UK Conservatives Hellbent to Appease LGBT Lobby

„What we need is for our government to take a page out of the Hungarian government's book and show courage in protecting children,” said Lucy Marsh of the Family Education Trust in an interview with our newspaper. She pointed out that in the UK, the legal environment obliges children to attend sex education, which, in many cases, is outsourced by schools to uncontrollable third parties (NGOs). The charity's representative emphasized how she would like her own government to remember that they should, in fact, be conservative.

– What did you identify as major threats in kids being exposed to gender ideology?

– There have been quite a few reports over here in the past year on this topic. There was a report done by Lottie Moore from Policy Exchange. She conducted some large-scale research involving quite a large number of schools. It revealed that a big percentage of schools will socially transition children without their parent's knowledge or consent. They keep it secret at school. So your daughter could be going to school and a girl's uniform and then getting to school and getting changed to a boy's uniform and all the teachers are using male pronouns and a new male name for your daughter and you've got no idea that that's happening. They're keeping that a secret from parents. 

What's happening is that many more vulnerable children, i.e. kids with special educational needs – such as autistic children who are particularly vulnerable to this kind of gender ideology – together with the children who are more socially awkward or a bit isolated, find it difficult to make friends. They're being taught this ideology and are being told that „well, if you're struggling, if you've got anxiety, you're struggling to make friends, then you could have been born in the wrong body.” A lot of these children are thinking, oh, well, that's the reason for my problems. „The reason why I'm unhappy, is because I'm not really a girl. I'm a boy.”

Or the other way around, the boys think that they're girls. And unfortunately, the pathway for these children is that they're socially transitioned and they're affirmed by adults at school as saying yes, you are born in the wrong body. The next step for them is to start taking puberty blockers to stop them from developing adult sex characteristics. And then the next stage after that, as we already know from the scandal with the gender identity services on the National Health Service (NHS), is that the majority of children take puberty blockers go on to opposite sex hormones, cross-sex hormones, and these carry several irreversible health risks. Infertility, the inability to ever experience sexual pleasure, all kinds of health risks... Risks to the bone not developing properly, higher risks of cancer and heart problems, and all kinds of things that can go wrong with this type of medical affirmation. So this is a "perfect storm," a bad situation that is particularly harmful.

– Hungary is implementing a large-scale conservative agenda on issues such as child protection and restricting exposition to gender propaganda in protecting the parents' right to education. Has Hungary ever appeared on your horizon?

– One of my former colleagues has been looking more into what was happening in Hungary. We often have talks about the policies that the Hungarian government implemented in pursuit of reversing these tendencies.

Yeah, I mean we're admiring what's happening in Hungary.

We could only wish and hope that our own government would remember that they're actually supposed to be conservative. 

There are not many conservatives in the conservative party at the moment. They just seem hellbent on pleasing the LGBT lobby. Some government departments also seem to be captive to such influence, including the Department of Education, which is completely ruled by Stonewall, the big LGBT rights activist movement. 

There are a few,  dissenting voices and some excellent MPs who do stand up and take on the opposing side, such as Miriam Cates, who is one of the leading voices to speak out against gender ideology and safeguarding children from inappropriate sex education. She was the MP who managed to get a review of the relationships and sex education. That's happening at the moment. But we need more people who are prepared to actually stand up for this, and more MPs to speak out.

– How committed is the UK government on this issue?

– The government has promised to bring out some guidance to schools on dealing with transgender children. Well, to be honest, even having a report that states that some children are „transgender” is a problem these days, in terms of the wording. But there are several MPs, including Miriam Cates and others, who are standing up publicly against it. They've been calling for a blanket ban on gender ideology in schools saying that no child should be allowed to socially transition to living with the opposite sex at school. And that gender ideology mustn't be taught.

However, the leaked guidance from the government's report is going to include that they will allow „some children to socially transition under some circumstances.” We don't know as yet what these circumstances will be. But in my opinion, it's going to be impossible to carry this out safely.

Because even if they allow one student, what does that mean for all the other kids? Do all other kids need be subjected to compelled speech where they've got to refer to a girl as a boy using the „he” pronoun? What about the bathrooms and changing rooms and sports, and what about the teachers? Do teachers get to be compelled to refer to these children as the kids request? It's just going to be impossible to make it work, in reality. This still allows teachers who are either LGBTQ activists, or provide floor to these LGBTQ activists, to continue promoting their agenda. So what we need is for our government to take a page out of the Hungarian government's book and show courage in protecting children.
