I don't watch Alibi. I'll have to have a look though. Your Dad must be mesmerised.

Wonderful.

The article says there are “250 Whitehall departments and public bodies” who were members. That’s well over a quarter of Stonewalls members. No wonder their “message” has become so pervasive in all walks of life!

This is excellent news! Very encouraging. Smile

Was just coming on to see if anyone had seen the ads - daytime TV on alibi - really don't know who they're aimed at, certainly not my 92 years old Ddad in the middle of watching New Tricks reruns. Hmm Grin

Yes. I emailed the Welsh Government about this. They just sent me a PDF on their rules. They are Stonewall Diversity Champions

“ The Government has pulled out of Stonewall diversity training, The Telegraph can reveal, as an exodus over its transgender advice continues.

The Cabinet Office confirmed that it and the Government Equalities Office have ended membership of the controversial LGBT charity's Diversity Champions scheme.”
