The topic of Police neutrality is getting a lot of attention

Sorry posted too soon!

"So Lord Nick Herbert, the new envoy, is the Chair of the College of Policing."

According to his own website, yes.

@SpindleWhorl

Ok, so just reminded myself what I wrote over on the thread 'UK's Special Envoy on LGBT+ Rights'.

So Lord Nick Herbert, the new envoy, is the Chair of the College of Policing.

Herbert is also bezzies with the TRA-like Crispin Blunt MP, and sits on the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) which Blunt chairs on 'Global LGBT+ Rights'. (Yeah I know, it's all very colonialist.)

In fact Herbert is one of Blunt's vice-chairs from what I can see in Hansard.

The APPG had its AGM in February this year, and the minutes record, among other gems:

Crispin Blunt MP expressed disappointment in the Government’s failure to reform the Gender Recognition Act 2004 and noted that, while the APPG was set up to focus on international issues, it is the only LGBT+ APPG in the Parliament. He noted that the UK’s Equal Rights Coalition co-chair, Argentina, had introduced a progressive gender recognition law in 2012.

Crispin Blunt MP welcomed the APPG’s former Chair, the Lord Herbert of South Downs, congratulated him on his work with the Global Equality Caucus, and welcomed the Government conference which he will chair.

Lord Herbert shared that the conference has been postponed and discussions about rescheduling it are ongoing, and hoped that the APPG will play a role, along with parliamentarians from around the world. Crispin Blunt MP commented that would be good to be do alongside London Pride in 2022.

Now tie that in with this APPG's dependence on Stonewall for its 'expert evidence' and you have a lobbying scandal brewing ...

... which appears to have crossed over into the police, using carriers like Nick Herbert, Stonewall itself having been 'infected' by Gendered Intelligence under Ruth Hunt (now a Peer herself).

This in itself is a conflict of interest- should not happen>>

Hopefully this will make some of the sensible forces think. Then the ones who refuse to think can be taken to court.

SpindleWhorl · 09/06/2021 09:12

Oh how very interesting. Happy to support this sort of thing from Fair Cop et. al.

The infiltration of our supposedly independent and neutral police constabularies and colleges by a blatant political lobbying organisation has been and is a bloody disgrace.

The roles of MPs and Peers like Crispin Blunt and Nick Herbert need very close examination. I posted about it on another thread and I'll go find it.

Is the BBC still a Stonewall Champion? I've seen stuff online suggesting it is or has been, and its treatment of Jenni Murray, Woman' Hour, the conspicuous lack of coverage about the movement's negative impact on women and children and the various comments I've heard from Radio 5 presenters about steering debate away from trans issues does strongly suggest they've been Stonewalled. For an organisation elsewhere committed to impartiality, this surely can't go on.

Grellbunt · 09/06/2021 09:07

Should check Police Scotland and the officer involved in the current high profile example.

Fair Cop will issue Pre Action letters to any force which remains in the Stonewall Champion’s Scheme following a period of consideration

Hopefully this will focus minds.

This article was in the wind last week. I wondered when it would make an appearance. When the Justice system has been captured we need a public enquiry (yes a separate one) because if it can be captured by Stonewall, it could easily be captured by groups wanting to overturn democracy.
