How did an NHS created by a moderate Labour government disappear down the rabbit hole of trans extremism and obsession?
by Leo McKinstry, Daily Mail:
Many of Britain’s most important public institutions seem gripped by a kind of madness.
Through a mix of moral cowardice and ideological virtue-signalling, swathes of management have succumbed to a radical Left-wing agenda.
Nowhere is this more true than in the NHS, which is sliding ever deeper into chaos amid record-breaking waiting lists and dire industrial relations.
All the energies of NHS chiefs should be focused on these problems: the sole purpose of this vast organisation is to meet the health needs of the British public.
Instead, many senior NHS figures seem more preoccupied with making the service an instrument of social engineering.
Only yesterday, this paper revealed how new documents from health trusts show the full extent of the doctrinaire outlook that is sweeping through the NHS’s bureaucratic ranks.
As this material showed, in the quest for cultural change, history is being trashed and science denied.
One piece of guidance from hospital trusts in Sussex and Sheffield sounded more like the utterance of a Marxist agitator than the product of a publicly funded group of executives.
‘Globally, many cultures recognise more than two genders,’ it claimed — though tellingly there was little elaboration on this claim.
‘As with sexuality, in the West, binary categories dominate (male/female; gay/straight). In modern-era Western history, these have been imposed on a human experience, which is not binary, through colonial incursion.’
So, it turns out — surprise! — that nasty old British imperialism is to blame.
What does any of this have to do with healthcare?
