The patron of a defunct LGBT charity, which encouraged children to question the gender binary, has been charged with multiple counts of child sex abuse. The Telegraph has more.
Stephen Ireland, 40, is facing a total of 37 charges, including rape of a child under 13, six counts of making indecent photographs of children and two counts of causing a child to engage in sexual activity.
For 15 of the alleged offences, the founder of Pride in Surrey was jointly charged alongside David Sutton, 26.
Ireland was listed as a director for Pride in Surrey until June of this year, while Sutton was a former volunteer for the charity, according to Mail Online.
Sutton, who, like Ireland, is from Addlestone, Surrey, was also charged with seven further offences, including three counts of making indecent photographs of children.
The multiple offences, which the pair were formally charged with at Staines Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, date from August 2022 to last month.
They were both remanded in custody to appear at Guildford Crown Court on September 12.
One of Ireland’s social media accounts describes him as a patron of charity Educate and Celebrate, which claimed to equip and empower “school communities to tackle and reduce homophobia, biphobia and transphobia”.
The charity ran Pride workshops for primary and secondary school pupils, which included “How to break the binary and be gender inclusive”, according to its former website.
However, the organisation, which shut down earlier this year, came under fire for a number of controversies before its closure.
In 2022 trans woman Jordan Gray, a patron of the charity, prompted nearly 1,500 Ofcom complaints when the performer stripped-off during a live Channel 4 show before appearing to play a piano with their penis.
The comedian had previously described going into schools to “talk about gender” on behalf of Educate and Celebrate, adding that “toddlers kind of get it straight away”.
However, the defunct charity removed the performer as a patron following the skit and went on to say in a statement that Gray had “never gone into schools” on its behalf nor had been asked to carry out work for the organisation.
Dr Elly Barnes, the charity’s founder, had previously advised teachers that it is permissible not to tell parents if a pupil declares themselves to be transgender and also said that terms such as “boys”, “girls”, “son” and “mother” should be replaced with the gender-neutral words “pupils”, “students”, “child” and “parent”.
Last year, Educate & Celebrate was asked to remove references to Ofsted on its website following a demand to do so from the school inspectorate.
The charity had been listed as an Ofsted-recognised “best practice” programme on multiple primary school websites.
However, a spokesperson for the watchdog confirmed it did not not endorse any resource providers.

What an utter surprise that one of their number turns out to be a nonce. You don’t have to be possessed of great insight to to see that the impetus behind this agenda is access to small children.It’s grubby and nasty and not something that you might want to dwell on but just imbibe the flavour of the movement. Why would you want to sexually abuse children, It says a lot about your world view and your attitude towards posterity,
Oh what a surprise.
I fell off my chair.
It is truly unbelievable that one of the elect should behave in such a way. There must be a mistake surely.
Like all the feathers and makeup disguise the intentions.The child is the father of the man. He needs to be filled with the warrior spirit from as early as possible. Getting shafted by some fat monstrosity wearing plumage isn’t going to cut it. Maybe this is normal in England these days. I remember living in Belfast as a small child and the adults going on about English child rapists and I thought it was a bit much. I didn’t get assaulted other than a few old men in public toilets trying to touch me up. But now I see it. It is so ingrained in British culture the sexualisation of children.
No, it isn’t “engrained in British culture”.
Catholic Church child protection board received 252 abuse allegations – The Irish Times
I remember a couple of years ago there was a social media group called’ Stop the Daily Mail sexualising our children’. And they really do. They dress up seven year old girls and boys to look quite mouth-watering to dried out boomers. They know the buttons to push. how to dress them, to make them look like little f-dolls. This is your culture and your posterity.
I’m a Christian but sometimes I wonder if living a Muslim culture would actually be more tolerable than the degenerate nihilism of these perverts.
Maybe you should ask the 1400 English children gang-raped by Muslims, mostly from Pakistan, in English towns like Rotherham.
Not to mention the girls and women within the Muslim community that are abused and terrified into silence.
That is Islam’s problem, not ours.
No, it’s the women and girls problem.
You’d think the law would protect them, but under Two-Tier Keir, “Justice” looks at the colour, ethnicity and religion of the men and turns a blind eye.
FALSE!
Muslim women and girls follow the precepts of their Islamic religion, which allows every Muslim man to have FOUR WIVES, as long as he can support them and their multiple children financially, which is easy on welfare benefits in the West, in flagrant violation of our laws against BIGAMY and POLYGAMY. Islam also allows Muslim men to beat their wives.
It is THEIR PROBLEM to sort out, NOT OURS.
No one ever voted for Mass Immigration from the Third World into the West.
They are here in violation of the democratic will of the Indigenous British People. They have been brought here without the consent of the British People, whose Ethnic European= “white” ancestors built Britain into a great nation.
So you don’t think that we should help them escape the precepts of their mediaeval culture and be valued as people instead of chattels?
Be VERY careful what you wish for!
It has been with us for a long time. Selling a young child as a virgin was very common in the nineteenth century. Sometimes perverts would claim to be outraged in that the child clearly wasn’t a virgin.I wouldn’t say that Islam is necessarily any better when it comes to female child abuse. Iti s more codified and less perverted but nonetheless still abusive,.The perversion though in England is on a whole different level. As a man you shouldn’t be getting an erection thinking about sex with a small child. I listened to a seminar from an abuse investigator and she was talking about how the latest perversion is to have sex with a baby just coming out of the womb. This is a step too far.There is no real pleasure to be found in the defiling of things.
