THREAD: A lot of my recent tweets about GenderGP have comments from people that think the Webberleys have moved their clinic to Spain. The truth is, unsurprisingly, a little more complex than that. Let me try and explain how the business works. 1/
The core business registration is based in Belize, in a trust that is safe from prying eyes. The Webberleys have yet to explicitly state they have sold the business, and no other owner has ever come forward. So I find the claim they are no longer the owners implausible. 2/
The claim that the clinic has been moved to Spain is false. Helen may have a business consultancy registered in Spain, but that registration is meaningless. That’s because there is no physical clinic anymore - it exists entirely on the internet. 3/
Everyone in GenderGP works remotely. Wherever the Webberleys or their staff open their laptop, that is where is the business is operating from. The pandemic and the recent Keira Bell review have accordingly been a boom for business, as their “clinic” is accessible 24/7 online. 4/
This raises profound questions for the regulators such as @CareQualityComm, who rely on a physical clinic to carry out their inspection. How can they do this without files to inspect or staff to interview? The fact is, they need to raise their game. 5/
The fact is, the Webberleys never really left the UK. They may occasionally work from their holiday home in Spain, or even while on holiday in Barbados, as they were recently. But by and large they remain in the hills of Wales, among their family and friends. 6/
If the @CareQualityComm and @HIW_Wales are serious about closing an unlicensed peddler of puberty blockers and cross sex hormones, they are going to have to visit GenderGP’S staff at home. It takes moments on Google to find out this information; why aren’t they doing it? 7/
