@WingsScotland It’s very depressing isn’t it. We’re relying on getting a different government next time who will prioritise and solve this issue, and I’m not confident if any will. I fear Labour will follow Australia next and go after the legal definition of “woman” and “sex”
Straight woman disables replies so she can speak over any concerned lesbian or gay man.
This is Labour's Section 28.
You try to stop your lesbian teenage daughter getting testosterone off the dark web, they'll prosecute you but not the ghoul on the dark web.
@NoShirleyNo@SuellaBraverman@Jessica12uk 🤣 I don’t blame you. Who isn’t in this heat, with the government sterilising children and wanting to throw parents in prison for disagreeing to go along with it.
Imagine your lovely daughter comes home declaring she is trans and wants to go on testosterone and have her breasts removed. You plead with her to pause, wait and see how she feels in a year. Maybe you refuse financial support as you don't want to pay for this. Then she tells her school, uni, scout leader, priest or whoever. They report you to the police, you have your daughter taken into care and you could face up with five years in prison. It's not hypothetical, it's already happened in Canada, Aus, US and more. If you're not terrified by this you don't understand what's happening.
The puberty blockers trial and the promised conversion therapy bill are both solutions looking for a problem.
The actual thing they are trying to solve is how to legitimise the idea of adult transexualism as being an in born trait which requires extreme societal accommodation.
MORALLY BANKRUPT AND IDEOLOGICALLY CORRUPT
The state want your children.
The actions of this Government are seriously disturbing and completely indefensible.
In the week they chose to carry out damaging medical experiments on children to stop their puberty, they also announced they want to imprison parents who don’t affirm a confused child’s delusion that they are in the ‘wrong body’.
Their Bill to end conversion therapy, will ensure that children who would otherwise be gay, or autistic, will now be hurried along the path to chemical castration and lifetime medical care.
Utterly horrific. Shame on all of them.

@Alisdisgrace@Jebadoo2 And I’m sure, like me, you’d be prepared to stand in court and show the world that the U.K. has lost its marbles when we all get sent to prison!
@SelenaAnaRg@FondOfBeetles They do end you’re right, but most don’t end with your husband declaring he’s a woman and saying you’re now in a lesbian marriage, and if you use his name you’re deadnaming him (the clue to why the women calling themselves trans widows is right there….)
@NoShirleyNo@SuellaBraverman@Jessica12uk That is true but Suella and Kemi were willing to speak out before most of the rest. I’ll never forget this crept in under the Tories but it’s getting much worse under Labour
Labour is now committed to its section 28 on steroids
Let’s remember: section 28 was a horrendous law that intimidated teachers and others, suppressed the dissemination of information about homosexuality.
It was homophobic and it was awful.
But it did not create a criminal offence.
It did not prescribe penalties.
The Labour Party’s draft bill to ban “conversion practices” is also homophobic. It also sets out to suppress the dissemination of information.
But it is far, far worse than section 28
It will criminalize a parent who says: “No, you’re a boy. Maybe you’re gay. That’s fine: Let’s get you some therapy to explore the causes of your distress.”
It will criminalize a parent who says “No, I refuse to pay for binders, blockers, testosterone. You’re a girl. It’s fine to be a lesbian.”
Such conversations may cause extreme distress. The minor may call them abusive.
We’re talking about a criminal offence of refusing to allow your child to take harmful drugs. Of suggesting she might be a lesbian - not a boy. Of refusing to go along with her insistent demands.
***With a potential 5-year prison sentence.•***
Let’s stop Labour’s Section 28!
We will not accept this latest iteration of anti gay and anti lesbian legislation - however well it is dressed up to look “progressive.”
🚨Breaking: The UK government has published a draft ‘Conversion Practices Bill’🚨
As expected, it is an utter nightmare. The fact that Stonewall is celebrating tells you everything you need to know.
On the week that it pushed forward with the puberty blockers trial, the government may now rob children of the opportunity to become comfortable in their own bodies.
It includes no exemption for parents. Parents who try to dissuade their children from ‘transitioning’ could be criminalised and put in prison for 5 years.
It further enshrines the notion of ‘transgender identity’ in the law and makes the offence ridiculously broad: “conduct causing someone to believe that they have or do not have a transgender identity”.
It further enshrines the notion of being ‘non-binary’ in the law.
The protection for therapists and other medical professionals is severely lacking, with a test of ‘reasonableness’ created. There is also a low threshold for what constitutes ‘abuse’.
Make no mistake about it, this Bill will criminalising talking. It poses a significant threat to freedom of speech, religious freedoms and to the safeguarding of vulnerable children.
It must not be allowed to become law.
@Sorelle_Arduino If she has coped with a baby moving around inside of her (I absolutely hated it, felt like I had an alien inside), she can cope with giving birth. Once she’s in labour and squeezing that baby out, I can guarantee “dysphoria” will be the last thing on her mind!
@WHLeavitt@Welshwitchey@elonmusk Definitely yes. I don’t think the women of the U.K. would be winning its war against gender ideology without it, as we had nowhere to go before without being barred.
