UK hospitals chain won’t offend transsexuals – ‘pregnant people’ instead of pregnant women
A hospital chain in the UK has developed a new politically correct vocabulary so as not to "offend" transsexuals. Among other things, one should avoid calling pregnant women "women" or use language that is connected to motherhood. Breast milk, for example, will henceforth be called "human milk".

In the eternal search for an increasingly politically correct language, not even the idea of embracing mental illness is a bridge too far. The competition in this race to the bottom seems to be between different western countries, with Sweden, the USA and the United Kingdom in the lead. At the moment, however, a hospital chain in the UK may at least have taken the lead in political correctness, reported the Daily Mail.
The Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals Trust, which operates a number of hospitals in the city of Brighton, has now launched the UK’s first specialist language guide to “support trans- and non-binary mothers”.
The list of terms and words to change includes:
Breast milk – which should be changed to “human milk”
Motherhood – which should be changed to “parenthood”
Mother – which should be changed to “birth parent”
The hospital also urges its employees to try to transform gender terms such as “woman” into “they/them” and “person”.
The guide is intended to be used in documents, minutes and meetings, and it is hoped from the hospital’s side that it will also be used in the rest of the UK’s healthcare system. The guide clarifies that one should actively start adding words such as “people” instead of gender-specific names for pregnant women – despite the fact that of course only women can biologically become pregnant.
“Gender identity can be a source of oppression and health inequality,” it says in the guide, among other things.
Another ridiculous notion in the guide, that of “biological essentialism” suggests a belief that biological truths fundamental to humans, such as that women are biologically carriers of the offspring of the species and become pregnant and give birth to children, is somehow a problem. The current politically correct dogma instead claims that men can become women and women the opposite, as long as they decide or feel like it.
According to studies in the UK, less than one percent of the population is transsexual and moreover the number of women who think they are men and are still trying to get pregnant is very low. The frustration that a very small number of transsexuals feel about pretending that their delusions are reality, has been noticed by Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals. And it has decided to extend the con game to include most sane people.
Gender dysphoria, which is the current medical term for transsexualism, is still classified as a mental illness in many countries and there is no effective treatment at present but the care offered focuses instead on changing the appearance of the body through medical and surgical treatment.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.
The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.

Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

Why is it acceptable to offend 99.9% of people with this nonsense though?
It’s utterly insane. The West is doomed.
In the days of the Vestal Virgins you can be sure that a man who identified as a woman, or was even a eunuch would be deemed an unsuitable candidate for the college of Vestals.
