Parents Could Be Charged With Domestic Abuse for Not Using Their Child’s Preferred Pronoun

A fresh dispute has emerged concerning new Crown Prosecution Service guidelines, which could result in parents facing domestic abuse charges for not using their child’s preferred pronouns. The Mail on Sunday has the story.

The CPS faced claims it was “losing the plot” over guidance that could also mean someone who refuses to fund their partner’s transitioning process could be committing a serious offence.

However, the Mail on Sunday was told the CPS was now reviewing its controversial ‘Impacts of Domestic Abuse’ advice.

Earlier this year, feminist campaigner Maya Forstater branded the prosecution service “ideologically captured”. And in a scathing report, the Policy Exchange think-tank called on the CPS to replace the guidelines with something that follows British law instead of “Stonewall law”, a reference to the controversial ‘diversity’ charity.

In a report backed by ex-Justice Secretary Sir Robert Buckland and two former senior judges, Policy Exchange said the law placed no obligations on spouses and partners to support a partner’s transgender identity – but that the CPS legal guidance on domestic abuse appeared to suggest otherwise. …

Former Lord Justice of Appeal, Sir Patrick Elias, said: “The paper raises very serious concerns about the impartiality and independence of the CPS when dealing with the highly sensitive issue of the treatment of transgender persons. It appears to have adopted uncritically the controversial views of Stonewall.”

Next men will be prosecuted or labelled bigots for not wanting to get vertical with these trannies. The madness is headed in that direction.

Indeed. To the vicious totalitarian goons now running the show, the personal is political and there is no room for privacy, preference or taste. Unless they are checked, their end goal – of complete coercion – will come about. How often has humanity been in this position before – the twilight zone in which danger looms and the innocent take false comfort from the dying light, abjectly denying that night will fall? Well, the sun is now below the horizon. The assault has started on the most intimate areas of personal liberty and it begins with attacks on the family; on the natural rights of parents to rule and treat their children according to their own moral and religious beliefs and from their own detailed and intimate knowledge of their offspring. It is precisely because such beliefs vary that mixing societies up, through mass immigration and multiculturalism, leads to moral anarchy and personal despair. It is in that moral anarchy that abuses in the home rise and give the left its further excuse for yet more control, more damage – for even if the home is fetid, the public dormitory is always worse. It was always in orphanages, borstals, remand… Read more »

Government see our children as theirs to indoctrinate. But we have been raising kids for millions of years and we don’t need the government in our cave.

I’m getting a strong whiff of ‘a political activist who is ‘special advisor’ to CPS on all matters gender dysphoric.’. Maybe even a ‘she’ who used to be a ‘he’. Thats normally how it works, isn’t it..?

Then we all stand open mouthed at why we continue down a pathway devoid of any sense or nuance. Answer is that everything has to be run past Fifi, formerly Alan, for their approval..

We should be crystal clear about what the state is doing – it is persecuting parents for parenting. We should be crystal clear about why they are doing this – the state wants to own your children. They want to have the monopoly on how your child thinks and behaves, and parents are an obstacle to that goal. This is communist strategy at its most malevolent. The Machine has to be destroyed.

The genius of Kit Knightly at Off-G taking apart the Hallett pantomime:

“The “real Covid scandal” is that the fake pandemic was orchestrated from the highest level in order to seize political power to an unprecedented extent.

Dominic Cummings is the smallest fraction of one percent of that story. He’s not the reason the UK had a lockdown. Just as he isn’t the reason France had a lockdown, or Germany, or Canada, or Russia, or China, or Brazil, or Australia, or New Zealand, or Italy, or Mexico, or Japan or…

…you get the idea.

“Lockdown” was not a mistake. It was a deliberate act of societal sabotage carried out on a global scale.

What the “Covid Inquiry” would have you believe is that an international wave of lockdowns was some kind of happenstance. An avalanche of coincidences. Dozens of ethnically diverse little Dominic Cummings clones, all making the exact same mistakes for the exact same reasons at the exact same time in almost every nation of the world.”

Back in April 2020, posting as Ossettian before I got sick of being called Russian by ignorant and semi-literate Southerners, I posted:

“Lockdown is not a response to a virus, the virus is the excuse for lockdown”

A few months later they started censoring my comments, so I stopped subscribing after more than 30 years. They recently offered a Spectator cap if I re-subscribed.

”girls will be boys and boys will be girls
its a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world
except for Lola
Lo, Lo.Lo.Lo, Lola”

And so now the terms boy and girl are just about what you wear and how you feel; can anyone tell me the proper words to describe;

A) A young homo sapiens person who has the biological features needed to grow up and Father Children?

B A young homo sapiens person who has the biological features needed to grow up and produce eggs, grow a child in their womb, give birth and suckle young, i.e to be the mother to a child?

For most of my 3 score years and ten the terms boys and girls were used as the descriptors for these essential biological differences. If we can no longer use the words boys and girls for this key human differentiation? can anyone tell me what words I should use?

We all need to say this ———–“I have an education and I own a dictionary and I will choose my own words”——-Once you let government choose your words for you then you are letting them also choose your thoughts. —–And that is the whole idea in the first place.

Take a look at Nadine Dorries exposenin the Mail today of massive sexual corruption within the Conservative Party to understand how this perversion has come to be.
Prostitution, grooming, blackmail all managed out of the Whip’s Office.
It explains so much, including the turmoil, vax policy, state enforced wokism.
Labour is no better by all accounts.

Just remember at the General Election, all this flowered during a period of Conservative branded government.

It appears to have adopted uncritically the controversial views of Stonewall.”

Rather like the State “Education” service then. And the National Harms Service.

And not so very different to the MET Police adopting uncritically the controversial views of extremist Muslims that “Jihad can have a lot of different meanings” (and they’ll use the one they want, in the context they want, just when it suits them).

They all seem to have a Common Purpose.

What makes people who self identify think the rest of us cannot identify things. If an elephant identifies as a giraffe why is it not ok for me to identify it as still being an elephant? ————–Precedent is very important. Once you start to implement this stuff you will have all kinds of unintended consequences and clutter down the road.

The CPS is another one of our corrupted institutions that abuses our personal rights and freedom.
This Government and Parliament is without doubt the most foul and treasonous that we have ever had.
