We’ll give you three guesses as to the highly controversial and extravagantly taxpayer-funded organisation that has its rainbow fingerprints all over this story, readers.
But you’re going to have two to spare.
Because, y’know, duh.
Who else would it have been?
LGBT Youth Scotland is a law unto itself under the current Scottish Government. It can survive a growing history of paedophilia and child abuse scandals, completely blank any questions about its activities no matter how clearly it appears to be in breach of its legal remit, and sneeringly brush off the utterly toothless and unaccountable Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator.
And it can do all that while stuffing its pockets with vast wads of your money.
Despite its extremely troubling track record, LGBTYS is bombarded with so much public money from so many sources that it must be difficult for it to keep track of where it’s all coming from, even after the likes of BBC Children In Need withdrew its funding in response to serious concerns.
But apparently none of that bothers the SNP. Indeed, the amount of taxpayer money going to the group seems to increase the more it advocates causing irreversible harm to children.
Chest binders and puberty blockers are unequivocally harmful treatments. Puberty blockers, which LGBTYS describes as “wonderful”, have effectively been banned on both sides of the border since the publication of the Cass Review, and there was never even any credible dispute that chest binders are intrinsically injurious to the health of young women and girls.
(And obviously so – plainly you shouldn’t go around trying to crush your body parts out of existence, especially when they’re still growing. It’s no more defensible than foot-binding, and would be regarded with horror and outrage in the West if it was happening in far-off and “primitive” cultures.)
So the fact that yet another idiot school in Scotland has been captured by the country’s premier grooming organisation should come as no surprise whatsoever to anyone who’s been paying the slightest attention. The only question is how much further LGBT Youth Scotland will go, and how much harm they’ll be paid to do to Scotland’s children, before someone in authority finally says “no more”.
