Tara Hewitt Head of 'Equality Diversion & Inclusion' at Northern Care Alliance advising NHS leaders to ignore EHRCs recent guidance.

[happydappy2]

Tara Hewitt who holds a senior position within the NHS, is advising CEOs, Chief medical officers and others within the NHS to blatantly ignore new guidance from EHRC regarding single sex provision of services. Claiming it is transphobic. This will not end well...the NHS is there to serve all of us, not just males and their identities. The fact they feel emboldened to do this publicly on twitter is shocking.

@Liveliferun

Robin, Tara and the rest of this anti-women brigade have converted me from the live and let live attitude that I used to have towards transsexuals back in the day, to where I am today. Now I am bloody angry. This latest debacle by people PAID to ensure inclusion in the NHS has further infuriated me. I’ve just joined my local Women’s Rights Network. I’ve raised my head above the parapet at work for the first time (and been supported). I’m educating my children in no uncertain terms that you cannot change sex. You could say I’ve been radicalised but it ain’t Mumsnet what did it, it is these males in plain sight trying to tear down our single sex protections. It was #nodebate for many years and I, like others, was afraid to speak. So much has changed in the last few years and the law is now clearly on our side (it always was but Stonewall obfuscated it). Robin I am nobody, but I am also #everywoman and you can no longer railroad us with your dangerous nonsense. We are all speaking out now and we won’t be silenced. The NHS will be held to account here, all of us women will see to it that it is.

Yes, it's true.

I was wondering why I was never a particular fan of transgenderism in the first place, when I first heard about it.

And I had forgotten.

There were a couple of websites called "what transactivists say" or similar.

With all the quotes taken from social media and put into one website. They were horrific. And un-ignorable.

That one visit dropped the scales from my eyes, immediately.

The second visit ground them under my feet, because the websites had been deleted.

If a blind woman specifically requested a woman doctor and was given a man because she wouldn’t know, that’s clearly ethically wrong. How is this different?

In many situations the sex of your practitioner is irrelevant but in the occasions where it is relevant, it needs to be crystal clear and the patient free from judgement to request what they need.

@Artichokeleaves

Jane Clare Jones describes this as women being required to make themselves into blank mirrors, reflecting others.

There is no immorality in refusing to blank and erase yourself, your needs, your feelings, your humanity and reality, just in order to reflect back to someone what they wish to experience.

Yes, it's that exactly. I imagine women speaking out is the equivalent of the looker gazing on that hypnotic, exciting image in the mirror, and the reflection suddenly frowning, opening her mouth, and asking loud, clear questions.

And the one thing that these men never, ever experience, much less understand, is that solidarity between a woman and other women.

100%

'I am nobody, but I am also #everywoman and you can no longer railroad us with your dangerous nonsense. We are all speaking out now and we won’t be silenced.'

👏👏👏👏

Interestingly this is prominent on sky news website but not bbc website

Regardless of your views on Boris, it’s highlighting it as an issue now and should prompt further discussion and wider support

Oops. Wrong thread

@tabbycatstripy

I think I’ll write to the Health Secretary and Equalities Minister naming these people publicly declaring their intention to ignore guidance from the UK Equality and Human Rights regulator. Anyone want to join me?

I will join you. But I am v busy.

If you write the text of a letter that I can copy-paste and an email or royal mail address I will do it.

LIVERPOOL ECHO, 30th January 2016.

"A transgender woman who converted to Catholicism speaks out about her beliefs and how it doesn’t affect her role in the NHS.

Tara Hewitt, 30, who works in the Wirral as the boroughs’s equality and diversity advisor said she is pro-life but ‘doesn’t force those views on others.’

She said:“I don’t believe in terminating life... Life starts at conception and then if you terminate life after that then you’re ending a life.

...

After transitioning at the University of Liverpool, at the age of 21, Tara struggled and attempted suicide before turning to the church.

She said her attempted overdose does not affect her Catholicism.

Tara ... is also a pansexual, which means she is attracted to any gender.

But, although she supports gay marriage and same-sex adoption, she doesn’t believe in IVF.

“None of my views are based on sexual orientation I support love.

“Millions of people share my view but, because they aren’t trans, they aren’t targetted.

“It’s hard being right wing and trans, I get attacked from both sides.”

Tara was on the Conservative Party candidate list in the last election and came under fire when a Sun report ‘revealed’ her sexual fetishes.

Hewitt reportedly described herself as an “advocate of the BDSM (bondage, discipline and sadomasochism) community”, and into “swinging” and “pet play”, which is dressing up as an animal for sex."

Calls WPUK a "hate group".

