1./ The Great Conversion Therapy Ban Cover Up.
The Scottish government invited journos in a few days ago to brief them on its proposed CT Ban. Guess what wasn't mentioned? The ONLY research from the UK ever conducted into the subject, from 2021.
1/of 21 gov.uk/government/pub…
2./ The Scottish govt instead quoted from a 2017 National LGBT Survey; as now all Ban supporters insist on doing. But if the LGBT Survey was such useful evidence why did the UK govt commission specific research into Conversion Therapy, from a team at Coventry Yooni? Here's why.👉
3./ The Coventry research team spelled out why we should not rely on the National Survey. First, it wasn't a randomised trial therefore "it is not possible to make robust claims...or causal inferences". The Survey also relied on self-reporting. Guess what they said about that.👉
4./ By being self-selecting the findings of the National Survey are "vulnerable to biases". The Coventry team also complained recruiting through networks "may introduce sampling biases". The National Survey had used silly activist networks like @OzanneFoundn. Course they did,
5./ For these reasons the National Survey is no more accurate than any straw poll conducted among angry activists and drunk people at Pride marches (where people were indeed recruited). Why then didn't the Coventry research get a mention at the Scottish govt's press conference?
6./ The problem was the Coventry Report struggled to find much evidence of conversion therapy in the UK. So much so they had to trawl through "entries for conversion therapy in Wikipedia". Yep! WIKIFUCKINGPEDIA. Why didn't they just flick thru the Beano while they were at it?
7./ As for the previous research they analysed, 35 of the 46 studies were from the US. The UK is the most secular nation in the world. Why would we base our policy on research from a country full of fruitloopy evangelicals who DO often offer so-called "gay reparative therapy"?
8./ What's worse most of these studies were from 10-20 years ago. 2003/4 was another world in terms of homophobia. The Equality Act was only passed here in 2010. Only 3 studies were from the UK. What relevance can these old, American studies have to us in the UK now? Zilch.
9./ In addition to that old research, the Coventry team interviewed people today. But they only managed to pull together a whopping THIRTY "LGBT" people who claimed to have been offered or undergone "Conversion Therapy" in the last 20 years. Even then they acknowledged problems.
10./ With fabulous understatement the Coventry team admitted of the 30 people they dredged up, "their experiences may not represent current practices". You don't say? And "such accounts may not always be entirely accurate due to needing to rely on people's memories". No shit.
11./ There's another reason the Ban Campaign has ignored the ONLY actual research from the UK specifically into Conversion Therapy. And from only 3 years ago. Guess what? A third of interviewees reported secondary benefits from their experience of the "Therapy". Whoops....
12./ Yep, far from all the Coventry research interviewees being traumatised by "conversion therapy", one third reported "a sense of connection and belonging with other men in the same situation". I was amazed as, I bet, the Coventry team were by the findings. But facts are facts.
13. Or they should be. Interviewees cited "lasting friendships..and a sense of community." One said, "it's still helped me today with things that aren't to do with my sexuality". So much for all that talk about electrocution and beatings. The Coventry research gets stranger.👉
14./ The team could find only 6 trans people in the whole of the UK who'd been offered Conversion Therapy in the last TWO DECADES; and only 3 of them claimed to have undergone it. All this is why its findings have had to be airbrushed. It didn't fit the preconceived narrative. 👉
15./ RECAP. The Coventry research was commissioned precisely because the LGBT Survey did not pass muster as serious evidence. When it then proved to be the dampest of squibs the LGBTQ+ lobby tried to bury it. By the way, don't imagine the Coventry work had a Gender Critical bias.
16./ Far from it. This research was commissioned at the high-tide of Stonewall influence at Westminster. The head of the Coventry team, Adam Jowett (he/him inevitably) was a paid up LGBTQ+ activist who cared so little about neutrality he retweeted attacks on @RosieDuffield1.
17./ He also lampooned the Nolan Investigates podcast which exposed the baleful influence of Stonewall. That's why his team's inability to come up with any evidence that "conversion therapy" in the UK is either widespread or universally traumatic is so important. And telling.
18./ We're told by the LGBTQ+ lobby that so-called conversion therapy haunts the land; torturing gay and/or trans people. Yet even when a lavishly-funded, hand-picked group of LGBTQ+ activists tried hard to find any evidence they failed pathetically. Is that cos it doesn't exist?
19./ No one wants anyone gay, trans or whatever, to be forced into changing their identity or even their viewpoint. The truth tho is the only time anyone researched the subject seriously they found no evidence it's happening on a scale that should make it any sort of priority.
20./ The tragedy is the LGBTQ+ lobby is manufacturing a fact-free scare about "conversion therapy" in order to enforce so-called "gender affirmation". This deliberate transing of gender non comforming kids is the real conversion therapy. And the scandal of our age.

