1./ Has @stonewalluk finally blown itself up? In Nov 2021 when the lobby group was criticised, for effectively being publicly funded gangsters who misrepresent the law and intimidate employers to keep paying them protection money, they defended themselves by citing the @EHRC 👇
2./ Stonewall assured employers horrified by the revelations of the ‘Nolan Investigates’ podcast their guidance was based on @EHRC’s Equality Act Code of Practice. It isn’t but that’s a small lie for a group that denies basic biology. Now what’s their view of the sainted @EHRC?👇
3./ Two months later the body which Stonewall used to whitewash its expensive grifting is denounced as betraying LGBTQ+ people. The truth is Stonewall imposed its own fantasy version of the law and ignored the actual one which makes no mention of the so-called LGBTQ+.
4./ No one knows who the Q are never mind the Q+. They’re undefined and perhaps undefinable in law. Stonewall tho helped construct an LGBTQ+ umbrella so unlimited it sometimes seemed to include identities of the type Tatchell loves and the law would prefer to investigate. 👀
5./ Stonewall misled employers for years it spoke with the authority of @EHRC. Now, in a tactic the Keystone Cops would envy it’s trying to discredit that very authority it relied on. Could the last employer trying to get its money back please switch off the lights.

1./ The Holocaust was such a devastating event in human history we need continually to learn its lessons. All the more unfortunate then that @HMD_UK repeats canards about Magnus Hirschfeld and his Berlin clinic. Yet again, Hirschfeld is promoted as an uncomplicated hero. 👇
2./ In fact, Hirschfeld promoted castration as a cure for homosexuality, his ethnology chief argued for African colonial subjugation and the surgeon he employed to do the first sex change surgery would help lead the Nazi effort to sterilise the disabled.👇
3./ Gohrbrand would later commission appalling experiments at Dachau. As the horrors of the Nazi regime recede from living memory it's never been more important to ensure every statement made during Holocaust Memorial Day is based firmly in facts. Hirschfeld was no hero.
1./ Does the @BBC deserve more money? Here's just a few ways it could stop wasting license payers' money, provide a better service and give less of an impression it functions as the plaything of a tiny, unrepresentative minority. independent.co.uk/news/uk/bbc-na…
2./ It took 2 years of complaints before the @BBC finally removed this "educational" material it produced for Primary Schools that contained the legend there were over 100 gender identities. That the videos were ever made was a sign of a weird ideological capture.
3./ Many BBC journalists say privately they feel unable to speak openly about gender issues. It might be an idea for the @BBC to dispel the sense it's enforcing a narrow agenda at the behest of lobby groups including its own LGBT+ staff group @BBCPride 👇dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
1./ The fake trans science bandwagon trundles on. Yet another paper by ideological activists self-identifying as objective scientists is now being amplified by the American media to claim that trans hormone therapy saves lives. Mmm. Let's have a little look at this claim. /1of19
2./ @nowthisnews claims the study shows access to hormone therapy "reduces suicide rates". In fact the paper itself explored a possible association between levels of depression, thoughts of suicide and attempted suicide. Although the researchers were happy to put a spin on it.
3./ The paper compares young people who've had access to hormone therapy and those who wanted it but couldn't get it. 23% of those who wanted it claimed to have attempted suicide versus 14% for those who got it. But there is a glaring omission in the paper.
1./ Why are our opponents so DUMB? It's a question you can't help but ask after the latest agitated LGBTQ+ protest. It was against @markjenkinsonmp who's dared to question the way trans ideology is being pushed like kid-friendly kool aid in the nation's schools.
/1 of 9
2./ Jenkinson asked questions this week in Parliament about reports some schools were not informing parents they'd allowed their children to socially "transition" and that some social services were putting pressure on parents to affirm their child's "trans identity". 👇
3./ The response by @MinFreerHMG was underwhelming. "Parents and carers will, of course, have the right to express their views on how a child identifies." Well, thank you very much Minister. For asking questions like this Jenkinson has been labelled a transphobe and homophobe.👇
1./ What a loss. Jana Bennett was one of the leading lights of a platoon of brilliant women that took over the Science Department at the BBC in the 1990s. She ushered in a golden era at 'Horizon' when some blockbusters garnered more than 5 million viewers. broadcastnow.co.uk/bbc/jana-benne…
2./ Jana combined passion for science with the instinct for a good story. At 'Horizon' she kept a framed copy of the ratings for one stellar week on BBC2 in 1993 when 9 out of the top 10 rating shows were 'Snooker' except for one: Horizon: The Pyramid Builders (5.1M).
3./ Along with Susan Spindler, Lorraine Heggessy Bettina Lerner, Jane Root and Emma Swain, Jana helped transform the BBC. But it was always about more than ratings. As part of a small development team she sent me to cover an archaeological dig in Kent where graves had been found.
. 1/ For those mesmerised by the sheer strangeness of Della Alexander, the producer of the first ever TV show presented by trans people in 1973 on the BBC here's an update. It appears the star of the show, the fragrant Della, was a keen supporter of Mosley and his fascists.👇
2./ In academic essays Derek Alexander appears as Mosley's South African lieutenant. Della travelled there to support apartheid and became an army reservist. This may explain why in the BBC show a medium is said to have put him in touch with a man with a funny moustache.
3./ Thanks to @coccinellanovem & @fcqv for the detective work. The muffled reference from Della to those who gave her paranormal advice is to "Dr Vervoerd" who introduced mass detention and imprisoned Nelson Mandela. Thank goodness you can't judge a movement by one bad apple.
