How did woke trans fantasy of gender-neutral loos ever become a priority at Defence?

Flushed away

IT’S bad enough that MPs on all sides indulged the woke trans fantasy so long.

That they prioritised the trendy “trans women are women” mantra over seriously engaging with what that actually meant for the safety of REAL women in toilets, changing rooms and hospitals.

But look too at what this delusional fad has cost a skint public.

The MoD blew £1.3million building 160 gender-neutral loos.

Just in time for the reliably sensible Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch to wage war on them as an affront to women’s rights.

Most Tories sided long ago with the reality­-based community against the self-ID madness.

Labour, typically, branded them bigots, then joined them.

But so much damage has been done.

How did such wokery ever become a priority at Defence?

A department ­consistently cash-strapped somehow found a seven-figure sum to indulge it.

The pushback, in politics and elsewhere, has come not a moment too soon.

Zero chance

ONLY now are our two main parties realising Britain will not be strong-armed into funding insanely hasty Net Zero deadlines.

The Sun warned politicians they would eventually hit a brick wall of opposition. That impact is imminent.

A poll today bears us out. People want lower emissions. They will do what they can.

But most have no spare money to blow on a lower quality of life:

For eye-wateringly pricey battery cars hit by low mileage ranges and insufficient public chargers.

For £15,000 heat pumps that won’t warm homes like gas.

And they are staunchly against tax rises to advance the 2050 Net Zero date.

Especially when they know our comparatively tiny emissions are NOT the problem. They have collapsed since 2010.

Time and again the Westminster elite who never foresaw Brexit prove they remain utterly out of touch.

They have simply assumed they can bully a compliant public into footing a mind-blowing climate bill.

Voters will not wear it.

Snow good

WE suppose someone, somewhere may be interested in watching Disney’s woke new Snow White.

We just can’t imagine who.

You’d need to be related to the cast to sit through a tedious rewrite which denudes the fabulous fairytale of Prince Charming and the seven dwarves.

As for its star Rachel Zegler . . . only a 22-year-old Hollywood actress could watch the original and conclude that the prince is “a stalker”.

Snow White? More like Snow Flake.

If Disney is so determined to mould young audiences into a brand new ­generation of fragile wokies it should conjure them up some brand new tales.

Not butcher classics millions of sane people love.
