and animated child pornography.

On Pixiv’s subscription-based forum, Fanbox, Williams had saved images with incestuous themes, and of preschool children being raped. He also followed an account dedicated solely to infants being raped, and added one of the horrific drawings to his “favorites” folder. Several of the accounts followed by Williams on Fanbox promoted the illustrations by using the hashtag #pedo, and one account featured pornographic drawings of a real child actress.

Both Pixiv and Fanbox are Japanese websites, and are known for hosting a trove of animated and 3D-generated child sexual abuse material. Such content is legal in Japan, where the possession of sexual abuse material involving real children was only criminalized in 2014. While Japan briefly considered extending that ban to animated depictions of child sexual abuse, publishing and manga industry organizations led protests demanding that artwork of children being sexually abused be exempted from any laws intended to crack down on pedophilic images.

Since being exposed as a trans-identified male, some former supporters of Williams have walked back their support.

ChibiReviews, who previously ardently defended Williams on the basis of supporting his right to access sexualized depictions of children, made a post today announcing he had change his mind.

“I think after seeing what evidence that was provided. I have found my limit to Anti-Censorship on this topic,” ChibiReviews wrote in reference to the KiwiFarms thread, though did not seem to specify why some sexualized artistic depictions of children were defensible in his opinion, while others are not.

I actually saw some tweets on this the other day, but since I couldn’t find an actual news report source to confirm it, I passed it by. As it turns out though, it was in fact a completely true story, with bigger outlets picking up on it now: Denmark is punishing its senior citizens in nursing homes by revoking their meat privileges almost entirely, because they “screwed up the most” with the climate.

Per an item from the New York Post, the new guidelines issued by the Danish government, which either already took effect or are set to take effect (it’s not clear exactly which) at “government-run sites” in Copenhagen, restrict the consumption of meat to just 2.8 ounces per week, which works out to be less than half-an-ounce per day (.4 ounces). For context, that’s the weight of 4–5 pennies, or about a bite of meat.

Now some of those “government-run sites” include elderly care facilities, and when a proposal to exclude the old folks from the new guidelines came up for debate, Birgitte Kehler Holst, a leftist politician dissented, saying the elderly should be “punished” with the measure, because they are “precisely the generation that has screwed up the most.”

It’s important to recognize where we’re at, because we’re edging closer to a Soylent Green or Torching the Dusties world.

Now, I completely get the anger and resentment for particular generations in general—I really do—but that should not apply to the individuals, and it should not translate into abusive and unjust punishment. It’s how I feel when someone who had the opportunity to buy a Sears mansion kit home for $10k and spend 40 years building wealth because things were affordable tells me to “quit bitchin’” about high gas prices, accept amnesty “compromises,” or pull myself up by my bootstraps, having no clue how hard I work to just barely make ends meet. It’s also how I feel with my own millennial generation when I remember that a significant number of them vote Democrat, when I see mothers my age taking their young children to “drag” brunches to be sexualized by pedophilic men because they’re happy to sacrifice their flesh and blood for wokester credentials, or when they play activist for movements that foment total chaos (open borders, mass migration, BLM, etc.).

We’ve all got our complaints and issues with one another, but that should never be the root of government policy—government should be based on objective morality and justice. Of course, I’m not offering a great comparison because Holst’s anger and resentment isn’t even founded in reality, but in her mind, it is. And that delusion is propelling the West toward democide.

So that’s where we’re at, at the precipice of the democide cliff, and it’s up to us to rein things back in and restore sanity and righteousness to the public square.

Muslims in Britain are far more likely to hold positive opinions of terrorist groups in the Middle East, Antisemitic attitudes towards Jewish people, support blasphemy laws, and see their religion as more important than their national identity, a report has found.

The “Understanding Islamopopulism” report from the Policy Exchange think tank has cast doubt over the feasibility of successfully integrating the four million plus Muslims into broader British society and democratic system. The report found that UK Muslims are increasingly favouring single-issue pro-Gaza politicians over the left-wing Labour Party, which they hitherto largely supported.

However, polling conducted for the firm of over 1,000 Muslims last month by JL Partners found that the group appears to be significantly out of step with the British public as a whole on major dividing issues. The report questioned if the rise of “Islamopopulism” could result in the voting bloc becoming so “toxic” that larger parties may fear aligning themselves with British Muslims. The report also suggested that contrary blocs, such as conservative or Hindu voters, may coalesce around opposing candidates backed by Islamopopulist forces.

