It’s strange, isn’t it? When we talk about the Post Office scandal, everyone agrees it was a horrific series of miscarriages of justice. Innocent people had their lives and reputations destroyed. Some were imprisoned. Some took their own lives. Others died still living under the cloud of false accusations. Whistleblowers were ignored. Alarm bells rang. Politicians put their fingers in their ears. And the suffering continued. Nobody disputes that this was a terrible scandal. But what if I told you that another horrifying scandal is unfolding right now, one that is arguably even worse? What if I told you that vulnerable children are being harmed, their lives irrevocably changed by healthcare professionals following an ideology promoted by government, the media, schools and corporations? And that, despite the evidence being publicly available, most people have little idea of the scale of the harm, how many children have already been affected or how many continue to be harmed? How many people know that @nickwallis, the investigative journalist who played a pivotal role in exposing the Post Office scandal, is now investigating this issue, believing it’s a “huge” story. I’m talking, of course, about trans ideology. The brainwashing of vulnerable children into believing there are multiple genders, that they may have been born in the wrong body, and that life-altering medication or even surgery might make them happier. This has been going on for years, and it is happening now. The BBC has been front and centre in promoting this ideology. A generation of young people has been encouraged to believe that biological sex is irrelevant and that what really matters is their gender “identity”. The harms are manifold. Yet because so much of the progressive left has invested in this ideology, the truth is emerging painfully slowly. Those who raise safeguarding concerns are too often dismissed or vilified rather than heard. Just as with the Post Office scandal, I believe the full horror will explode into the public consciousness in the years ahead. But this time, the responsibility will be far more widely spread. If you care about children, particularly the most vulnerable, you should care about this. This isn’t simply about men using women’s toilets, although the subjugation of biological women’s rights and safeguards to the demands of trans-identifying men is appalling in itself. It’s about vulnerable children, the adults who are supposed to protect them, and the irreversible consequences of putting ideology ahead of safeguarding. The harm being inflicted on children in the name of trans ideology is unforgivable.
