Just read that article and was about to start a thread on it!
This bit about the EHRC:
And as the MoS reports today, the watchdog has now cut ties with Stonewall, ending its own Stonewall Diversity Champions membership.
Is that right?
and these final paragraphs are blistering:
This isn’t just about the freedom of lesbians or gay men to form same-sex couples without stigma. It’s not just about the mad irony of someone with Allison Bailey’s progressive credentials being persecuted for wrongthink by the charity that should be her staunchest ally. It’s also about the sinister power of a multi-million-pound lobbying giant, with tentacles that reach deep into hundreds of public and private organisations, to use that power to silence anyone that deviates from woke orthodoxy.
Do our Government and public bodies still care about the freedom of ordinary citizens to dissent from progressive dogma?
Or does Stonewall have such a stranglehold on our institutions that even an impeccably Left-wing black lesbian barrister will find herself ‘stonewalled’ for voicing heretical views?
The outcome of Allison Bailey’s case should concern us all.
I've said it before and I'll say it again there must be a public enquiry into Stonewall and their activities. Government and Charity Commission wake up and investigate this.
