This is such a twisted phrasing.

Unification comes with accountable & transparent leadership, fully committed to listening to their bases & holding space for marginalised voices.

"Let's get it done & move on" is the polar opposite & positions dissent as maliciously divisive. https://twitter.com/SusannaAbse/status/1284033475939631107
This comment demonstrates so clearly that @BritPsyCouncil @BACP @UKCP_Updates sat down with "stakeholders" first, prioritising their wish for more organisational influence, then turned around to their members (if they bothered) to present them with a we-did-this-for-you done deal
I find it disingenuous to pretend that #SCoPEd is going to improve quality of services, or C&P employability & respectability (what does that even mean).

If that was true, your first "stakeholders" to consult with would be

A) clients & service users
B) counsellors & therapists
All of which makes even less sense when considering that the framework is supposedly only mapping what practitioners in those MBs have in common...

...which is not the same as unifying the profession.

Making a diagram to assert representativeness is not unifying the profession.
Collating a list of minimum training requirements,

lumping them together across modalities/orientations/schools without being transparent with your methodology & literature,

and asserting that it is "evidence-based" when questioned or challenged

is not unifying the profession.
MBs clearly jumped 17 steps on their quest to gain more influence for themselves on public services,

namely, the practitioners & clients that it will affect,

but it's great that #SCoPEd is already printed in textbooks @SAGEPublishers

& on training curriculums & paid CPD events
