Peace never comes through weakness. Today, representatives of the U.S. Congress were in Kyiv – a bipartisan delegation – and I am grateful to them for visiting Ukraine at such a difficult time. They asked: what is needed to end the war? The answer must be strong. There must be sanctions under the Lindsey Graham bill, there must be support for Ukraine in protecting lives, and there must be pressure on Russia for its war. And today, there was a conversation between the leaders of America and Russia. A conversation that leads to something different.
Recently, there was a European decision to lift sanctions on Russian oligarchs. Since then, Russian strikes and the torment of people have only increased. This past week alone, there was a brutal Russian missile strike on a residential building in Pryluky, aerial bombs were dropped on Kramatorsk – on ordinary city buses – and there have been constant attacks on Kyiv’s energy infrastructure and on the life-sustaining infrastructure in Dnipro, Kharkiv, Odesa, and our other cities. Dozens of people have been killed and hundreds wounded.
The Russians are compensating for their inability to achieve their objectives on the battlefield with this kind of terror. This year, Russia is weaker on the battlefield than at any other point in the war. That is why Putin is relying on terror. That is why he is relying on attempts to strike backroom deals to secure some form of pressure relief for Russia, in order to buy more time and more opportunities for war.
Any easing of sanctions against Russia without a clear and lasting de-escalation agreement with Russia is an obvious weakness. It plays into Russia’s hands – allowing it to kill more, wage war for longer, have even less respect for America, and inflict even greater losses and damage on the world.
Ukraine is ready to take symmetrical de-escalatory steps, and the American team knows our position. Our strikes on Russian oil refineries and other oil facilities are a response to Russia’s years-long campaign of terror against Ukraine’s energy sector. Ukraine will not set Russian oil refineries on fire if Russia does not destroy our energy infrastructure. This is the kind of agreement we are proposing to America, and we believe the United States has enough power to achieve such a compromise.
Gifts to Putin will not bring peace or any benefit to the civilized world. Russia will “repay” the diesel with further terror and perfidy. Allowing Russia to sell petroleum products is an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged. What is needed is real de-escalation with Russia on a reciprocal basis.
We count on America’s fair support for our defense of life, for our defense of people in Ukraine – and on the United States having a correspondingly strong conversation with Russia. A strong one, not a weak one.

It is sickening that the USA is now lifting sanctions on Russian fuel, and transparently ridiculous to blame Ukraine for the spike in prices that obviously began with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Putin is murdering innocent Ukrainian civilians every day. The Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. And yet the White House is apparently determined to force American drivers to bankroll Putin’s slaughter. It won’t work and I doubt it will make much difference to the price of fuel.
If we want Russian oil and gas back on the world market then let’s end this war - with a free, sovereign and independent Ukraine.

Please clarify how keeping males off girls' sports teams hurts the LGB community?
Many girls who are same-sex attracted play sports. They are currently losing awards and opportunities to heterosexual boys.

#REPORT: Mark Carney's lawyers in federal court admitted that female inmates in Canadian prisons have been raped by transgender prisoners, but argued that this is a "reasonable limit" on their charter rights to accommodate the "needs of gender diverse inmates."

Our FOIs to Police Scotland, published today in @Sunday_Post, show almost 100 sexual crimes at swimming pools and leisure centres — including rape, sexual assault and 51 voyeurism offences.
81 female victims. 57 male perpetrators. Zero offences attributed to male staff.
11 offences involved girls under 13. More girls under 13 were among the additional victims.
Every recorded offence was at a venue with mixed-sex, village-style shared changing. Not one was recorded at a centre with single-sex facilities.
Councils cannot keep calling these spaces “safe” while girls are being filmed, and sexually assaulted in them.
Local authorities must provide single-sex changing, designated family spaces, proper risk assessments, and stop treating women’s and girls’ safety as secondary.
Changing areas have to change.

Thank you @ladymcbeth2

Our entire safeguarding culture has been destroyed by gender ideology.
🚨(1) BREAKING: An NHS Trust is facing legal action after allowing bearded male patients who identify as women to be admitted to female psychiatric wards and use women’s showers and toilets.
A senior doctor says vulnerable women continue to be put at risk.
The claimant, anonymised as “Dr A”, is a consultant psychiatrist represented by the Christian Legal Centre.
She alleges that the Trust dismissed repeated warnings about the privacy, dignity and safety of female psychiatric patients, including survivors of sexual violence.

