Homophobia is dislike of or prejudice against gays and lesbians. We will oppose it whatever form it takes. We oppose it when it is based on regressive, traditionalist, religious, sexist bias branded as “family values”./1of4
We oppose it when it is based on the regressive stereotypes and sexist bias known as “gender identity” and falsely branded as “inclusiveness”. The belief that “sex” should be replaced by “gender” excludes and is hostile to people with same-sex sexual orientation./2of4
We oppose homophobia whether it comes from the right or the left. Whether those who attack us call themselves conservative or progressive./3of4
We are LGB people. That is not an identity but a sexual orientation. We assert the rights of lesbians, gays and bisexuals everywhere, whatever the pressures, and in some cases dangers, you experience as a result of your sexual orientation. We are here for you./4of4

If this hearing on 12th Jan is successful, we will see the first judicial review of whether it is appropriate for a govt dept or other public body to be a member of @stonewalluk Diversity Champions scheme. Why is this important?
Because if it goes ahead the court will look at @cpsuk who are charged with “institutional bias” from their membership of the controversial scheme. Membership involves completing an annual questionnaire to receive a rating.@stonewalluk advises members on how to achieve top marks
There are 100s of public sector bodies who belong: @HouseofCommons @UKHouseofLords @WelshGovernment @scotgov, universities, armed forces, police, NHS & regulatory bodies. All receive higher marks if they agree to @stonewalluk gender identity theory which has no grounding in law

Max was 11 years old and Ash was 8. Their stories were told in the 2016 documentary on the Tavistock GIDS clinic “Kids on the Edge: the Gender Clinic”. The clinic’s management was delighted with the documentary. Its director, Dr Polly Carmichael, said enthusiastically:/1of12
”We all feel proud to have been involved in the process and that we could not have wished for more in the way that they approached and conducted the whole process.”/2of12
Peter Beard, for the Guardian, enthused in his review: “I hope the people who rage about such things might also find the time to watch The Gender Clinic, which does a steady job of dismantling many of the panicked, inaccurate fears around what is clearly a complex process.”/3of12

"This fearless book [by @abigailshrier] shows how girls’ bodies have become collateral damage in adult culture wars," says @VictoriaPeckham. In 2021 we must explore what drives gender identity theorists to put their ideology above the health & welfare /1

of children & young people. Gender identity ideologues promote a “progressive” new world where "trans children" skip an essential stage of every human being's physical, psychological & sexual development - puberty. /2
Then these “trans children” move on from puberty blockers to cross sex hormones whose effects are immediate and visible. 98% do @TaviAndPort. More experimentation and no measurable improvement to mental health. /3 transgendertrend.com/tavistock-expe…

Amid all the disorientation of 2020, it has in many ways been a good year for #LGBAlliance. We have seen steady progress, and made some fantastic leaps forward, in our campaign to protect LGB rights./1
In January we had our kick-off event at Oran Mor in Glasgow. We campaigned to support the long-standing women’s groups in Scotland to Press Pause on the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill. The Bill was subsequently tossed into the long grass./2 Image
In February Kate Harris outlined what we call “Stonewall Law” at the Make More Noise event in Manchester. She explained how the law was being misrepresented. The phrase “Stonewall Law” was gradually taken up by other campaigners./3

We are living through a period of such breathtaking, callous disregard for the lives of girls that the jeers and slurs sometimes seem all-encompassing. /1of17

Thankfully, however, those whose minds are not dulled by dogma, tribalism or misogyny are starting to realize the full scale of the crime that is being committed. All in the name of “progressive” politics./2of17
To a considerable extent, this growing realization is thanks to the work of the intrepid journalist Janice Turner, @VictoriaPeckham. Here are a few striking passages from her stunning review of a book that everyone who cares about girls - or about false gods - must read./3of17

Well it's funny but not funny really is it @sally_hines? To any adult who does not question why there has been a 4400% rise in UK girls wishing to become boys via puberty blockers, CSH & surgery over the last decade, we ask you to pause, do some research and think.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how funny is it for children to start a lifetime of medication? How funny is it that other comorbidities such as autism, anxiety, depression are not thoroughly explored? How funny is it that girls as young as 12 in US & 18 in UK have healthy breasts removed?
How much does it make you laugh to imagine a child agreeing with her clinician that she never ever wants to have children? And how funny is it that she knows now, as a child, that she is the opposite sex, because peer pressure & social media tell her so?
