UK: Teachers should no longer say ‘boy’ and ‘girl’
A British LGBT organization urged teachers to stop using the words "boy" and "girl". In addition, the organization that fights for the rights of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals (LGBT) is urging schools to give children the option of both school uniforms – both skirts and pants.

Instead, teachers should say “learners,” according to guidelines reported by the Daily Telegraph. The organization, Stonewall, received funding from the government last year for programs against “homophobic, biphobic and transphobic” behaviour in schools. From 2015 to 2019, the organization received almost three million pounds in funding from various government funding pots. In addition, many large companies pay Stonewall generous amounts of money to participate in “diversity” programs.
Joint physical education classes for boys and girls
The organization recommended further measures to be taken in the guidelines for teachers. For example, children should attend the same physical education class regardless of their “gender” and be able to use changing rooms and showers according to their preferences. Stonewall also said that elementary school children should learn to use their “preferred pronoun” – in English, “he/him” or “she/her” or for transgender people “they /them”. Teachers should teach children to use the pronouns “they/them”.
Stonewall has established a School and College Champion Program consisting of hundreds of participating schools. A three-digit amount is payable for this and enables adherents to take part in competitions for particularly LGBT-friendly schools.
The conservative Safe School Alliance UK has criticized the recommendation to teach children of both sexes in a joint physical education class and to let boys compete against girls. It continued to call for separate physical education classes for safety and fairness reasons.
Recently, Stonewall caused a stir by demanding that the word “mother” be abandoned for the person who has children.
Ministers criticize Stonewall
Stonewall was founded in 1989 to lobby for gay and lesbian rights. In the past few years, the association has shifted its focus more and more to transgender issues. This has led to a partial split in the gay and lesbian movement.
Some gays and lesbians find that the organization is neglecting its traditional role and shifting unilaterally to trans-lobbyism.
More recently, several key ministers in Boris Johnson’s cabinet, including Secretary of State for Women and Equality, Liz Truss, have spoken out against Stonewall. Government agencies should no longer participate in and pay for Stonewall’s controversial Diversity Champion program, she said. Truss accused them of becoming “extremist”.
The former head of the NHS health service, Kate Grimes, who had supported Stonewall as a lesbian, recently accused the organization of being “no longer compatible” with NHS values.
Stonewall threatens safety in the NHS by advocating shared changing rooms and showers for men and women, trans men and trans women. In addition, these Stonewall pressures endangers freedom of expression and free debate on these issues. Incidentally, the number of young people seeking gender transition is at the highest it has ever been due to the advocacy from other organizations too, such as Human Rights Watch.
In New Zealand, where Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II is still the country’s official head of state, the National Olympic Committee (NZOC) meanwhile nominated transgender athlete Laurel Hubbard for the Tokyo Games this week. The weightlifter – who still looks like a man – competes in the class up to 87 kilograms and is the first transgender athlete at the Olympics, reported the Reuters news agency.
“We have a strong culture of respect and inclusion. We are committed to supporting all eligible athletes,” said the NZOC.
Criticism from opponents, coaches and spectators
Hubbard’s participation in women’s competitions has caused displeasure among opponents, coaches and spectators. He, as a trans woman, is accused of having an unfair advantage because as a man, Hubbard had never competed in international competitions.
According to a guideline introduced by the International Olympic Committee in 2015, a trans woman must declare that her gender identity is female. This cannot be changed for four years. In addition, the athlete must prove that her testosterone level has been below a certain threshold for a period of at least twelve months.
Belgian weightlifter Anna Vanbellinghen, who competes in the same weight class as Hubbard, recently called the New Zealander’s nomination a “bad joke”. The situation is “unfair to the sport and the athletes” she said. Vanbellinghen, 27, pointed out that the retained benefit of taking steroids, even years earlier, is widely known. “So why is it still a question whether two decades, from puberty to the age of 35, the hormonal system of a man also gives an advantage [in competing against women]?”

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."