New PISA data out- and a huge success story. England is now a top-10 education system in the world. Outside of Asia, one of the highest.
New PISA 2025 results:
Science: 8th in the world, up from 13th
Reading: 9th, up from 13th
Maths: 10th, up from 11th.
While much of the OECD has gone backwards, England has has held its ground while most of the world has gone backwards. Huge achievement by school staff.

Never forget how this medical scandal began.
Back in the 1980s, a small group of trans activists hatched a plot: to take an absurd, illogical overvalued belief—that being transgender is innate, natural, healthy—and force all of society to live in a fictional world built on it.
Given the sheer audacity of that plot, there must have been people who said it couldn’t be done. But if such voices existed, they were ignored. And the activists pressed on until they succeeded in nothing less than reshaping reality itself.
And they didn’t just persuade people to politely look the other way.
They rallied good, decent people to march in the streets demanding that teenagers sacrifice their health, their fertility, and their sexual function in the name of this belief.
They convinced governments to write laws based on a non-existent, fictional concept.
They enlisted well-meaning teachers to poison the minds of a generation with absurd lies.
And they drove doctors to amputate healthy organs and call it medicine.
If they could succeed in creating that false reality, then surely we can succeed in restoring truth.
Because our cause is not built on lies but on logic and reason. Not on ideology but on sound ethical principles. Not on harm but on healing.
My talk at @genspect’s conference in Albuquerque calls for the complete rejection of this dangerous belief.
Only by restoring truth and reality can we actually protect vulnerable people from this medical crime.

Such an incredible story.
At 0920 on Wednesday, 900 children were at Tribhuvan Trishuli school in north Nepal.
The other 700 children were being collected by bus drivers all over the valley.
The headmaster, Rajendra Dadabi, got a frantic call from a friend who was 5 miles upstream.
Rajendra’s friend told him that his village had been washed away by the flood and to run. This unnamed friend is the first hero in this story.
Rajendra said the school was 60 miles above the river and built of concrete. It is possible that the school would be fine.
Rajendra could not take that risk and so rang the bell and evacuated the school. The children were quickly led to higher ground outside the village.
Yet the school buses, each carrying 80 children, were still on their way.
Rajendra managed to contact all drivers but one and told them to turn back. They did.
The final bus was crossing the bridge, as the water was rising quickly.
Rajendra was able to signal to it to turn around, which it did, moments before the bridge collapsed.
The children and teachers had all reached safety on foot, running to the top of the hill.
Except two. The school janitor, Sultan Lama, who returned to the school to close the doors. And a new history teacher, Santos Pariyar, who was cooking breakfast in his room by the river. The river took away the school completely, along with Sultan and Santos.
Dadabi saved an entire generation of Nepalese. 1,643 children. And all staff but two.
He is the second hero of this story.
(The photos show the school before and the place where it was afterwards)

My position is that gender dysphoria is a real, painful condition and that for some adults, the only way they may feel able to resolve that inner conflict is transition. If that’s the road they choose I wish them long life and happiness and I would vigorously oppose any discrimination against them when it comes to employment, housing or voting rights.
I do not believe children have the capacity to consent to treatments that may leave them infertile and, in some cases, anorgasmic. Multiple studies have shown that gender dysphoria in childhood and adolescence is not uncommon, for gay kids particularly, but it also occurs in, for example, straight girls who hate the idea of becoming women and sometimes, tragically, in children who’ve been abused. The available evidence shows that in the majority of cases, gender dysphoria resolves after the person has gone through adolescence. I am strongly opposed to the experimental treatment of blocking puberty in dysphoric children. I believe trans activists have behaved hugely unethically and irresponsibly in pretending that there is good evidence that these treatments are beneficial (there isn’t), that puberty blockers are completely reversible (there is a mounting body of evidence to suggest they aren’t) or that children are likely to kill themselves if denied blockers (there is no evidence to support this and suicide prevention charities warn against making such statements, due to the very real danger of suicide contagion.)
Of course, not all trans-identified people are dysphoric. Erotic transvestism, also known as autogynephilia, (getting a sexual thrill out of dressing as/pretending to be a woman) has been around for a very long time. I believe lesbians are entitled to exclude straight, cross-dressing men from their dating pools without being accused of bigotry and worse (same goes for gay men with trans-identified women). It’s profoundly homophobic to attack gay people for being same-sex attracted.
I don’t believe anyone, adult or child, is ‘born in the wrong body.’ That is an unfalsifiable, quasi-religious belief. A person may *feel* as if they’re in the wrong body, but humans cannot literally change sex. However they identify, men don’t belong in the single-sex spaces for which women fought so hard.