1./ Trans Propaganda. In 2020 @guardian applauded "a moving new documentary" about Jess Ting, a "trans surgery" pioneer. The film was made with money donated by the world's most notorious paedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. He'd also donated to Ting's clinic. theguardian.com/film/2020/nov/…
2./ In emails biologist Robert Trivers sold "trans surgery" to Epstein as a way to realise a porn fantasy of sucking a penis attached to a woman's body. "It would be much nicer if the organism is female, then you get the best of both worlds." Surgery that Ting specialised in.
3./ The Guardian was not to know Epstein was funding Ting but they could have asked some questions instead of uncritically raving about the film's "poignant, deeply emotional scenes of relief and excitement" in which the surgeon mutilated mentally deluded young people.
1./ 🧵Another reason Mandelson should never have been made ambassador? Just 2 months before he was given the job in December 2024, Mandelson was in the news; forced out of his role as deputy chairman of a troubled new bank. There lies a story. 👉 thetimes.com/business/compa…
2./ Set up by the dodgy gay Labour donor Anthony Watson in 2021, Bank of London soon racked up huge losses. In September 2024 HMRC threatened to close the bank down after it failed to pay its VAT. The fact Mandelson was its Deputy Chairman should have rung Downing St alarm bells.
3./ No-one could know what fresh scandal might emerge from a bank obviously being badly run under Mandelson's watch. And indeed in May last year an investigation into "historical matters" at Bank of London was launched by the UK's banking regulator. thebanker.com/content/103757…
1./ 🧵The Curse of Trans Ideology strikes again. The closure of Glasgow's Centre for Contemporary Arts is a perfect example of what's wrong with our culture. The CCA has gone bust after endless protests by pro-Palestine muppets and its own obsession with pro-trans "arts".👉
1/of 9
2./ The last event at the CCA was a play that for a decade has been the darling of the Scottish arts establishment. 'The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven' re-imagines Jesus as a "transwoman". Talk about niche. The play has a long and toxic track record. Globally. 👉
3./ In 2016 Creative Scotland helped fund a tour of Brazil of 'The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven'. What could possibly go wrong in a nation passionately Christian? The play outraged the public and turned a local politician into a celebrity. apnews.com/arts-and-enter…
1./ 🧵 Do you want proof the American Left's obsession with trans ideology is driving it insane? Today the @nytimes' podcast 'The Daily' reported from Minnesota on the ICE raids. Guess where its intrepid journalists visited first? Yep...a trans owned sex shop. Really! 👉
1/of 9
2./ Like most Brits I don't really know what's going on in Minnesota so I turned wearily to @nytimes to hear the liberal take. The report began by telling us cash donations are being collected by Smitten Kitten, a trans-owned sex shop. 5 mins of googling by me revealed this. 👉
3./ Last year Smitten Kitten warned it was in danger of closing. The perfect place to handle cash donations. A member of staff also told 'The Daily' migrants visited the store to pick up diapers for their kids, ie..."bring your kids to our sex store!!" Was this a good idea? 👉
1./ Ever wondered what happened to the doctor who invented 'sex change' surgery? My latest article uncovers what he did after the fall of the Nazis. In 1931 Erwin Gohrbandt invented the vaginoplasty. 2 years later he put his skills to work for the National Socialists.
2./ Gohrbandt was commissioned by Magnus Hirschfeld to castrate 'Dora' (aka Rudolf) Richter in the early 1920s. It took him a decade to work out how to create a "neo-vagina" (sic) using skin grafts. The trans lobby once claimed Richter disappeared under the Nazis. He didn't.👉
3./ Richter died in 1966 at the age of 74. So much for the endless BS from LGBTQ+ activists about alleged Nazi targetting of "trans people". Nazis only really cared if a cross-dresser was gay. What though happened to the inventor of the 'sex change' op? advocate.com/transgender/jk…
1./ Why do the Greens now care more about Gaza than Gaia? My latest article explores the surprisingly dark history of the Greens. When the success of the German Greens turned them into a global model for environmentalists nobody seemed to notice the skeletons in their cupboard.
2./ Imitators in the UK and elsewhere failed to realise the German Greens were tapping into a tradition of antisemitism. In 1983 senior Green MP Werner Vogel was exposed as a former Nazi stormtrooper. That followed revelations about the party's spokesman ...August Haussleiter.👉
3./ In 1980 Haussleiter had to resign when it was revealed in WW2 he'd written a celebration of the Wehrmacht's ruthless behaviour on the Eastern Front. After the War he'd also flirted with Neo-Nazism. The Greens later selected him as a candidate for Berlin's local parliament.🤷♂️
