JK Rowling: BBC can't be trusted to report trans issues
JK Rowling has claimed that the BBC can no longer be trusted to report trans issues. The Harry Potter author attacked the broadcaster after it failed to report that a women-only housing development would be open to biological men. The BBC published an online report about the women-only tower block, opening in west London next summer. The block is designed for survivors of domestic abuse struggling to find a home, but the BBC story did not say that the flats would be open to trans women and non-binary people, whatever their biological sex. This prompted her to write on X: 'It's not women only. Men will be accommodated there if they say they're women. 'Our national broadcaster can no longer be trusted to report truthfully or impartially on matters relating to sex, preferring to push its own luxury beliefs on the unenlightened masses.' It is the latest in a series of spats between Rowling, who campaigns on women's rights, and the corporation. Two years ago, the BBC received more than 100 complaints after the Radio 4 PM presenter Evan Davis failed to challenge accusations against the author. Stacey Henley, a trans woman and the editor-in-chief of The Gamer, a video games website, accused the author of pushing 'transphobia', as well as having 'a campaign against trans people'. The BBC was forced to issue an apology, saying that 'we should have challenged the claims more directly'. Rowling has also criticised the corporation over its coverage of sport, after it emerged that Alex Kay-Jelski, its head of sport, had blocked Martina Navratilova and Sharron Davies, the former sports stars-turned-women's rights campaigners, on social media. Brook House, in Acton, will provide 102 affordable rented flats. The tenants will be a mixture of women from Ealing council's waiting list and residents put forward by Women's Pioneer Housing, which was founded by suffragists in 1920. The housing association said its mission was to offer single women access to 'safe, secure and affordable homes and services', and to encourage other housing providers to 'understand the needs of single women'. It said the building would be open to anyone who has a 'gender recognition certificate legally declaring them female'. Flats would also be open to trans women who 'intend to undergo, are undergoing or have undergone gender reassignment', as well as 'non-binary people who meet the aforementioned criteria'. This is despite the fact that the Supreme Court confirmed in April that it would be legal to restrict access to the tower block based on biological sex and not gender identity.

Jodie Comer puts on a showstopping display in a metallic silver gown as she joins co-star Aaron Taylor-Johnson at the premiere of Danny Boyle's long-awaited sequel 28 Years Later
Jodie Comer put on a showstopping display in a metallic silver gown as she attended the glitzy premiere of 28 Years Later on Wednesday. The actress, 32, slipped into the eye-catching dress as she graced the red carpet at London's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square with co-star Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Jodie arrived for the premiere in her form-fitting silver dress as she celebrated the release of Danny Boyle's long-awaited sequel for his 2002 film 28 Days Later. The Killing Eve star was in high spirits as she spoke to co-star Aaron, who opted for a sharp all-black look. The Marvel star was joined at the premiere by his wife Sam, 58, who cut a chic figure in a white midi dress. The two leading stars were also joined on the red carpet by Alfie Williams, who plays their son in the film, with the Newcastle-born star opting for a sharp red and black paisley suit. The actress slipped into the eye-catching dress as she graced the red carpet at London's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square The release of 28 Years Later has been long-awaited, with fans left waiting two decades to discover the next instalment in the film series. And with the nation devastated by the Rage virus nearly three decades ago, this new film - released June 19 - will show insight into the vastly different ways humanity has adapted to survive. For one such community, this means complete isolation from the outside world, and in a new clip ahead of the film's premiere, star Aaron shares insight into this new addition to the 28 Days Later universe for the first time. In this new land, known as The Holy Island, humans are entirely self-sufficient, and only leave the community to hunt on the mainland, when the tide is low. Aaron plays Jamie a scavenger who is tasked with training his Spike to survive in the wilderness, before they embark on a deadly mission to the mainland. Meanwhile Jodie plays Jamie's wife Isla, a woman who is suffering from memory loss. Jodie recently admitted she was 'scared' while filming new zombie thriller 28 Years Later. And while the flick is intended to petrify movie fans, Jodie has told how despite starring in the film, she was left startled herself as she insisted that one 'can't fake' the emotions she exhibited on screen. Speaking in a featurette ahead of the film's release later this month, Jodie explained: 'Being on a Danny Boyle set, I found it to be the most amazing experience. 