Trans Lobbying Group Stonewall Is Behind Gender Policies at 30 NHS Trusts

by Richard Eldred
14 August 2023 1:00 PM

Controversial LGBT lobby group, Stonewall, has helped to draft, or overseen, the gender policies of up to 30 NHS trusts. The Mail has more.

The LGBT charity, known for its radical stance on trans rights, suggested “improvements” to one hospital’s guidance, was listed as a “contributor” to another and “validated” a third.

It is currently providing “support” to another trust as it formulates its policy on caring for transgender patients.

Many trusts cited Stonewall, along with the scandal-hit trans youth charity Mermaids, as reputable sources of information. Last night a source close to Health Secretary Steve Barclay said he was “appalled” that some NHS managers were engaged in “woke virtue-signalling” by using outside groups to advise on equality issues despite his previous guidance against doing so.

It comes even as Stonewall has seen dozens of public sector bodies, including the Department of Health and Social Care, quit its ‘Diversity Champions’ advisory scheme in recent years.

A source close to Mr. Barclay said: “The Health Secretary has been clear that equality issues in healthcare services should be dealt with by normal management processes rather than by bringing in external providers. 

“He is appalled to hear some managers are failing to respond and will be discussing with officials what further steps to take. NHS trusts and other health bodies should be relentlessly focused on caring for all patients and cutting waiting lists, not wasting time and money on woke virtue-signalling.” …

Women‘s Rights Network founder Heather Binning said: “The guidelines use the language of gender ideology repeatedly, and explicitly note that activist organisations including Stonewall helped to write them. They are representing the law as Stonewall would like it to be, not how it is.” Tory MP Nick Fletcher said: “It is unacceptable that the NHS continues to place the safety and privacy of women at risk because of ideological capture by a tiny but vocal lobbying group.”

Worth reading in full.

Stop Press: For an example of how Stonewall’s guidance is applied in the NHS, see this story about how some NHS trusts are threatening employees with disciplinary action and even prosecution if they fail to use a colleague’s correct pronouns.

Stop Press 2: Lukasz Sakowski issues a warning to parents everywhere in the Mail after being manipulated into changing sex when he was just 14 by a 40 year-old transsexual.

Stop Press 3: CNN has helpfully published a guide to using neo-pronouns: “For someone who uses the nounself pronoun ‘leaf’, that may look like: ‘I hope leaf knows how proud we are that leaf is getting to know leafself better!’”

One small mercy here in England is that the fine old art of taking the piss hasn’t completely died out yet. It’s the only thing we have left. Orwell remarked in the 1940s that jackbooted fascism would never take hold in England because people would just laugh at it. I think that still holds true.

Okay, let’s just use “kraut” and leave it at that. I’m happy being called a “rosbif” by the French.

Same problem. Germans must not claim that they have an existence decoupled from administrative acts of the FRG authorities as this would imply that people who are not German also exist and while many of these people who are not German would very much insist that they’re not German, Germans themselves mustn’t claim this.

The Germans have no access to alternative media and are totally propagandised and have been for at least 40 years.
Finally the young have realised they have no chance and are looking to AFD to change their world and their dopey parents and grandparents are just following ze orders.

Japan and Germany can you imagine what they could’ve been. Even the cleverest countries have succumbed to dumbing down in the last few decades. What is this malign force exactly it has so many in its grasp.

Control the words and you control the mind.

I had no idea Germany had ritualised brainwashing.

The German language lends itself particularly to this type of thought control. It really helped a certain Austrian.

Come off it. Don’t you know their history (hint: 1930 – 1945).

That would be 1933 and around that time, fascist regimes existed (probably not an exhaustive list) at least in Poland, Austria, Hungary, Italy and Spain, making this a pretty normal phenomenon. But only small subset of these had so-called “antifascist laws” by them Anglo-Russo-Americo-Saxons force installed onto them of which events like the one described in the article are a direct consequence.

That’s your system and not ours.

Liberal Fascism was alive and well under Roosevelt and Wilson before him.

German industry is interesting. Excellence in a few particular fields without any venture into other fields that you might expect from an industrial power. This is not an accident and it is key to understanding the situation. They gained a lot from being the Yank’s well- fed donkey. Now they get a taste of what their masters really thought of them. Blow up your pipelines, make you miserable, cold and unemployed. With the Anglo-Americans it isn’t a matter of if they will betray you it is always a matter of when.

It’s quite astonishing.
No doubt that good old Uncle Sam shafted Germany – and the EU – by blowing up Nordstream.
So we all buy ultra expensive LPG from – guess who?

That said the EU and us, buy Russian Gas/oil from, er India, – but that ‘s OK.
What a fucking world

Another word the ‘lefties’ frequently use is Deutschtürke to denote someone with a German passport who wouldn’t ever dream of denouncing his roots of being ethnically Turkish¹. In the past, I’ve asked if, provided that German-Turks (Deutschtürken) exist, there are perhaps also German-Germans (Deutschdeutsche) and Turk-Turks (Türktürken) but never got a reply.

The reality is – of course – that the German ruling caste passionately hates Germans and would love nothing better than to wipe them off the face of the earth as this would be the ultimate proof that they’re really not Germans, that is, Nazis, themselves. And that’s despite the German basic law still refers to the ius sanguinis codified during the German empire and that attempts to define ethnic Germans out of existence only started when Gerhard Schröder became chancellor for the first time (1998).

¹ At least a very large minority of these people actually wouldn’t ever dream of referring to themselves as German. They’re using the Turkish word for German, alman, to peioratively denote Germans as something entirely different from their much more worthy community.