The survey of UK Muslim adults “found concerning levels of favourable feelings towards terrorist organisations which have been proscribed by the Home Office.” For instance, the poll found that one in four British Muslims hold a positive view of the Palestinian Hamas terrorists behind the October 7th terror attacks on Israel. Meanwhile, the survey found that 23 per cent held a favourable view of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which has been behind the proliferation of terror throughout the Middle East, 16 per cent held a favourable view of the so-called Islamic State (ISIS), and 15 per cent held a favourable view of Al-Qaeda.

The report also found large “differences between the general population and the British Muslims living in these areas when it comes to their perception of Jews and whether they have considerable power over key spheres of British life such as politics, media, and banking, with the British Muslim respondents being far more likely to believe that Jewish people are too powerful in general.”

While just 11 per cent of the general public in Britain said they held an unfavourable opinion of Jews, Muslim respondents were far more likely to hold a negative view of Jews, at 21 per cent. Additionally, 45 per cent said that Jews have too much power in the media, 43 per cent said that they hold too much power in the weapons manufacturing industry, and 42 per cent said that they have too much power in the banking system.

On top of having radically different views on Jews or Middle Eastern terror groups, the report found that there is a “considerable gap between the general population sample and the British Muslim respondents in the polled areas in terms of their views on making it a criminal offence to show or create images in public which depict the Muslim Prophet Muhammad.”

While 17 per cent of the public as a whole would be in favour of creating such a blasphemy law, over half of Muslims in the UK would want to criminalise the depiction of the Islamic prophet. Additionally, 63 per cent of UK Muslims would make it a criminal offence to burn a copy of the Qur’an.

Perhaps most concerningly, 24 per cent of British Muslims said that it would be a “legitimate response” to violently attack someone who was burning the Qur’an or showing images depicting their prophet. Meanwhile, less than half of British Muslims said that violence would never be an acceptable response.

The UK Muslim population is also more likely to see their religious identity as more central than their British national identity, with 63 per cent of Muslims ranking their religious identity as most important to them, compared to just 12 per cent of the public as a whole. Conversely, 43 per cent of Britons ranked their national identity as most important, compared to 12 per cent of UK Muslims.

This perhaps explains the propensity of UK Muslims to rank Islamic issues, such as Gaza or Islamophobia, as critical to who they vote for. The survey found that a quarter of British Muslims ranked Gaza as the most important issue in the upcoming local elections across the UK, despite local councillors having no power to impact the Middle East situation whatsoever.

Over one in five, 22 per cent, of UK Muslims also listed “Islamophobia” as their top issue heading into this week’s elections.

Commenting on the findings, the co-author of the report, Dr Rakib Ehsan, said: “The portrayal of modern Britain as a flourishing multi-faith democracy – a paragon of religious diversity – simply no longer holds. In the face of Islamist extremism, which remains the country’s principal terror threat, the UK continues to be presented with significant challenges in terms of cohesion, integration, and security.”

Germany’s right-wing AfD party has submitted a controversial proposal to parliament aimed at better reflecting differences in delinquency between ethnic Germans and those who have a “migrant background” in official crime statistics.

The party is demanding changes to the national Police Crime Statistics (PKS), an annual report by the federal police that compiles all crimes reported in Germany – as well as data on suspects and victims.

Currently, the PKS only differentiates between German and non-German suspects.

The AfD would like to see the more detailed information on the origins of crime suspects included in the statistics.

Moreover, the right-wingers also suggest that the PKS should reflect a potential “migrant background” of German suspects – for example through naturalisation or recently immigrated parents – as well as information on suspects with dual citizenship.

AfD MP Martin Hess – a police officer – said during the debate in the Bundestag yesterday that the goal was to provide an accurate picture of the crime burden of individual groups, in order to come up with suitable security measures.

“The parameters of the PKS must be amended so that the actual impact of uncontrolled mass migration on our security is reflected transparently,” he said.

Hess bemoans that currently, the detailed numbers – while available – have had to be specifically requested in parliament by the AfD.

These numbers exhibit worrying trends. In April, for example, it was revealed that Syrians and Afghans in Germany were eight times as likely to be suspects of violent crimes as locals.

Hess added: “Our motion calls for these figures to be included directly in the PKS in future, so that citizens can see at a glance where the main problem lies.

“For the truth is this: Violence in Germany is fundamentally linked to migration from certain countries, particularly from the Middle East and Africa and this must finally be clearly presented and articulated and appropriate action must be taken,” he said.

The motion caused harsh opposition from Germany’s left-wing parties.

Luigi Partisano, an MP for hard-left party Die Linke, accused the AfD of being “full of convicted inciters of hatred and tax evaders” and asked Hess what he, being a police officer, would do against racial profiling and crimes against “humans with a migrant history” by German police.