Totally unfit person to hold a senior position in the NHS.

We need to take action.

Women protecting the rights of other women (who have been assaulted, raped and excluded in pursuit of this agenda) are a 'hate group'.

Keep going Tara, there's a few at the back who haven't quite clocked yet.

I actually think that we should complain to the CQC as Tara is clearly not a fit and proper person to be a director:CQC’s guidance sets out the procedure for when it receives information that potentially alleges a director is not of good character. While there is no statutory guidance on what constitutes "good character", it names the following features that are "normally associated" with good character that trusts should take into account when assessing an individual under FPPR, in addition to the matters specified in Part 2 of Schedule 4:

honesty

trustworthiness

integrity

openness

ability to comply with the law*

Taken from here:
nhsproviders.org/fit-and-proper-persons-regulations-in-the-nhs/the-fit-and-proper-persons-regulations

Well, T. Hewitt has certainly expressed honesty and openness about their attitude towards abortion, IVF, kink, BDSM, and a zeal for advancing transgenderism. So that is two boxes ticked.

As for integrity & trustworthiness, yet to be seen.

As for ability to comply with the law --- failed!

I remain amazed that Tara managed to rise to her current position given some of the views Tara has been very public about in recent (ish) years.

My understanding is that the foot in the door all started from being very outspoken in student politics/unions etc. Which considering Tara never graduated, is ironic.

TH claims to understand the law because she ‘studied law at university.’

She rarely admits that she didn’t finish her degree. Again, manipulative use of language to suggest something that isn’t true.

She and I have one thing in common. Neither of us has a qualification in law. Unlike her, I don’t try to suggest I do in order to silence women.

Ahh. I dare say Robin has plopped and run again. But I did have this question that I think I have asked on two threads now with no answer.

When a mixed sex toilet provision is made and a clearly signed ‘female single sex toilet’ is available for the females, whether a transitioned male would disrespect the needs of those females by entering into that toilet.?

And if not, what would we be policing if all toilets are configured in such a way, ie. That signage states female only clearly. Surely no ‘policing’ is needed because no males would enter unless they had ill intent

My understanding is that Tara is paid band 8a in the nhs. That’s somewhere between 41-53k ish.

She has no university degree, no clinical qualification.

She is an ED professional. But there’s no such profession. And yet despite that, she paid more than senior physiotherapists, nurses, OTs, Radiographers, speech therapists and clinical psychologists who have PHDs (clinical psychologists often start on the band lower).

I’ve followed her Twitter for years. She has variously claimed to be transgender, pan sexual, lesbian, Tory, Labour, deaf, dyslexic, disabled, adopted, qualified in law, an abuse survivor and an abortion survivor. She says that she passed A levels by teaching herself from books.

There are many commonalities.

(1) you are seldom required to show evidence for any of the above

(2) the descriptions change over time

(3) there is some interesting and manipulative use of language. For example - she claims to be an abortion survivor. For me, this conjures up images of being born after a failed attempt at abortion. This is not the case for Tara. Her biological mother had her adopted. But in her eyes, this makes her an abortion survivor because her mother chose not to have an abortion.

From looking at her Twitter over a number of years, I can only conclude that Tara will not answer a direct question about whether she still has male genitalia.

From what I have read, Tara is good at standing up for people who are exactly like her. Whatever that is at the time. She campaigns or speaks much less about ethnic groups, blindness, amputees, gay men.

Tara once worked in a hospital that I happened to visit. The trust had been persuaded by her to spend some considerable money on some glossy equality/diversity posters and stands.

The poster consisted of a ‘wheel’ of words all describing difference. Like lesbian, gay, blind, deaf. Basically words that describe how a person may identify. I noticed that some words were in huge letters, pulled out from the wheel to highlight them. I had a little chuckle because I was following her Twitter at the time, and I noticed immediately that all of the ‘highlighted’ words were the words she used to describe herself. It all seemed such a vanity project.

I totally understand why the NHS is in such a mess. Nobody stands back and calls this pattern of behaviour out.

The number of NHS senior leaders that instantly agreed with Tara about ignoring the EHRC advice frightening- Lotwbhqve subsequently protected their Twitter accounts but luckily lots were archived first

*Lots have subsequently

I suspect if you added together all the salaries of the thousands ? of Equality / Diversity posts across the NHS it would be possible to fund a small hospital? This is why the NHS, which is supposed to be science / facts / evidence based has been so easily captured by a dangerous ideology that is doing so much harm to the young and vulnerable. With the NHS at the forefront of providing substandard, experimental healthcare (according to the Cass Review) to vulnerable children.
