Met Police team up with Peter Tatchell to champion the return of LGBT+ community liaison officers

[PencilsInSpace]

What the hell is wrong with them?

After all the scandals, their reputation in the toilet, how can they think that teaming up with a serial paedophile apologist could possibly help anything?

Heavily ratioed twitter announcement:

I was shocked when I saw this. Did they do no due diligence?

TBF they have a long history of not doing due dilligence.

I don't understand why he is used as a talking head by the media either.

The Met police are absolutely dreadful. Institutionally homophobic, racist, misogynistic. Mark Rowley has admitted this publicly.
This is shocking but entirely predictable.
As for PT. Well the conclusions to be drawn are obvious.

He has been around a long time. I suppose he has a lot of knowledge and experience. Remember PIE and the politicians who supported it?

What's the betting he asked for any partnership fee up front before the announcement!

Or do pedophile apologists work for free?

The police just have to do three things. Stop killing and ignoring women. Stop allowing POC to die in custody. And clear up some crimes.

What they shouldn't do is liase with gender baiters and Stonewall stooges like Tatchell.

I think he can pretty much ask for whatever he wants.

Glad I don't live within their beat

For fuck’s sake, can they not get one simple sodding thing right? How hard is it not to give paedo apologists airtime?

It'll be interesting to see if this thread stands. Others on him - with all the publicly available information (strangely also available to the Met!) - have been deleted.

The time he got Anne Frank's name wrong while appropriating her memory: twitter.com/petertatchell/status/1668346221994336261?s=46&t=WHoOZ_3Kv5G6-FyQuvE0LQ (it was Frank, not Franks as per his tweet)

The time he ridiculed the discussion about self-ID eroding public protection: twitter.com/petertatchell/status/1617484888067772418?s=46&t=WHoOZ_3Kv5G6-FyQuvE0LQ

The time he said the council shouldn't cut vegetation as it would "INCREASE the likelihood that members of the public will see sex acts!" (yes, men could simply not have sex in public places): twitter.com/petertatchell/status/1311962893248847872?s=46&t=WHoOZ_3Kv5G6-FyQuvE0LQ

I was assured by MNHQ after a previous deleted thread that criticising or objecting to comments made by Peter Tatchell was OK, defamation and speculation are not OK.

So here are some more things Peter Tatchell has said, presented without comment:

The chapter Peter Tatchell wrote for a book called 'Betrayal of Youth: Radical Perspectives on Childhood Sexuality, Intergenerational Sex, and the Social Oppression of Children and Young People', edited by Warren Middleton who edited the Paedophile Information Exchange's monthly journal in the late 1970's:

Peter Tatchell has repeatedly said 'I was tricked into writing for that book.'

See here, for example: https://twitter.com/PeterTatchell/status/1455959850807173121

Nevertheless, Peter Tatchell wrote a glowing review of the book, following its publication, in which he defends Middleton and all the contributing authors:

The time Peter Tatchell wrote a lovely obituary for Paedophile Information Exchange founder Ian Dunn:

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/obituary-ian-dunn-1151494.html

That Twitter ratio is great to see that people have finally woken up to see him for who he truly is after years of lionisation, awards, honours and being labeled a “National Treasure”. 🤮

And who can forget the time Peter Tatchell interviewed a 14 year old child, who was in the care system, about his experiences of sex with adult men?

It's still on his website:

http://www.petertatchell.net/lgbt_rights/age_of_consent/im-14-im-gay-i-want-a-boyfriend/

It's not clear why a 14 year old child in care was in Peter Tatchell's friend's kitchen, or who his friend was.

That's quite the response.

There's some comment from Malcolm Clark on it, raising a serious point:

Can't see they've engaged with any of the issues raised with them under their tweet.

The police LGBT+ (+ undefined) has retweeted this part of the chain:

Which has a link to this, talking about how this is a response to Tatchell's campaign and has him and Mark Rowley doing a launch of some kind? At least it's a joint press thing. Also features a PC talking about "gender identity"

How many ways can they get this wrong?!