Greens party MP Irene Mihailac accused the AfD of “sowing distrust” and “spreading dangerous ideology” with its “biologistic” view of being German. Mihailac also cautioned against “politically instrumentalising” the PKS.

Frederik Bouffier, an MP for the conservative Christian Democrat Union (CDU) of Chancellor Friedrich Merz, accused Hess of “painting a black-and-white picture” and “blaming foreigners for everything”.

Bouffier conceded, though, that “a certain group is overrepresented” in the PKS.

After an emotional debate, the AfD’s motion was referred to the relevant parliamentary committees for further consideration.

A young woman, who was intoxicated, was followed into a public toilet in the 18th arrondissement of Paris and assaulted at 5 a.m. on May 3. A police patrol had noted the man’s behavior, namely that he appeared to be following the women with ill intent. 

According to Europe1, the officers observed the individual gradually approaching the victim, eventually following her into a public restroom, where he proceeded to rape her. The police found the restroom door slightly open and witnessed the perpetrator, with his trousers down, forcing her into a sexual act.

The BAC (Anti-Crime Brigade) officers intervened and arrested him on the spot. Fdesouche has reported that the man was born in Morocco. He was placed in deferred police custody due to his condition, and an investigation was opened for rape.

The victim, who was also intoxicated, was taken to a sobering-up cell pending her hearing.

It is unknown if the Moroccan was present legally in France or not.

The case mirrors a similar case from years ago in Paris, where an American tourist was raped inside a public toilet while her boyfriend waited for her nearby, unaware of the rape taking place.

Just a few days ago, a Syrian migrant was arrested for trying to rape a 15-year-old girl on a high-speed German train’s public restroom as well. Remix News also reported this month on a German youth who said he was raped in a school toilet by five Syrians during his school years.

Remix News has followed violent crimes, including rape, perpetrated by foreigners on French soil for years, with rapes of both young and old women spanning the country from Lille,Vannes and Toulouse to La Penne-sur-Huveaune and Paris. There have even been sexual assaults on animals.

The increasingly popular Nationally Rally, led by Jordan Bardella, has been calling for increased migration controls and deportations in the face of rising crime stats in regard to foreign, often illegal, perpetrators.

Two years ago, Remix News reported on the response from local rap groups to Bardella and former RN leader Marine Le Pen’s call for a stricter migration policy: a video featuring ultra-violent lyrics against the party, calling for the two politicians to be beaten and killed. “Marine and Marion the whores, beat these female dogs in heat with a stick. “Jodan, you’re dead.” “If the fascists come by, I’m going out with a big caliber,” went the lyrics.

Far-left politician Jean-Luc Mélenchon, leader of La france Insoumise (LFI) has vowed to destroy RN in his run for French president, with his official campaign just announced this week.

The latest poll cited by Europe Elects shows National Rally with a healthy lead at 33 percent versus LFI’s 12 percent. Gabriel Attal, of Macron’s Renaissance party, is in second with 14 percent, and Bruno Retailleau, of The Republicans, at 13 percent.

The controversy surrounding the banquets organised by Le Canon français shows no sign of abating. The initiative, launched by two young entrepreneurs to revive traditional banquets centred on culinary specialities from across France, has come under fire from the press and the Left on the grounds that it perpetuates an ideology of exclusion and promotes far-right ideas. The rector of the Paris Mosque has spoken out publicly to, in turn, attack these festive gatherings which bring together several thousand enthusiastic guests in towns and cities across France.

In a video dated April 29th, Chems-Eddine Haffiz, rector of the Paris Mosque—who, given his official position, is regarded as a kind of spokesman for Islam in France—lashed out at the Canon français and its banquets: the fact that it celebrates a cuisine featuring pork, he claimed, is proof of a logic of exclusion. He condemns the “4,000 guests gathered around a spit-roasted pig” and accuses them of “symbolically” excluding those who do not share this cuisine—that is to say, Muslims.

His statement was met with outraged reactions from right-wing politicians, as well as from ordinary “canonniers”, as the participants in these popular feasts are known.

The conservative mayor of Chalon-sur-Saône, Gilles Platret, took offence at Haffiz’s statement, describing the rector’s outburst as “delusional.” “We have the right to celebrate without being accused of exclusion,” he pointed out, whilst announcing his intention to host a banquet in his Burgundy town soon. On social media, Platret accuses Haffiz of being “a mouthpiece for the dictator Tebboune” and questions the rector’s true motives:

What is he after? To ban banquets where the food served isn’t halal? This is a dangerous trend that I would describe as seditious, as it is likely to accelerate the process of communal conflict. Which, incidentally, would not be unwelcome in Algiers.

