B6: LGB Alliance is a hate group
Summary
The motion asks that the Young Greens consider the LGB Alliance to be a Hate group and to actively campaign against them
Motion Text
Notes:
LGB Alliance are an anti-trans group and have a number of questionable
beliefs when it comes to the wider LGBTIQA+ community
LGB Alliance beliefs include
That LGB rights are “under threat from new ideologies conflating
biological sex with the notion of gender identity and replacing ‘sex’ with
‘gender’, thereby erasing same-sex sexual orientation”[1]
Children with gender dysphoria should be given CBT in order to love the
skin they are in and that “Conversion therapy laws are Trojan Horses,
ostensibly about banning attempts to change sexual orientation in adults,
actually about banning therapy to help gender-dysphoric children and youth
become comfortable with their anatomic sex.” [2]
That non-binary identities do not exist[3]
Pro trans organisations should be criminally prosecuted[4]
Eddie Izzard had let people down by coming out as Trans[5]
Founder Allison Bailey has stated that trans people should not have access
to “single-sex spaces” and children must be protected from “adult
adgendas”[6]
Gender Identity theories have given birth to a cult[7]
Founder Malcom Clark has stated that LGBT clubs in school encourage
predatory teachers[8]
It’s not homophobic to be against gay marriage[9]
The modern LGBTIQA+ movement is homophobic[10]
Police wearing a rainbow lanyard express a political view and undermines
impartiality of the police[11]
Historical LGBT+ movements never ask for society to change its laws,
activities or language[12]
Bisexual people going to gay bars with a opposite-sex partner is offensive
and disrespectful[13]
They are against banning conversion therapy 14]
LGB Alliance often associate with anti-LGBTIQA+ groups and media outlets
or echo their talking points including:
The Times[18]
Morning Star News[19]
Spiked[20]
Cisgender is a slur (An idea spearheaded by transphobes and members of the
right wing)[21]
Christian Concern[26]
In Spite of the evidence LGB Alliance was granted charitable status[27]
LGB Alliance has been allowed present “evidence” to government committees
during inquests about the GRA over Trans Rights groups[28]
Believes:
LGB Alliance is a Transphobic, Homophobic and Biphobic hate group
LGB Alliance does not represent the LGB community and is actively damaging
the community
We must distance ourselves and actively push back against LGB Alliance
LGB Alliance should not have been granted charitable status and it must be
reversed
Granting LGB Alliance charitable status sets a dangerous precedent which
could lead to more violent hate groups gaining charitable status
LGB Alliance being able to give evidence at Government Inquires about the
GRA is deeply disturbing and must not be allowed
This motion will bring us in line with LGBT+ Liberal Democrats, Pride in
London and Pride in Surrey
Resolves:
To declare LGB Alliance a Hate Group
Association, support and/or uncritical platforming of the LGB Alliance
would be considered in opposition to Young Green values and the individual
will be held accountable in accordance with disciplinary guidelines
