We couldn't draft your letter just now.
I think someone already broke it. Damn. I was looking forward to seeing what it barfed out.
Best I've got so far is:
Take a lesbian who says at a social group that she is attracted only to women, not to anyone who identifies as one. Someone there could complain that her words were meant to change how a person sees their own identity. She would then have to explain to investigators that she was only being honest about herself. I don't think she should face that at all.
Dear Members of the Committee,
- I am an elderly lady.
It's the same for a counsellor. If she explores whether the distress comes from depression or something else, is that care or is it a crime? She can't know until a complaint is made, maybe years later. I worry she'll simply refuse to see such young people at all.
The first moment of trouble under this Bill would be a conversation, and that is wrong. I think of a youth worker who notices that several girls in one friendship group have all started saying they are boys at the same time. That pattern would worry any sensible adult. Under this Bill, the moment she raises it with them, she could be in trouble.
Not great. I'm sure you can do better.
I just got a wall of blather that I couldn't be bothered to read. It seemed to ignore what I wrote.
Ah, it's the Free Speech Union. Set up by that spherical slap head Toby Young, and not particularly concerned with the free speech of anyone who doesn't agree with Toby Young.
On Toby Young:
In 2015, Young wrote an article for the Australian magazine Quadrant entitled "The fall of meritocracy". Under a section titled "Progressive eugenics"[64] he discussed developments in genetically engineered intelligence, and proposed that should the technology for selecting embryos for high intelligence become practicable, it could be provided "free of charge to parents on low incomes with below-average IQs." "This is a kind of eugenics that should appeal to liberals — progressive eugenics."
On Covid19:
Young wrote: "spending £350 billion to prolong the lives of a few hundred thousand mostly elderly people is an irresponsible use of taxpayer's money."
In June 2020, he wrote that "the virus has all but disappeared"
in July 2020 London had almost achieved herd immunity.
So apparently now he gets an unelected permanent seat at the house of lords, great.
[In 2024] Young was nominated for a life peerage by Kemi Badenoch
[he] was introduced to the House of Lords on 28 January that year.
One tweet by Young was in response to a BBC Comic Relief appeal in 2009 for starving Kenyan children.[107] During the broadcast, a Twitter user commented that she had "gone through about 5 boxes of kleenex" whilst watching. Toby Young replied: "Me too, I havn't wanked so much in ages".
Seems like a lovely chap
