Parents risk prosecution for trying to stop their children having gender treatment under a new Labour law, MPs and campaigners fear. The conversion therapy ban means those convicted of trying to change someone's sexual orientation or gender identity could be jailed for five years.
But won’t somehow also apply to the psychiatrists and doctors pushing trangenderism? That's some sloppily written law, then.
It has prompted concerns that the law will criminalise parents for trying to talk to children about their desire to identify as the opposite sex or undergo gender treatment, such as taking puberty blockers and having surgery. Counsellors and priests could also fall foul of the legislation, it is feared.
Working as intended, I suspect. But even the nutter’s support groups are raising concerns:
The Bayswater Support Group, for parents of trans or non-binary children, said: 'Accusations of psychological or emotional abuse are rife when it comes to transgender identity. '
If this bill becomes effective, parents will fear accusations could escalate into a threat of criminal offence.'
everyhing this wretched government touches it somehow makes worse. That’s quite a talent!