On May 5th, MEP Marion Maréchal also reacted on X, pointing out that there is nothing exclusive about eating pork, but that it is one of the oldest and most fundamental ingredients in French cuisine, throughout the country:

We are in France: here, we eat pork in all its forms, always and everywhere. If that doesn’t suit you, you’re free to go and live elsewhere, for example, in a country that applies Sharia law.

Much to the chagrin of the organisers, who refuse to be politicised against their will, the banquets are now at the heart of an intense political battle—not to say a clash of civilisations.

It is a fact that French cuisine has celebrated pork in all its forms for centuries: sausages and saucissons, boudin, sauerkraut, terrines and pâtés have reigned supreme on French tables since time immemorial and are an integral part of the national consciousness. A saying well known to gourmets and peasants alike proudly declares that “everything in the pig is good” (tout est bon dans le cochon). Not a single region, from north to south, from Brittany to Alsace, lacks a pork-based recipe among its specialities. Since the Middle Ages, the motif of the pig has been omnipresent in both sacred and secular iconography, proof of the royal status it holds in the French imagination. We see it being reared in oak forests; we delight in the folk festival honouring its slaughter, a promise of culinary delights once the animal has been prepared.

It is not just in cinema that it takes centre stage in plots, as in a masterpiece such as La Traversée de Paris, whose story revolves around the perilous transport of a freshly slaughtered pig through the German-occupied city.

With all due respect to the rector of the Paris Mosque, a ‘pig-themed’ festival excludes no one. Those who do not eat it are simply not obliged to come, just as no one is obliged to attend a rock concert if they only like baroque music (or the reverse). The fact that the consumption of pork is now perceived as a factor of exclusion speaks volumes about the mental confusion and the militancy of some.

A trans-identified male freshman from an elite school in California won the Women’s Varsity 400-meter race at the Prep League Championship Finals last week, defeating a number of more experienced female athletes to the title, including his own sister.

Paul Haaga, also known as “Lina,” won the girls’ final with a time of 59.45 seconds. His older sister, Sienna, finished second with 60.03 seconds.

Haaga attends the elite Polytechnic School in Pasadena, where tuition fees can reach $48,000 or more per year, while his sister attends the neighboring Flintridge Preparatory School. Haaga also helped his team take gold in the Women’s Varsity 4 x 400 relay to clinch first place by just under a second, once again pushing his sister into second place.

Despite only being a 14-year-old freshman, Haaga has already established himself as a strong competitor within multiple girls’ athletic disciplines.

Along with competing in track, he was described as “one of the key singles players” for the school in girls tennis, and has also tried his hand at basketball, swimming, lacrosse, and water polo. Haaga has participated on female teams and in female sports since his earliest years due to being transitioned at a very young age.

Haaga has been vocal about his demands to be included in girls’ sports. Speaking to The Guardian in January, when the debate around trans-identified athletes competing at the school or college level reached the Supreme Court, Haaga said that sports was his “life,” functioning as not just “a release and an escape, but also a way to connect with other people and make new friends.”

He claimed that any ban on trans-identified male athletes in female sports would make him “uncomfortable” and that it would result in him being “robbed” of the friends and opportunities he’s made in girl’s athletics.

Haaga claimed that the “political climate” on the trans sports question means that he now has to “worry every time [he steps] on the track or the court that somebody might disagree with [his] participation,” which he described as “really scary,” as he would have a “moment of bliss” stolen from him.

“We’re not trying to be monsters, or predators, or anything malevolent, we’re just trying to enjoy what we do, and we’re just trying to enjoy that release, and we’re just trying to find connection and a team and a community to support us,” he continued.

Despite Haaga positioning himself as belonging to an oppressed minority, he comes from a well-connected and wealthy family. His grandfather, Paul Haaga Jr., was at one time the acting President and CEO of NPR, which often takes a strong pro-trans line in their coverage, and is also a former trustee of the Facebook Oversight Board.

In a statement to Reduxx, a representative from HeCheated, an independent platform that tracks male participation in female sports, expressed frustration and disbelief that Haaga displaced his own sister in a girls competition.

“In instances where girls are denied fair competition and consequently lose titles and opportunities to boys, they should be able to rely on their families for support, even if the school administration opposes them,” the representative said. “While it is not uncommon for parents to favor a son over a daughter, this case presents an especially nightmarish situation in which the daughter has no familial support and no one to stand up for her right to be recognized as a deserving champion.”

In April of last year, Reduxx reported on the case of Charlie Rothenberger, a then 17-year-old student at Champlin Park High School in Minnesota, who, like Haaga, was transitioned by his parents at an extremely early age. Rothenberger, known as Marissa, was credited with helping his school’s team dominate at softball, playing as a starting pitcher for their fastpitch team.

