What is advertised as “diversity” & “inclusiveness” is a set of beliefs based on gender identity theory. The resulting policies undermine the rights of LGB people, women & girls and flout the Equality Act. Why are govt agencies paying into this programme? telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/10/3…
“Roughly 250 Government departments and public bodies, including police forces, local councils and NHS trusts, pay thousands each year to be members of the programme run by Stonewall.”
“The amount that each organisation pays is shrouded in secrecy, but the base rate is £2,500 and can vary depending on the size of the organisation, suggesting that the taxpayer is footing a bill of at least £600,000.”
“A recent Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) shows it is paying the charity £6,000 a year for two subscriptions – one for their staff in England and one in Wales.”
“A separate FOI request to the Scottish Government shows it paid £9,144 to the charity in 2019, including £7,200 for membership.”
“The CPS is currently facing a judicial review over its membership, which campaigners say renders it ‘institutionally biased’.”
“Tracy Shaw, a spokesperson for @SafeSchools_UK, said there was a duty on public bodies to remain impartial, objective and balanced and that could be compromised by membership of a lobby group.”
“She said: ‘How can you be impartial when you are part of a champion programme which compels you to do certain things and behave in a certain way that contravenes women and girls rights to safe spaces?’”