'The relationship that the camera seemed to be having with the characters and the story and seeing how that comes to life. 'I was quite taken aback because I felt like I'd spent a lot of time outdoors in the beautiful locations and then all of a sudden, I'm being chased. 'I was scared - there is a kind of tension within it, you can't fake it. When you're in these high intensity situations, it's exhilarating, it's thrilling, it's terrifying.' She went on to add of the film's director: 'I think what Danny brings to this genre is humanity and emotion.' It comes as Danny dropped a huge revelation about Cillian Murphy's fate in the movie. The original film 28 Days Later starred Cillian, 49, as a bicycle courier who wakes up from a coma to discover the accidental release of a highly contagious, aggression-inducing virus that has caused the breakdown of society. But despite frenzied speculation that he would be reprising his role in this sequel, when the trailer came out in December, one character appeared to resemble a zombified form of Cillian's character Jim from the first film. However, this theory was quickly shut down when a London art dealer and model revealed he was the one playing the zombie character. But now Danny has confirmed that Cillian will make an appearance in the second and third films of the new trilogy. He is also serving as executive producer. Speaking about Cillian's role in the new post-apocalypse thriller, Danny told IGN: 'He is in the second one', adding: 'I shouldn't give away too much – I'll get killed.' He went on to say: 'We haven't got the money for the third one yet. It will depend how the first one does, I guess. 'But hopefully if we do OK, they'll give us the go-ahead for the money and for the third one. Everybody's standing by for that, really, including Cillian.'

It's no longer the 90s, but Pamela Anderson still makes women feel inadequate
Pamela Anderson has reinvented herself as a 'rebel' against the rules of conventional beauty. Which is great; I genuinely applaud it. Even if it does require a bit of cognitive reorganisation. Back in the 1990s, none of us would have pegged Pamela Anderson to become feminism's last redoubt. She was one of the women who made other women feel bad about themselves. Not deliberately, I'm sure; just by comparison. She looked like a game of Heads, Bodies and Legs, played entirely by the male libido: plump lips, tousled blonde hair, long brown legs, and breasts so round and tempting they looked like iced buns peeping over the top of her famous red swimsuit. Hers were the first 'fake boobs' I had ever seen, and they made me feel – on top of the usual demoralised awe that comes from gazing upon an impossible ideal – a frisson of dread. If even this woman was considered, or considered herself, imperfect enough to require surgery, what hope for the rest of us? The vapid, girl-power version of feminism that took hold in the 1990s (the decade of Baywatch, lads' mags and the supermodel) rejected the idea that there was anything weak or unsisterly about modifying your body in order to meet a tyrannical standard of beauty. Your body, your choice: ergo, anything you chose to do to yourself must be empowering. But what about everyone else? No woman is an island. We all compare ourselves to others, and adjust our self-image accordingly. It's a bit like when you're in a sauna, naked, and then one person comes in wearing a bikini: suddenly everyone else feels hideously exposed. The same is true of people who – whether naturally, or via considerable money, effort and pain – achieve great physical beauty. They raise the bar for everyone else. The result is a constantly escalating cycle of improvement works, turbo-charged in recent years by social media. The more women chase it, the narrower the beauty ideal becomes. The algorithmic symmetry of an AI deepfake is the new perfection. One cosmetic surgery website lays out the maths: 'The distance from the top of the nose to the centre of the lips should be around 1.618 times the distance from the centre of the lips to the chin'; 'the length of an ear should be comparable to the length of the nose'; and 'the model ratio of volume in the lips is 1:1.6 (the lower lip having slightly more volume than the upper lip)'. No wonder we have reached a point where, according to the Chartered Trading Standards Institute, young women are meeting untrained practitioners in public toilets to get cheap Botox, fat jabs and even butt lifts. Failing that, they hide behind smartphone filters. These smooth away all their flaws/idiosyncracies, allowing them to present to the world the melancholy sight of the person they wish they were. And now here comes Pammy, mourning the effects of this conformity. 'With AI technology and filters, people are becoming kind of boring-looking,' she told Harpers Bazaar. At 57, she has taken to walking the red carpet without any make-up on, in order to 'challenge beauty norms. I've always been a rebel.' The trouble is, she looks incredible: cheekbones like scythes, lightly freckled skin, jewels glittering in her Mia Farrow-style fringed bob. Is this what us fifty-somethings must now aspire to? It's a challenge alright: just not the one Anderson thinks she's making.