Unlike Haaga, Rothenberger attempted to conceal his transgender status and many of his teammates and competitors were completely unaware that he was a boy.

One former teammate told Reduxx she thought he was just an “awkward” girl for many years, and that looking back on the fact that Rothenberger shared female facilities and bathrooms with them, “disgusted” her. 

“Many players and I work so hard to achieve something through this sport and we find it unfair that our spot can be stolen from us,” the girl said. “This shouldn’t be allowed and boys can stay in boys sports and leave us girls alone.”

This February, 16-year-old sophomore student Kallie Keeler alleged that she was unknowingly matched up against a biological male in a girls’ wrestling competition in Washington, who proceeded to sexually assault her during the course of the match. In a video taken by her mother, Keeler’s face can be seen quickly twisting into an expression of panic and confusion. At one point, Keeler is visibly attempting to communicate something to her mother, who couldn’t initially understand her. Keeler later clarified that she had been saying: “Her fingers are in my (vagina).” Keeler let her opponent win the bout quickly to just get it over.

Her opponent, Taufa’ase’e Tei, also known as Trixie Tei, wrote on Instagram that it was “exhausting” to have to “constantly defend” his existence as a trans-identified man. “I didn’t choose to be different, I chose to be honest. I deserve respect, safety, and love just like any other girl. Even when the world feels harsh, my life still has value, and my voice still deserves to be heard,” Tei said on his now-deleted account.

Nurseries in Wales have been instructed to report incidents of toddlers engaging in “racist” behaviour to the police in accordance to taxpayer-funded guidelines backed by the Welsh Labour-run British government.

The guidelines are reported to contain a extensive list of instructions for childcare workers to respond to “racist incidents” involving babies, toddlers, and children bellow the age of 12 and assess if an event would constitute a “hate crime” before reporting the case to the British police. It is stated the instructions’ ultimate goals is to turn childcare centres into “anti-racist” environments in accordance to a series of woke initiatives and precepts spearheaded by the leftist government in the devolved Welsh regional parliament.

The Telegraph detailed that some of the “anti-racist” instructions listed in the guidelines include calling the UK’s 999 emergency number or speaking to the police about the “racist” incident and taking actions alongside law enforcement while ensuring that all records of the incident are detailed. Should an event not be deemed as a “hate crime” the childcare workers are instead urged to take other actions, such as offering “age-appropriate learning support opportunities for the perpetrator” or refer to a flow chart to explore disciplinary routes should the toddlers involved exhibit “resistance.”

The text asks workers to question how much they “understand what unconscious biases are” and how competent they perceive themselves on addressing or reporting “racism among children/adults.” A risk assessment may be undertaken against the ‘threat of racism,” within the context of what the guidelines reportedly define as a “changing political context” and “racist demonstrations taking place across the UK.”

The guidelines reportedly state that, since the Welsh childcare workforce is overwhelmingly white, nearly all of the staff will have have “the privilege of not having to think about the day-to-day microaggressions and systemic and institutional racism.”

The document also contains a series of woke diversity-related directives, and suggests that childcare staff ask themselves how well do they understand “what white privilege is” and how it can affect their lives and that of others.

Childcare staff is instructed to ensure that child spaces contain books, dolls, posters, and other items that are “suitably diverse” and which make their “anti-racist” stance visible all the way — down to even what available snacks there are at the centre. Additionally, it suggests to workers that “toileting practices vary across cultures,” asserting, “These practices may be very different from your own, but it does not make them unsanitary or incorrect.”

“Use this range of resources daily to give children the opportunity to explore diversity in a positive, supportive and playful way,” the guidelines reportedly read, per The Telegraph.

The guidelines are part of the broader ongoing efforts of Wales’ leftist government to achieve an “anti-racist nation” by 2030. Launched in 2024, the programme says it is moving Wales towards building an “inclusive and equitable society for all our Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic people and communities in Wales.”

In that same year, the Welsh government funded and launched an “anti-racist” set of guidelines for local child care centres developed by organisations including the Diversity and Anti-Racist Professional Learning organization (DARPL).

Since 2021, DARLP has reportedly received more than £1.3m from the Welsh Government. Former Welsh Mental Health and Early Years leader Jayne Briant praised DARLP and CWLWM’s work to progress the Welsh government’s anti-racist plan goals during a 2024 conference, where she stressed that her work included “embedding” anti-racist principles the curriculum and provision, training educators and practitioners to “recognize and challenge their own biases, and creating environments that celebrate diversity and promote inclusion.”
