Welcome to this special episode of the Sceptic with James Esses, writer, campaigner and co-founder of Thoughtful Therapists.
Back in 2021, James was a hard-working part-time Master’s student in psychotherapy at the Metanoia Institute in London. In his spare time, he was also raising concerns online about the impact that transgender ideology – and the so-called gender-affirming approach to care – was having on vulnerable children. He never imagined that doing so would lead to him being kicked off his course without so much as an appeal. Three years later, he’s taken his college and the U.K. Council for Psychotherapy to court for that – and won.
James joins Laurie on this episode to tell his story. They also speak about his research into how our institutions have been infiltrated by trans ideology; the impact of the Cass Review; the threat trans ideology still poses to kids; and why it’s up to adults to protect them; and much more.

Well, what a surprise. And will the T publish an article blaming the former Gov? (I’m not going to hold my breath for that).
Lockdowns as called for by all mainstream parties, including and especially Labour, and as supported by I think all of the Labour supporting Trade Unions, especially the teachers union.
Basic Maths question for the children: How does a finite variable appear on a curve to infinity?
OK, I’ll bite. I think I’m OK at arithmetic but probably not at ‘maths’.
This might be a question to which the kids these days are taught the answer. I was for example, perplexed when my granddaughter started talking about ‘split digraphs’ and ‘level 3 phonics’ – and then discovered that she was talking about the letter ‘i’ being pronounced ‘eye’ if the word ends in a letter ‘e’ (like) and ‘ea’ being pronounced ‘ee’ under some circumstances (tea often springs to mind).
So at a guess. If the variable represents a finite value and the curve goes to infinity, the point representing the variable must be on the base line. (edit: on the origin).
How did I do?
SoR (aged sixty-something – I’ve lost count).
Reeling and Writhing of course… and the different branches of arithmetic: ambition, distraction, uglification, and derision.
creation of the Epsilon breed is going well it seems, Conservatives and Labour must be very pleased, as I am sure are their controllers in the WEF, and the U.N
