It’s time to stonewall the Stonewall group.

When a group that was set up to fight against the discrimination that LGB people faced in Britain in the latter part of the 20th century loses the support of a very large part of the group of people that set it up, then that group has a massive problem. This is the case with Stonewall the group set up to fight against what they saw as discriminatory laws such as Section 28 of the Local Government Act that prevented schools or other local authority entities from treating or depicting LGB people as normal everyday British subjects.

Now that many of the battles that prevented LGB people from being accepted legally and socially have been won, Stonewall decided to refocus and back the more extreme parts of the Cult of Trans. They pushed self identification and it has been claimed that Stonewall are now ‘bullies’ who promote the Cult of Trans almost entirely and have failed to support the rights of LGB people.

Stonewall has seen many of those who were part of its founding and its early existence come out and denounce the way the group has turned against LGB people and the right of men and women to have defined spaces, in favour of the Cult of Trans. The individuals who guided Stonewall to its successes in helping LGB people achieve legal equality are leaving in disgust at what the organisation has become.

The latest long standing campaigner for LGB rights to leave Stonewall is Simon Callow the actor and one of the early high profile members and supporters of Stonewall. In article published in Spiked magazine, Mr Callow is said to have described Stonewall as ‘taking a turn to the tyrannical’ and I find it difficult to disagree with that position having observed Stonewall going from equality campaigners to promoters of a Gender Identity Cult.

Instead I tend to find myself in agreement with those such as Jonny Best, one of those involved in the more gender ideology critical Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Alliance, who has said in an article in Unherd magazine, that Stonewall have decided to align themselves with gender radicals and have therefore lost the support of the vast number of assimilationist LGB people. In other words the Stonewall group no longer represents the interests of those who founded the group nor it needs to be said, the interests of the majority of LGB people.

Equality has been won. A fight for equality for LGB people that lasted, at least in an organised form, from at least the 19th century, has been achieved. Stonewall played a part in that victory by showing the public that LGB people were not ogres and by dealing intelligently with government ministers and the civil service. Stonewall should have refocused its energies to ensure that there could be no backtracking on equality or even turning its attentions to the plight of LGB people who have the misfortune to live in religious communities that hate them, but they did not. Instead they gave their support to one of the most divisive of the identitarian cults that of transgenderism and by doing so threw Lesbians, Gays and Bisexuals under the proverbial bus. Stonewall showed that they did not care that lesbian women were being confronted with males identifying as women in their social or dating environments nor that a large number, quite possibly the majority of gay men, preferred their sexual and romantic partners to be actual men, not natal women with an ersatz penis.

Stonewall have thrown away much of the goodwill that they gained for their work in gaining equality because of their by now extremely close identification with the extremes of the Trans Cult. I don’t think that this group can recover and the fact that so many of those who were involved in its early days are speaking out against it shows that.

It’s time to do what an increasing number of public and private sector entities are doing and to stonewall the Stonewall group when they come knocking and offering their services.  They are not helping LGB people anymore and have really become part of a big problem that of promoting the more extreme parts of the Cult of Trans.
