The Child Abuse Arrests Have Begun...
Whether Surrey Pride's founder is convicted of child abuse or not, the truth is the LGBTQ+ lobby as a whole refuses to take child safeguarding seriously and is bedevilled by predator apologists.
Stephen Ireland was very careful with his pronouns.
The founder of Pride In Surrey never went anywhere without them. Oh how his social media profiles loved to sport He/Him in case anyone was in any doubt.
Or cared.
On Facebook and Instagram He/Him’s constant refrain was … be you, be proud.
Problem is though there are people we don’t want to be themselves. Or feel proud. Like paedophiles…perhaps. As a totally random example. That’s because when a minority of people let themselves be them, and proud of it, it may mean other, more vulnerable folks, don’t get the chance to become who they might have been. The victims of paedophiles, perhaps. As a totally random example.
40 year old Ireland who urged us all to be ourselves …though interestingly not our better selves ….is currently in custody, after being charged last week on multiple counts of child sex abuse. 37 in fact. Including the rape of a child under 13, six counts of making indecent photographs of kids and two counts of causing a child to engage in sexual activity. “One penetrative”, as the charge list records with barely-suppressed horror.
For 15 of the alleged offences, Ireland is charged jointly with his friend, the Pride In Surrey volunteer David Sutton. I’ll spare you his pronouns. Though not the charges.
Read and weep.
I should say, before I go on, that Ireland and Sutton may well be innocent and indeed must be presumed to be so. Unless or until proven guilty. That said, even if exonerated, and he might well be, Ireland’s story symbolises the deep-seated problems that plague the way the LGBTQ+ lobby operates in this country.
The single biggest issue is that, unlike any other group of people in society, this lobby’s male activists, gay men but also the sexual fetishists who shelter under the trans umbrella, have been accorded almost total immunity from suspicion by the mainstream media and every important institution in our country.
Let’s take a random man at example. Someone, say, like Stephen Ireland, the founder of Pride In Surrey. On what planet could it EVER make sense for a man whose entire identity is defined by sexual activity to visit schools? Never mind with actual cops in tow.
That’s just for starters. On what planet could it EVER make sense for a man whose entire identity is defined by sexual activity to work on a radio station that operates out of another school; one in which school children work alongside adults?
