🧵If you think Labour are going to uphold biological reality, think again:

Keir Starmer (Leader) - Believes that ‘1 in 1000’ women have a penis.

Angela Rayner (Deputy Leader) - Has committed to introducing self-ID, telling trans activists “your fight is our fight”.

(1/20) Anneliese Dodds (Shadow Women and Equalities) - Believes that we should recognise ‘non-binary’ sex out of “respect”.

Rachel Reeves (Shadow Chancellor) - Has said people should be able to identify as any sex they like “whatever their body parts are”.

🚨The College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (@cosrtnews) are teaching therapists “don’t yuk someone’s yum” when it comes to “bestiality/animal play”.

Those arguing animals can’t consent to sex are told: “animals don’t consent to anything…so that isn’t argument enough”. The trainer then brings up a man who had a sexual interest with chickens (“dead or alive”).

The sole concern was that he became a chef and was advised “don’t do anything with chickens at work”.

Therapists are then told that the most popular dog fetish is for golden retrievers.

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:
(1/14) 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.

🚨Important Thread 🧵- Times Radio Interview With ‘Gender Plus’:

Today, an interview was released with Dr Aidan Kelly, the Clinical Director of ‘Gender Plus’, a new private clinic for children.

We should be extremely concerned about the work and ethos of this clinic:
(1/15) Kelly stated that “there are easier ways of earning a living”.

What Kelly didn’t say is that ‘Gender Plus’ is charging £275 for a single one-hour appointment.

Charging vulnerable children and their families such an amount seems like a very easy way to earn a living.

🚨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?

🧵Thread - 10 Contradictions of Gender Ideology:

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)

🧵Thread - Iain Anderson’s Car Crash Interview:

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) Image 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.

🧵Westminster Political Party Leaders and Sex vs Gender:

As we begin, very slowly, to gear up towards the next General Election, I decided to take a look at where the leaders of our elected political parties in Westminster stand on the ongoing debate around sex vs gender:
(1/12) Keir Starmer (Labour):

Keir believes that ‘1 in 1,000’ women have a penis.

He proposes banning ‘conversion therapy’, which could criminalise therapists and parents who don’t affirm medical transition.

He supports legislation, which could criminalise misgendering someone.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

🧵Thread: Celebrating CEO of Stonewall, Nancy Kelley:

Given today’s sad news that Nancy Kelley is leaving Stonewall at the end of this month, I thought it would be a nice send off for her to compile the greatest achievements she presided over during the past 3 years:
(1/13) We witnessed the disintegration of Stonewall’s ‘Diversity Champions Programme’, with swathes of organisations leaving the scheme altogether.

One government minister even stated that he was “delighted” when his department announced that it was cutting ties with Stonewall.

🧵Thread - Ideological Capture of University of the Arts London (@UAL):

We are witnessing gender ideology sweep across higher education. One such example is UAL.

Having been contacted by concerned staff and students, here are some of their most concerning materials:
(1/10) In February, this was sent as part of communications to all staff and students.

It details a photography student’s project on ‘queer tattoo artists’. It shows off double mastectomy scars.

This can be properly described as the glorification of bodily mutilation. (2/10)

🧵Thread: Westminster Debate on ‘Sex’ - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

This crucial debate showcased many MPs standing up for biological reality.

However, worrying numbers sought to mislead and throw abuse.

Here are the most concerning statements made during the debate:
(1/18) Dame Angela Eagle (Labour):

Angela called Miriam Cates “deliberatively provocative” for raising concerns about threats to women and sexualisation of children.

Just a few moments later she suggested those concerned with gender ideology are “bigots”.

Pure hypocrisy.

For daring to say that children should not be prescribed irreversible and harmful puberty blockers, I was expelled from my Masters’ degree.

As of yesterday, it is official NHS England policy.

Yet, I remain expelled.

🧵Thread - The 24 Lies of Emily Bridges

For my sins, I have compiled list of every lie spouted in Bridges’ statement:

1. Nobody has been ‘banned’ from racing. Everyone remains fully entitled to take part in sporting categories corresponding to their biological sex.
(1/11) 2. British Cycling do have the authority in this conversation. They are the governing body.

3. There is zero correlation between the funding of British Cycling and the government’s migration policy.

4. The UK government does not violently clamp down on dissent.

🧵THREAD: CHILDLINE POSE SAFEGUARDING RISK TO CHILDREN

I have become increasingly concerned by what Childline (as an arm of the @NSPCC) are exposing young, vulnerable and impressionable children to.

Here are the most worrying materials I have come across (with links):
(1/12) In a Message Board, a 14-year-old girl describes wanting cross-sex hormones because her period makes her feel ‘dysphoric’.

A ‘trans guy’ advises her to start hormones without her parents’ knowledge.

No Childline moderator intervenes.

I feel sick. This is beyond atrocious.

This ‘non-binary sex therapist’, speaking in a documentary about Bill Cosby, suggests we:

“Create a sex positive world where someone is able to pay conscious women to come and be drugged for a fetish for having sex with unconscious people” For those asking, this was aired on the BBC. It is called ‘We Need to Talk about Cosby. It is a documentary about the long-standing sexual assault allegations against Bill Cosby…

Thread 🧵- Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week

There are activists telling children that if they don’t hear “birds singing” when they look at others, they might be aromantic.

Here are some official ‘aromantic identities’ (each with their own flag) being pushed on children: (1/6) Aegoromantic – Those who enjoy the concept of romance but do not have a desire to participate in romantic activities.

Cupioromantic – Those who do not experience attraction but do desire a romantic relationship.

🧵THREAD WARNING - WELSH SHEEP

Following Scotland’s worrying lurch towards ideology, Wales have published an ‘LGBTQ+ Action Plan’, seeking to make Wales “the most LGBTQ+ friendly nation in Europe”.

There are serious concerns regarding the proposals contained in the plan:
(1/11) From the very outset, they make “clear” the Welsh government’s position is that “trans women are women, trans men are men”.

For a government to be choosing ideology over reality and biology, and in such strong terms, is very worrying indeed.

THREAD WARNING - SCOTLAND:

Not content with undermining child welfare and women’s rights by introducing ‘self-ID’, Scotland now seeks to cause greater harm by banning ‘conversion practices’. Here are key concerns following their ‘Expert Advisory Group’ recommendations. (1/9) 1. They seek to replicate similar legislation recently introduced in Victoria, Australia.

Shockingly, official guidance in Victoria states that a parent who does not support their child receiving puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones may be guilty of a criminal offence. (2/9)

This is being taught to primary school students in the UK.

It is subtle indoctrination that gives children the message that to be comfortable in their own body is to be boring or uncool.

This is abusive. Image For those who would like the view the entire education pack.

A significant number of primary schools around the country use materials produced by The Proud Trust.
