I don't understand why the BBC keeps putting out propaganda that conflicts with UK laws and child safeguarding, and when people complain just dismiss them and face no repercussions for the lies, and carry on? How can they do this? (This is not a query about ideological capture, it's about why it hasn't been addressed and the BBC staff removed for such ideological propaganda/ bias?) Who should be acting on this?

(Fo contaxt I am thinking of CBBC programmes like 'when mum becomes dad' from 25th March which conflicts with laws like thishttps://childrenoftransitioners.org/2023/04/10/paperwork/ the chestfeeding 'news ' ignoring the sexual absue and medical experimentation on babies aspect but there are loads of other examples).

Of course the BBC has to follow the law. But I don't see how this isn't - it may not be impartial, but it doesn't look illegal. The law preventing people changing their child's birth certificate doesn't affect how anybody refers to themselves or others - it only affects what is written on the official record of birth.

What I am trying to understand (sorry if not clear) is why the BBC is not being required to give opposing views or challenged by it's regulators (who are they?) on issues where BBC activist staff are trying trying to push an ideological point of view or when something is actively harmful to children.

What you're talking about is the BBC being in breach of its Charter:

Note the title of the Charter: Royal Charter for the continuance of the British
Broadcasting Corporation. This hints to a broader way in which this could be tackled, by the government applying political and financial pressure on the BBC to comply with its Charter. However, that would be unlikely to happen and is even more unlikely if we get a Labour government.
