1./ Is the Beeb careless about paedophilia? One reason it might be is its closeness to madcap LGBTQ+ activists who seem themselves to be blasé about child safeguarding. How else to explain why the BBC is still showcasing this film presented by a notorious paedophile, Ian Dunn.👇

2./ 'Glad to Be Gay' is one of the films in the BBC's Gay Archive. And who is Dunn? He was exposed in the 1980s as one of the founders of the Paedophile Information Exchange. Yet here's the BBC Pride staff group last week suggesting people check out the films. No questions asked.

3./ Dunn was a disgusting individual who campaigned to sweep away the age of consent and is alleged to have had lots of under age sex himself. It's not as if the BBC wasn't warned. Here's the Daily Mail complaining about the film in...2015. 👇

4./ There's an argument for allowing access to the film as a historical item. But it's a total ethical failure not to highlight the TRUTH about Dunn. Here's what happened to the National Museum when they presented Dunn as some sort of gay rights hero.👇scotsman.com/arts-and-cultu…

5./ Even the Greens' Patrick Harvie had to apologise for taking an award in Dunn's name tho I'm not sure he ever handed it back. IF the BBC took advice from mainstream LGB staff I'd guarantee they'd urge the Beeb to highlight Dunn's appalling mixed record and terrible legacy.👇

6./ Instead the BBC relies on its LGBTQ+ Queer Theory influenced activists who seem to share the tin ear of the likes of Peter Tatchell on the horror felt by the public at paedophilia. Here's Tatchell's uplifting obituary to Dunn, the notorious paedo. 👇 independent.co.uk/news/obituarie…

7./ The BBC has been advised by Stonewall and other weird organisations for years. You have to wonder why in all that time the BBC has not removed a paedophile from its showcase history of gay rights. Maybe they don't care about gay people's reputation? 👇bbc.co.uk/archive/the-ga…
