No. You're not going to get to rewrite history.

She is a liar. Like everyone else at Stonewall 🤷🏼‍♀️

Liars and frauds,all of them.

Glamourreader · 13/04/2024 12:06

It's a fantastic sign though as it shows how obvious it is that what Stonewall has done is completely indefensible.

HermioneWeasley · 13/04/2024 12:10

The sheer utter cheeky fuckery of this has me raging. Over 9000 children irreversibly damaged, which she was a fucking cheerleader for - stonewall tried to get Allison Bailey sacked from her chambers remember - and now she wants to pretend she was misled by experts?!

she needs to be held in the same contempt as Paula Vennells. She and Nancy Kelly and so many others shouldn’t be able to live comfortably in the Uk - they should be refused service in every shop, pub and restaurant and shunned by decent society.

I doubt they’ll take her peerage away. It being honest and having integrity was an ongoing requirement for the House of Lords there would be a constant revolving door.

No to a golden bridge. Never forget or forgive this:

Crikey, that really is the bloody limit.

Look how the blame game's going to go, they're lining up Polly Carmichael to be the fall-guy (which would be well-deserved):

Hunt said her only regret was trusting the “experts”, such as Dr Polly Carmichael, the former director of the Gender Identity Development Service (Gids). “I think there was a responsibility on the NHS, schools and social services. So it wasn’t in my gift to either make this better or worse,” Hunt said.

And Carmichael will blame the endocrinologists who actually gave the injections of puberty blockers. And the endocrinologists will blame the psychiatrists who said they needed them. And the psychiatrists will blame the therapists who were the children’s case managers, and round and round it will go…

She is entirely without normal, healthy shame.

DameMaud · 13/04/2024 12:34

Right now, I'm remembering when there was all that talk about 'it's not cancelling people, its about accountability'

SerafinasGoose · 13/04/2024 12:35

I came here especially for the reverse ferret GIFs, and wasn't disappointed.

Said reverse ferreting is what women on these boards have been saying would happen since - and probably long before - I first stumbled onto FWR in about 2015. And after that, it will be selective memory loss; the convenient 'forgetting' of the dangerous ideology people like Hunt have championed.

Unfortunately for these people, once it's out there on the internet, it's there forever. Women are not going to forget who threw their rights and those of their children under the bus.

It would be a delicious moment, were it not for a sober reflection on the likely numbers of children harmed by this hideous medical experimentation. IMO, those who are culpable should be facing human rights charges.

They all are, those who crowed about being on the “right side of history”.

They disgust me, and I truly hope, now that the truth is publicly highlighting their involvement and culpability, they each have a moment of enlightenment that destroys their souls and fills every last minute of the rest of their lives with utter, profound horror and regret.

They destroyed bodies, minds, and lives.
They championed this false narrative, they fronted the attack on those desperately seeking to safeguard and save innocent children, and they celebrated the mutilation of bodies, spirits and truth.
They deserve condemnation and then to live with the real truth of what they have done - not their saviour complex version of reality.

OvaHere · 13/04/2024 12:47

Unbelievable.

Unfortunately we will have to stomach a lot of this sort of revisionism in the despite all the receipts.

NotBadConsidering · 13/04/2024 12:58

Just wait for the Owen Jones article “I’ve always been against puberty blockers. Those who disagree are on the wrong side of history.”

Under here, a reminder of their "Trans Advisory Group" from 2015:

Just wait for the Owen Jones article “I’ve always been against puberty blockers. Those who disagree are on the wrong side of history.”

I think it will go like this

”The toxicity of the campaign against trans kids by terfs and bigots and the barriers they placed to accessing the care they need left many with no alternative but to buy puberty blockers online. Had treatment not been cruelly withheld from them, more would have been treated in a holistic way which of course I have always supported and fewer would have been rushed into obtaining off plan drugs by transphobes who deny the very existence of trans people. They should hang their heads in shame at subjecting one of the most vulnerable minorities to the biggest medical scandal of our time.”

CranfordScones · 13/04/2024 13:25

We need a full public enquiry in to the way organisations like Stonewall infiltrated public bodies. Anyone know of a petition so we can get a parliamentary debate on the issue?

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 13/04/2024 13:26

So this is how it's going to play out? Lots of people going "we didn't mean that we meant this / We didn't say that or if we did you misunderstood what we actually meant. / It wasn't me officer!"

Isn't that what was done to JKR and the accusations of transphobia? 'Ah yes, she SAYS that but what she really means is....'

I have a phrase that can be useful here. 'I don't know what you meant. I DO know what you said/did.'

Such a heartbreaking image. How was this ever allowed?

That’s an image that will be in history books in the future, as an illustration of these times and the collective madness that was a culmination of the devastating effects of patriarchy, misogyny, homophobia, big pharma and the dangers of an unregulated internet.

A horror show.

Agree. And it should be in our national and international media now. I don’t think many people realise what “being kind” has meant for some young easily influenced people.

Fukuraptor · 13/04/2024 13:33

Wasn't she in charge when Stonewall redefined being gay as being same gender attracted instead of same sex attracted?

How was that supporting young lesbians?

I think she's right though, the problem is most sensible people who were "be kind" assumed that there were sensible grown ups in charge at GIDS who knew the difference between a "trans child" and a young lesbian who wanted to wear a suit and would kindly tell them they weren't trans.

But there was huge cultural pressure to affirm only. It's clear from "Time to Think" that we were despite the whistle blowers heading towards the American model where by: the endocrinologists and surgeons believe the psychiatrists/psychologists who believe the self diagnosis of the child and/or parent who believes the tiktok/Reddit/Facebook posts that tell them that if they think they might be trans then they are trans.

Feckedupbundle · 13/04/2024 13:33

I'm quite enjoying all these chickens ( or should it be capons?) coming home to roost.
Every single person of influence who cheer leadered children being mutilated and sterilised needs to be held to public account.
