"A recent report from international law firm Dentons confirmed what many women have long known about the trans rights movement and the tactics of its activists. The report praised the success of trans activists in Ireland, and advised activists elsewhere to imitate them by using NGOs to ‘get ahead of the government’. They should also, Dentons advise, avoid press coverage and scrutiny.

The reason for this, as James Kirkup wrote in a Spectator column about the report, is that ‘if the public find out about those changes, they might well object to them’. As a friend who has lived in the USA remarked; there are only two other lobbies that operate like this — tobacco and guns.

These tactics are, however, but one half of a pincer movement. For secrecy to be effective, it must be shadowed by its close protection bodyguard, fear:A recent report from international law firm Dentons confirmed what many women have long known about the trans rights movement and the tactics of its activists.

#GospelToday (Mt 24:42-44)
Therefore, stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come.

Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour of night when the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and not let his house be broken into.

So too, you also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.
