Stonewall drop Mermaids?

[ScrimpshawTheSecond]

Seems Stonewall used to direct young people to Mermaids. But the link has been removed from the page?:

www.stonewall.org.uk/help-advice/coming-out/coming-out-young-person

And the page that used to be on there appears to be blank:

www.stonewall.org.uk/organisations/mermaids

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, y'all.

I guess the bat signal went out last bight.

Am I missing something, I see ScrimpshawTheSecond Wed 12-Aug says "Seems Stonewall used to direct young people to Mermaids. But the link has been removed from the page?:" Er well, not when I looked just now at www.stonewall.org.uk/help-advice/coming-out/coming-out-young-persons

@Helmetbymidnight

jolyon is there affirming his support for mermaids over many years.

LOL - I trust the 1 remaining woman on Twitter he hasn't blocked has a screen shot.

They tweeted this AM that they had just added that

Can I just point out that we don't really want Stonewall to distance itself from Mermaids? We don't want them to try to to scapegoat Mermaids for the entire transitioning-of-minors shitshow.

Stonewall have been every bit as involved as Mermaids, and they are more culpable. Their mission was supposed to be to help LBG people when, in fact, they have been enthusiastically pushing the ultimate in homophobia: telling gay kids that they are born in the wrong body and need drugs or surgery to fix themselves. I want to see them own what they have done, not try to slide out the Fire Exit now, before the full scandal hits.

Agree, MrsNoah. But here they are re-affirming their support. So it's all good.

oh yes.

Nice work, Agent Helmetbymidnight

It's better than I could have hoped - JM admitting to both advising and funding Mermaids. I believe that's what his criminal law colleagues call having coughed

Let's see the sanctimonious twat get out of that one when Mermaids hits the buffers.

What’s his dog on this race? I assume he has one.

Amazing.

For a QC, he seems awfully dim.

I have met some spectacularly dim ‘smart’ people. And some very gullible ones.

@SerenityNowwwww

Obviously I'm blocked, but I think he's hinted about having a trans relative in the past.

And no women relatives then?

@SerenityNowwwww

Not any that matter, presumably.

@Kantastic

I am so confused. Given everything we know about Mermaids already I genuinely can't imagine what would cause their supporters to disown them.

Regarding their staff, we already know about

• Sixteenth birthday penis operation
• Susie Green laughing about how puberty blockers caused complications in that operation.
• Thailand changing its laws apparently because of what Susie Green did
• Susie Green claiming that there should be no psychological assessments in place for kids to transition.
• A "cis woman" who works for Mermaids taking a transwoman to court for transphobia.

On an operational level we know that:

• Kids who get involved with Mermaids are more likely to receive trans treatments
• Tavistock staff have complained about Mermaids influencing children's decisions
• the number of kids being treated in trans clinics has increased 5000% over the last few years, there are suddenly far more than girls seeking trans treatments and no one has any explanation for this increase and the altered sex ratio, other than social contagion. Mermaids try to silence everyone who wants to discuss this and influences these children to get dangerous untested medical treatments.
• many of the children Mermaids influences are same-sex attracted or on the autistic spectrum.
• thirty staff have resigned from the Tavistock over the past few years and many of them have spoken up to raise concerns about how it is operating, some naming Mermaids as part of the problem.
• there was a massive data breach last year exposing private and personal information about the children Mermaids are working with.

On the medical level we know that:

• the protocol of blockers + x-sex hormones is a massive untested medical experiment on children and Mermaids advocates for this relentlessly
• there is considerable evidence that puberty blockers damage bones and causes osteoporosis
• there is considerable evidence that puberty blockers damages IQ
• the puberty blockers + x-sex hormone treatment causes infertility
• some evidence suggests the protocol causes considerable impairment in sexual functioning
• all the best evidence suggests that without this protocol most of the children being "treated" would desist and therefore not have to deal with iatrogenic bone damage, IQ damage, or infertility, or the additional risks associated with x-sex hormones
• many of the girls who were early adopters of this fad are already desisting, after considerable damage to their health and wellbeing.
• Bottom line: sure seems like thousands of gay and autistic children are being needlessly sterilised thanks to Mermaids.

Okay so now I've listed all this out, what on earth could make their supporters decide they've gone too far?

A comprehensive summary!

Also recalling their association with Webberleys and RT A.Challenor's blog after Challenor senior's rape and torture of a child charges emerged. I still have the RT.

Stonewall have been every bit as involved as Mermaids, and they are more culpable. Their mission was supposed to be to help LBG people when, in fact, they have been enthusiastically pushing the ultimate in homophobia: telling gay kids that they are born in the wrong body and need drugs or surgery to fix themselves. I want to see them own what they have done, not try to slide out the Fire Exit now, before the full scandal hits.

I've been trying to look it up. There is nothing on Stonewall's website that explicitly shares that gay kids are born in the wrong body (there appears to be a lot of LGB affirmative stuff too) and no pink brains stuff that other people tweet about them.

Is there a direct source?

On 28 Dec 2018, just a few months after David Challenor's crimes were made public, Mermaids tweets an old Huff Post article supporting Mermaids by Aimee Challenor (Trans community comes together to say we #standwithmermaids).

David Challenor repeatedly raped and tortured a young girl in the attic of the two up two down he shared with the then Green Party's A.Challenor. He was also Aimee Challenor's agent at the time. Why on earth would Mermaids, a children's charity, actively promote anything relating to any of the Challenors who were either in prison or under investigation at that time and at the centre of David's horrendous crimes relating to paedophilia, child rape and abuse?

Confused here as to what people think is happening.

Mermaids are still on the Stonewall site, still on NHS sites, and still seemingly everywhere else???

I for one would assist in supporting past the free trial and indeed supporting other costs as a group to archive the madness.

I would donate too. Excellent work going on here, Needa and others.

I just clicked that link and got a page not found.

Well... I suppose they could in part just be overhauling their website and making a hash of it.

The link is still on this page, maybe that's the one you meant?

www.stonewall.org.uk/about-us/news/lgbt-inclusive-organisations-you-should-know-about

And in this page....

www.stonewall.org.uk/help-advice/coming-out/coming-out-young-person

Maybe the speculation is premature and the OP just got a buggered up link?
