This only scratches the surface. There are 15,000 posts on Childline’s Gender Identity Board.
It is filled with dangerous advice and opinions. This is even though Childline claim to ‘check every message’. Adults could easily access these boards.
This flag is currently hanging up inside Childline’s Counselling Room in London.
Childline is meant to be a neutral mental health service, free from bias.
Yet, this ideological symbol sends a clear warning to counsellors and children alike to not step out of line.

Childline staff have reached out to me in confidence to share that they feel pressure to ‘affirm’ children with gender dysphoria.
I have been told about Childline counsellors who announce their pronouns when speaking to a child and ask for the child’s pronouns in return.

I volunteered as a Childline counsellor for 5 years.
After I raised concerns about gender ideology within the organisation, including Stonewall’s influence on internal policies, I was removed from my position.
Thread 🧵 - World Mental Health Day 2023 and Gender Dysphoria.
In aid of World Mental Health Day, here are some crucial facts about gender dysphoria, a globally-recognised mental health condition, and the unethical medicalisation of children who suffer from it:

There is no other mental health condition in which you can tell a doctor you have something wrong with you, with no objective test, and receive irreversible medication or surgery on your say-so.
This goes squarely against the Hippocratic Oath.

Gender dysphoria is the only mental health condition in which treatment affirms the highly distressing thoughts inside someone’s head or encourages them to physically change their body.
The treatment for anorexia or body dysmorphia is not liposuction.

🚨Important Thread 🧵- ‘Transgender and Non-Binary Inclusion at Work Guide’.
Today, this Guide was published by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) - the leading body for HR professionals, with over 160,000 members.
It is shocking:
(1/15)
CIPD claims to have consulted with a “broad range of stakeholders”.
Instead, the Acknowledgements page is a roll call of trans activists, including Gendered Intelligence, Global Butterflies, Rainbow Trust and Trans Actual.
Where was Sex Matters or Thoughtful Therapists?
(2/15)
The Guide is filled with ideological language. Terms like “deadnaming” and “assigned male at birth” are used.
Professionals are told that it is crucial to be “honouring and caring about trans and non-binary people’s self of self” and to outwardly demonstrate “allyship”.

1. Don’t pathologise being ‘trans’. However, you must offer treatment for gender dysphoria with irreversible medication/surgery.
2. Only refer to people by language they want. However, it’s fine for us to call you “cis”. (1/5)
3. Children should not be able to smoke, drink alcohol or get a tattoo. However, they should be able to consent to being made infertile from ‘transitioning’.
4. You must understand us. However, you can never understand us because you haven’t had our lived experience. (2/5)
5. People should be free to believe in what they want. However, you must see the world through our ideological lens.
6. The trans community (1% of the population) must be listened to. However, the experiences of detransitioners (1% of trans community) should be ignored. (3/5)
In a rare interview, the Chair of Stonewall spoke with Beth Rigby from Sky News. Anderson squirmed, dodged, stumbled and mumbled through the entire thing.
Here are the most telling parts of the interview:
(1/9)
Anderson took time to ‘celebrate’ Stonewall’s influence on the introduction of same-sex marriage.
Yet, he failed to acknowledge the fact that Stonewall, through championing gender ideology, have essentially sought to erase the entire concept of same-sex attraction.

Nancy Kelley (still CEO of Stonewall) has compared gender critical beliefs to anti-semitism, and lesbians who don’t want to date men to racists.
Yet, when confronted with horrific things she has said, the best Anderson could muster was “they’re not my words”.
