Another Pride founder is a child sex offender

Apparently this is the 8th one in the last three years.

The founder of Belfast Pride, Tina McCombe, had carried out all sorts of criminal activity, including procuring a child to be raped and stabbing a man. It only emerged after he died earlier this month.

Several Pride events wrote a glowing tribute to him - they've all been deleted now.

It is relevant.

If people are going to cherry-pick cases where someone associated with a certain movement has apparently done something bad, others can play at that game too.

'Gender Critical' is just a term in common parlance used to know that there are 2 biological sexes. It is from people who were critical of gender roles being used to determine which sex someone is.

Of the people that know that, many are disgusting perverted rapists, murderers and fetishists of all descriptions. Some will be neo nazis. Some will be on the left and some on the right.

The only way you'd know if the users of MN FWR were to be outraged at this man would be to post a thread and a poll.

However, most FWR Feminists are pretty much outraged at all people who obtain make or share child abuse images. There are so many of them it really is hard to keep up. Each and every one of them can go to hell/prison for life as far as I am concerned.

Pattern recognition.

Wilful disingenuity about it does absolutely nothing to help. It really doesn't. If you actually are or care about LGBT+whatever people, then you need to loudly and clearly separate yourself and homosexuality/transgenderism/whatever from sexual abuse of minors, uncontrolled boundary violation, perversion, depravity and stupid blind denial.

The time for drawing that line was years ago actually, and I say that as an LGB person myself, but there was so much whining and whingeing about 'you mustn't say that because Reasons'. The general public now has repeated, patterned reason to be suspicious and it was NOT the LGB who did this. The TQ movement needs to be loudly and clearly condemning this and separating themselves from it, not shouting at people for having eyes.

The link here is claimed to be Pride..asking for data is basic before making judgements

I don't know why Mumsnet deleted my post - maybe they didn't like the wording. But I posted this screenshot which tells the story anyway, presumably this is OK?

My post got deleted. I’ll try saying it another way. I’m very suspicious of grown men wearing dresses. I’m suspicious that they are doing it for sexual gratification which they receive from the power gained from making society accept them. They know the whole thing is ludicrous all too well which adds to the sexual kick gained from society agreeing with it. Once they get this acceptance from society they can push it to see what else they can get away with. They feel powerful and unstoppable.

To be honest, although men like him are over represented in the abusive, criminal weirdo stakes, men in general are. It’s not uncommon for an organisation that’s run by volunteers and committees to find someone on the team turned out to be criminal. So I’m a bit torn.

A gender critical man who protested drag shows along with other gender critical people was a neo-Nazi who was arrested for CP.

Surely the gender critical community should be outraged at this? (Funny enough, they were completely silent)

There is no “gender critical community”, for Heaven’s sake. There are disparate groups of people who believe that sex is real, immutable and important. Often they disagree with each other on everything else. That’s it.
All sensible, law abiding people abhor crimes such as these outlined.

a) that's got nothing to do with what this thread is about.

b) that wasn't in this country or in the last two or three years.

c) nothing in the article says this man has anything to do with gender critical people.

But apart from that, and quite a few other points, thank you for your brilliant response

He’s ignoring the point about the deliberate dismantling of usual safeguarding protocols. The point is not that someone connected to a belief system did something bad; in any group of people there will always be bad actors but with this particular group society has been gaslit into thinking that any kind of criticism is based on bigotry.

Isn't it time we started asking questions about the BBC?

This is the pride section of the BBC News website. It's pure promotional propaganda!

They really are. It should come with a health warning.

There are annecdotes aplenty about this particular person, who by all accounts back in the day was known to flash schoolchildren. It seems more recently was known to pester people, being very much a creep and overstepping the mark.

youandyourelk · 24/05/2026 12:03

And the linked Facebook post is even more illuminating. The man was a walking crime wave, and maybe I've misspelled 'walking'! www.facebook.com/100004207634009/posts/3550057818477771

What part of this article suggests he was gender critical? Do you even know what gender critical means?

I wonder what it is about Pride in its current form that’s attracting so many abusive exhibitionists?

Pride has become about flaunting transgressions and raw displays of kink and fetish in public. This is the end result of 'queering' society and sexuality.

DialSquare · 24/05/2026 12:41

I believe @PrizedPickledPopcornwas being sarcastic with that post and insinuating that we all know what attracts them.
