ing-left: 40px”>3/ From where I'm sitting, it's not a "culture war" to have a society that openly denigrates homosexuals like when the former CEO of Stonewall called lesbians "sexual racists" or one where gay men are called "genital fetishists". It's just abusive.
4/ I add that people who stand up to Gay Conversion 2.0 at gender abattoirs, people who show the sort of guts sadly lacking in the Labour leadership such as Kemi Badenoch are not mere "culture warriors", they are taking gay rights concerns seriously.
5/ Puberty is a human right and it is a gay right. The Cass review is not a "culture war", it is a damning indictment of a society that drifted into medically correcting gays and sterilising the autistic because it was too scared to say no.
6/ It is not a "culture war" to give boys who will probably grow up to be gay men experimental drugs which are being linked to increased testicular cancer risk. It is not a culture war to want young girls to grow up not having mastectomies.
7/ It is not a "culture war" to object to this massive great hulking rapist [Isla Bryson] being placed in the female prison estate. It is basic bloody sanity. Women and sane people are not objecting to this out of enthusiasm for debate, we are objecting because this is mad.
8/ The Labour leadership's utterances show no appreciation of the fact that we are dealing with a conflict of rights/penetration of a malign ideological into the centres of power. The approach seems to be "ignore it and it will go away". Well. Do I have news for you.
9/ Trans activism simply does not go away. It is well funded, well connected, seriously influential and ensconced across multiple institutions public and private with supporters in blue chips and unions alike. It is not noted for its lack of ambition or extremity in demands.
10/ Equally, those of us who think chemically castrating gay boys or surgically correcting lesbians are not going anywhere either. These are not "Tory culture wars". The Tories, for their faults, ordered the Cass review and appreciate the law re biological sex.
11/ This "culture war", which in reality is a serious and sustained assault on women and homosexuals, came from the third sector from bodies more aligned with Labour values. So don't tell me this is something the right dreamed up, it didn't. Yes it should have done more.
12/ But there's a reason the ugly new chevron on the ghastly corrupted rainbow flag comes from the left. So don't think you can duck this one Sir Keir. Don't think either side on this is going to stop.
These issues are too important to written off breezily as some "culture war"