Tell it to the 1400 English children gang-raped by Muslims in Rotherham, mostly from Pakistan.
All the perversions you mentioned are approved in the Koran, as long as the child is at least 3 years old. You should try learning more about the true beliefs of Islam.
And yet, two Englishmen whose Paedophile Hunter group have exposed 440 online predators to police and helped track them down, have both been jailed for mocking Muslims !!!
This is just unbelievable injustice, Creeping Sharia Law, and criminalising all criticism of Islam !!!
“Phil Hoban, 48, the founder of the “paedophile hunter” Predator Exposure group, has been sentenced to eight months in prison after pleading guilty to racial abuse towards pro-Palestinian counter-protesters during a non-violent anti-mass migration demonstration in Leeds on August 3rd.”
“Hoban also said that he has decided to step down from the Predator Exposure group that he founded, a decision that he said had “really gutted me”. He claimed to have exposed 440 “online predators”.
The group was instrumental in the jailing of former Irish television producer Kieran Creavan, who was jailed for ten years for the sexual assault and exploitation of children following a sting operation by Predator Exposure, in which Creavan was tricked into thinking he was meeting with a 13-year-old girl.”
“During his trial, Hoban said that he had worked with police on numerous occasions to track down paedophiles.”
“Alongside Hoban, James Gettings, 35, was also jailed for eight months by the Leeds Magistrates Court for “religiously aggravated harassment/alarm/distress by using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour or disorderly behaviour” during the same August 3rd protest.
“Like Hoban, the court was told that Gettings had mocked the manner in which Muslim people pray.”
UK Man Jailed After Mocking Muslims at Non-Violent Anti-Migration Protest (breitbart.com)
And guess who’s the police official in charge there?
“Commenting on the cases, Assistant Chief Constable [?Pakistani? Muslim] Osman Khan of the West Yorkshire Police said:
“Our investigations into those involved in disorder continue and we remain absolutely determined to identify and take firm action against all those who have offended.”
“There is absolutely no place for disorder offences or racially aggravated offending in our county and I can promise that those who seem to think that it is acceptable to behave in this way WILL BE HUNTED DOWN AND LOCKED UP.”
He added ‘there might even be a trial first’
Spot on. And you can bet they’ll put those two courageous British Patriots and Paedophile Hunters into a Muslim-prisoner-controlled prison, like they did to Tommy Robinson, throwing them to the wolves.
To use the language in the last article, I am floored! Who knew?!
It isn’t a stretch to call it the English disease.I don’t understand it because a child does not have a developed sexual identity and for me the essence of sexuality has to be at least reciprocation. Perhaps it is just a by-product of a materialistic world view. Why do you want to mess people up surely the world is already in trouble. And what pleasure is there to be had from a seven year old dick or vagina; You shouldn’t even be hankering after those things. It is a clouded mindset in my view.
You show your total ignorance of Islam. And Hinduism, Judaism, etc.
It is not “the English disease”— it is the Satanic Perversion of Humanity, and occurs all over the world, even religiously sanctioned.
We shall rejoice, rejoice, rejoice

Don’t have sex with animals either. I read about a dog brothel in Croatia where you can have a go at a golden retriever for £60 a pop. Don’t do it even if you feel an inner calling it is wrong. In philosophy it is called the de-ontological argument – that some things are just deeply wrong regardless of intentions or consequences.
But in Islam, it is acceptable, because the “innocent rapist” has been “tempted” by the goat, for example. The “innocent rapist” must kill the “guilty goat”, but is forbidden to eat the meat, and must sell it in the next town to unsuspecting buyers.
A few years ago, Google analysts revealed that the two countries with the most online searches for raping animals were Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.
Yes I can see that. Personally I would argue that the goat is innocent in that it is highly unlikely that a goat would be flirting with a man. It is also to do with rural societies. In Wales at least one in four men have their first sexual experience with a sheep. I am not knocking it they must have their reasons. If they long for a human female then it isn’t difficult to see how a sheep’s backside might be a viable alternative.
You are missing the point entirely, and deliberately.
In Islam, that type of Sodomy is RELIGIOUSLY SANCTIONED.
Well, having grown up in Wales, sex with sheep was a standing joke to insult others, but one in four supposedly doing it, absolutely not. I heard that someone from Llangollen was caught trying it 30+ years ago and was convicted but given a lenient sentence as he’d ‘suffered enough from his former friends and neighbours”
‘Their penis’
Well colour me shocked.
No-one could possibly have foreseen this.
“…when the performer stripped-off during a live Channel 4 show before appearing to play a piano with their penis.” Ahem, …”his penis”. There, put that right for you.
I have been calling out the ‘trans’ issues for the last 3 years as a cover for those attracted to Minors eg paedophiles. It is believed up to 9% of any society have an unhealthy ‘interest’ in young children regardless of their culture or background and it is as old as time.
It should go without saying, but I will say it anyway. The fact that the odd “bad apple” here and there turns out to be a nonce, does not reflect on the entire LGBT+ community. Most real-life nonces self-identify as straight, in fact.
