Prime Minister Rishi Sunak addresses the 2023 Conservative Party Conference<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The UK prime minister has finally taken a stand on the gender debate, but will his words lead to action?<\/p>\n

During his speech at the Conservative Party Conference (CPC) in Manchester, Mr. Sunak said people cannot change sex, or ‘gender’.<\/p>\n

‘ Patients should know when hospitals are talking about men or women, and we shouldn’t be bullied into believing that people could be any sex they want to be, but they can’t. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. That’s just common sense.’<\/p>\n

He also said it should ‘not be controversial’ for parents to know what their children are being taught in school about relationships.<\/p>\n

These are all very fine words, but where is the proposed legislative action?<\/p>\n

Uphold Christian freedom and repeal ‘woke’ laws \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n

Repeal the Gender Recognition Act 2004<\/h2>\n

The statements made by Mr Sunak during his speech at the CPC are very welcome. However, everything he said will make not a bead of difference without repealing the Gender Recognition Act <\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n

This 2004 Act, brought in under Tony Blair, enables people to change their legally recognised sex by obtaining a Gender Recognition Certificate ( GRC ).<\/p>\n

So if ‘<\/span>A man is a man and is a woman. That’s just common sense,’ where is the commitment to repeal the Gender Recognition Act, which says the precise opposite? Mr. Sunak’s comments were applauded at the CPC and made catchy headlines in the Daily Telegraph<\/strong><\/a>. But they are empty words without action.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bible says,
\nJohn 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.<\/b><\/p>\n

Ask us to come and speak at your church \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n

Repeal equality Act 2010<\/h2>\n
\"The<\/a>
The Equality Act allowed King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust to paint this ‘Progress Pride’ abomination on a walkway at their Princess Royal Hospital, Orpington.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If ‘hospitals are talking about men or women, and we shouldn’t be bullied into believing that people could be any sex they want to be’, what will he do to repeal the\u00a0 Equality Act<\/b><\/a> 2010 which compels public authorities like government departments and NHS trusts to promote ‘gender reassignment’?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The Act provided a legal framework to advance the woke agenda under the guise of “equality” of opportunity. Where is Mr Sunak’s promise to repeal it?<\/p>\n

With this Act in place, the NHS is under an obligation to promote “diversity and inclusion, or to leverage on existing laws for political gain and woke propaganda. We read that civil servants can ‘change gender’ on a daily basis. Where is Mr Sunak’s decision to stop that absurdity?<\/p>\n

Act allows changing gender at school<\/h2>\n

Rishi Sunak\u2019s Government has long been promising to publish guidance for schools on how they should act when pupils want to self-identify as a different gender from the one assigned at birth. Schools are already allowing children to ‘socially transition’, demand teachers and classmates call them by the pronouns of the opposite sex and adopt that clothing. Some schools are going for ‘gender-neutral’ clothing. ‘Social Transition’ sets children on a pathway to puberty-blocking hormones and mutilatory surgery, which a civilised, let alone a constitutionally-Christian, country should not be permitting either.<\/p>\n

But ministers have had to water down the proposals after being warned that a change to the Equality Act would be needed to implement them.<\/p>\n

If Mr Sunak is to be true to his words he should order the complete repeal of the Equality Act 2010. Where is his promise to even cut out the ‘protected characteristics’?<\/p>\n

Mr Sunak’s Education Secretary, Gillian Keegan, believes children should be able to change gender’ at sixteen. If he really believes what he said, why has he not sacked her?<\/p>\n

The LGBT propaganda of Sex-Ed<\/h2>\n
\"Miriam<\/a>
Miriam Cates MP has proposed a bill to let parents see RSE materials.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lastly, if Rishi Sunak believes it should ‘not be controversial’ for parents to know what their children are being taught in school about relationships, what is he doing to give parents that right? .<\/p>\n

A bill introduced by Miriam Cates MP to do that, albeit in a half-hearted way, will not even be debated in parliament this year. And it is a private member’s (back-bencher’s) bill. Where is the Government bill?<\/p>\n

We also reported in August that parents are taking the government to court to outlaw the LGBT propaganda of Relationships and Sex Education. Yet in 2019, only 11 Conservative Party MPs opposed the RSE guidelines in a vote in Parliament. 227 of his MPs voted for it. Rishi Sunak was among them.<\/p>\n

If the Prime Minister is serious, and if his were not empty words, he needs to state the legislative action he is going to take right now.<\/p>\n
