Part of the report states that male criminals with a history of violence against women could be housed in a female prison if there was \u201ccompelling\u201d evidence they did not pose \u201can unacceptable risk of harm\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>But the detailed guidance on its operation stated that even those deemed too dangerous to be housed in women\u2019s prison could still be allowed to mingle with female inmates in other settings. This is a recipe for disaster.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There may be other ways of supporting their gender identity, for example through access to work parties, activities, or even programmes with others of their gender identity,&#8217; the report added.<\/p>\n<p>The Bible says,<br \/>\n<b>Proverbs 12:23 A prudent man concealeth knowledge, but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2>Repeal the Gender Recognition Act 2004<\/h2>\n<p>As leaders strive to put this country together, it is crucial to pay attention to issues that could put citizens in danger. It is also crucial to acknowledge the significant role played by the Gender Recognition Act <a title=\"Opens in a new tab or window\" href=\"https:\/\/www.legislation.gov.uk\/ukpga\/2004\/7\/contents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>(GRA)<\/b><\/a> 2004 in exacerbating problems and contributing to avoidable crimes.<\/p>\n<p>The recently proposed SPS protocol, set to be implemented on February 26, 2024, again states that male (trans) offenders would \u201cnot be eligible to be considered for admission or transfer to a women\u2019s prison\u201d if they had been convicted, or were awaiting trial or sentencing for a series of crimes such as murder and rape.<\/p>\n<p>The term &#8220;trans&#8221; itself raises concerns, whether applied to individuals with a criminal history or law-abiding citizens. Consequently, Christian Voice remains steadfast in its advocacy for the repeal of the Gender Recognition Act 2004, the exclusion of &#8216;gender reassignment&#8217; from the Equality Act 2010, and the establishment of legislation prohibiting puberty-blockers and &#8216;gender-affirming&#8217; mutilation.<\/p>\n<h2>SPS reponds<\/h2>\n<p>A spokesperson for Scottish Prison Service, said: &#8216;Our new policy supports the health, safety, and wellbeing of all people living and working in Scotland\u2019s prisons, by taking an individualised approach to the admission, placement, and management of transgender people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We will carefully consider a range of factors, including offending history, with a particular focus on violence against women and girls, when assessing risk.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The Bible says,<br \/>\n<b>Isaiah 10:10 Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed<\/b><\/p>\n<h2>Protection for female inmates watered down<\/h2>\n<p>The new SPS report shows that the rights and protection of female inmates is no longer prioritised.<br \/>\nWomen&#8217;s rights campaigners and members of the Conservative Party have warned that the newly implemented policy, which was introduced in the aftermath of the Adam Graham scandal (now Isla Bryson), drastically waters down protections for female inmates.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Graham was convicted of raping two women before claiming to be a \u201cwoman\u201d. Meanwhile, in September, a paedophile claimed to be a woman before appearing before a Court over the possession of indecent photos of children.<\/p>\n<p>Dominic Mark Carter, now \u2018Sophie Louise\u2019 Carter, attended Southampton Crown Court dressed in a pink shirt, pink shorts and pink nail polish, posing as a woman.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, the approach will continue until the new policy officially comes into force on 26 February 2024.<\/p>\n<h2>Read our related articles here:<\/h2>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/paedophile-changes-gender-before-court-case\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paedophile changes gender before court case\u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/nhs-staff-urged-invited-a-three-day-pronouns-and-gender-conference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NHS staff invited to a three-day pronouns and gender conference\u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/nhs-to-fast-track-surgery-for-trans-patients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NHS to Fast-track Surgery for \u2018Trans\u2019 Patients\u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/?s=keira+bell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mutilation ruins girl\u2019s life<br \/>\n\u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Read and pray<\/h2>\n<p><strong>READ<\/strong>: READ: Isa 1:10 52:7, 61:1; Jonah 3:2; Ezekiel 16:49; 1 Kings 14:24; Matt 4:17, 10:7; Mark 6:12, 16:15; Luke 4:18-19, 9:2, 9:60; Acts 5:28-29.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRAY<\/strong>: for the repeal of woke laws in the UK.<br \/>\nPray for the wisdom of God upon our leaders.<br \/>\nPray for female inmates<\/p>\n<h2>Support us!<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>We appreciate your support; it enables our research and helps us inform your prayers.<br \/>\nSo click below to support Christian Voice and stand up for the King of kings<\/b><br \/>\n<a title=\"Opens in a new tab or window\" href=\"http:\/\/wp.me\/P1OVTZ-gb\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3940\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Scottish Prison Service (SPS) has proposed that men who identify as &#8220;transgender&#8221; serve sentences in female prisons, even if they have a history of violence against women.
