1./ Who knew the BBC now needs defending from a regulator that admits to working hand in glove with a controversial lobby group which famously enforces its own narrow, biased agenda on some of the big issues of the day. Yes @stonewalluk
2./ Stonewall is wrong on single sex spaces, its advice on Self ID has been rejected by the UK govt, its policy on puberty blockers was rejected by the High Court. Sporting bodies reject its attitude to women’s sports. It conspires against the rights of gay people.
3./ And yet secretly it is working with @Ofcom day to day to help them decide who gets to debate these issues and many more. This is a disgrace. Forget defund the BBC. It’s Ofcom that needs wholesale reform. 👇👇
4./ A regulator that takes advice from an organisation that consistently misinterprets the law (such as the Equality Act) isn’t fit to regulate itself never mind broadcasters.
