Let's hope she stands by her commitment to keep men out of women's sports at Olympic level.

How does Zimbabwe's tiny white population survive now.. Rhodesia as I call it, is now a failed state, once a prospering country thanks to folk Like Sir Garfeild Todd, a Kiwi from Invercargil, NZ ...IT SEEMS THE RARE MINERALS AND TOBBACCO make the only income for the parasite elite, in your country... The IOC is the most corrupt body in the world.. I got here by mistake im also Peter's substack haha, but your good..

Hello Peter Allan Williams - thank you for your column on the new head of the (famously corrupt) IOC. Have we sufficiently explored the possibility that some of the endless flow of money from trans billionaires might have influenced the vote this time? Sebastian Coe, who by any measure was the superior candidate had, of course, come out in support of keeping female competition woman-only. He denied the right of men who mimic women to compete against females.

Indeed corruption is alive and well. Can't say jobs for the boys, but the metaphor is apt. Coe would have been the ideal IOC President. Sadly another reason not to watch or support the Olympics.

well I don't go that far. Every Olympian deserves more than that, wherever they're from. Just goes to show though that white males can certainly be victims of reverse sexism, and that DEI is alive and well in sport.
