RT @ConservativeLGB: @ALLIANCELGB @BBC @BBCNewsnight Have you taken leave of your senses, @BBC? Gay, lesbian & autistic kids get ground down into a homophobic transing machine, & @BBCNewsnight does something brave & reports on it. Then, ...
RT @deb_cohen: - some parents appeared to prefer their children to be transgender and straight rather than gay, pushing them towards transition The Tavistock Trust says GIDS is a safe and caring service. It said it strongly refutes the allegations ...
RT @deb_cohen: @hannahsbee and my investigation found some staff said: - they were discouraged from voicing concerns about children’s welfare to lead safeguarding officer & referring cases where they feared abuse to social services - medical ...
The lack of joined-up thinking is horrifying. https://t.co/b2X53L...
We really hope, after this extraordinary exposé, that people will finally wake up to what is happening. The transing of gay and lesbian kids is happening right under our noses. It must be stopped. Well done @BBCNewsnight. Better late than never.
Are you blind, @bbc? After this searing @BBCNewsnight report, you offer viewers who need help a list of organisations. Those are precisely the organisations that refer kids to GIDS: it is they that are responsible for encouraging gay and lesbian kids ...
When will you remove these recommendations @BBC? We have just seen a report on @BBCNewsnight that makes it crystal clear that gay and lesbian kids are being needlessly medicalised because of homophobia. #NoTransingAwayTheG...

RT @HanoverHussy: @BBCNewsnight For those going... errr Wtaf... please watch this amazing analysis of those pushing gender identity and the harms it does https://t.co/GEVzXm... @Womans_Place_UK @BBCWomansHour #CourageCalls #donoharm #detrans ...
Tune in to @BBCNewsnight this evening. Perhaps, just perhaps, they will cover this issue fairly and highlight the concerns raised by former clinicians about fast-tracking kids down a path of medicalization when many are actually gay or lesbian. ...
More irresponsible reporting from the @nytimes. Make no mistake, they will be backtracking soon enough, when the lawsuits mount up and the public gradually realizes that it has been marveling at fool’s gold. Giving girls testosterone is not ...
RT @trustno1new: @ALLIANCELGB @GMB As a happy lesbian with short hair and a motorbike I was asked in an LGBT forum not to share my story as it might confuse trans teens. WTF? LGB Alliance is my only safe space now.
Why in heaven’s name would Mermaids send a new message to a child who had unsubscribed from their mailing list because of inappropriate material, and in that new message request his address? We’re having trouble processing this. ...
RT @LilyLilyMaynard: An Egyptian lesbian is arrested & tortured (& later kills herself) after waving a rainbow flag at a gig, while a young woman who transitioned is celebrated & interviewed on Egyptian TV. What is the message here for ...
That same-sex marriage tweet was very badly formulated! The introduction of same-sex marriage was a great breakthrough for gay people. But support for it wasn’t universal among LGB activists: many saw it as a sellout - joining the establishment. A ...
To those people saying it is “homophobic” not to be in favour of gay marriage have a look at the statistics. It seems it’s rather a small minority who have made their wedding vows. #LGBIssues #CanWeDropItNowPlea... #NotABigDeal #PluralityOfViewsIs...
Of course we favour good, age-appropriate Relationship and Sex Education. Including teaching kids about gay and lesbian relationships and diverse families. NOT Stonewall's gender mumbo-jumbo. This superb review explains. https://t.co/Ldi3Cc...

RT @LynneKeys3: Another much needed piece of lesbian & gay history. Particularly interesting to hear a description of the Stonewall Inn customers. (@ALLIANCELGB @FredSargeant ) https://t.co/obAnB4...
RT @HJoyceGender: @ejm_bo @worriedmumofone @blablafishcakes @ResistersUK @Womans_Place_UK @Transgendertrd @WomenUnitingUK I know it’s self-serving, but all my articles are linked to on my website https://t.co/15r1gC... - The one called ‘the new ...
The refusal to engage has been such a disappointment. We and many others have been trying to set up a respectful discussion for the past three years. We have written to @Nancy_M_K just as we wrote to @ruth_hunt asking to meet with us. No response. ...
Hi @BorisJohnson @10DowningStreet @trussliz We represent thousands of LGB people who would like to see a respectful debate to find a good way forward for everyone: LGB people, women in general, and trans people. Emotional manipulation is unhelpful. ...
We are very happy to hear you want to work with all sides @Keir_Starmer and look forward to meeting up to start rebuilding trust. https://t.co/dSa32I...
