Jolyon Maugham, GLP and scary stuff re parental consent

I know that there is another thread on JM but thought I would start a new one as this has just been released. First of all he has named the people on his advisory committee. They include Alex Sharpe, whom we know all about and about whom no more needs to be said.
Second, they are trying to force a change of policy from the Tavistock that they give PBs simply on parental consent to children who cannot consent to them. That is chilling and dangerous and puts an awful lot of power in the hands of adults with nobody to protect the child’s interests. JM has lost the plot.

Goodness, you cannot use the word cult to describe any human organisation on Mumsnet.

I was giving a strike for doing that very thing. It is unkind, apparently. Irrespective of the aims or activities of the organisation, or repercussions for individuals.

Did someone call the Moonies or Scientology cults? You need to ask for the term to be deleted. It is unkind according to the this Forum. What is good the the goose has to be good for the gander. Otherwise it would just be obvious selective cosseting and cover for some movements which people think are very iffy indeed. While others are not being covered for.

You can’t use the word that also means cleaning and brushing horses either.

Ha, I wouldn't dream of saying See you last Tuesday, mole!
