Stonewall should have its charitable status rescinded until there has been wholesale purge of the extremists within it.

The comment about free speech is interesting. They could have just used the value for money issue as a reason for leaving but have chosen to go further.

Not just concerns, but concerns across government.

And it's about time. Now they - and all the taxpayer funded services - need to depoliticise their staff and align their policies with the law.

isn't that civil service speak for "fuck off you bunch of cunts, and stay fucked off?"

Fantastic news

I like the free speech part too

Great.

Excellent news. This is now something you can add to the letters to HTs and governors when teachers either teach contested ideas as fact, try to suppress your child’s free speech or try to discriminate against them on the basis of sex.
