Stonewall banks £1.1m of taxpayers’ money
from The Christian Instistute:
Controversial pro-trans lobby group Stonewall received more than £1.1 million from the public purse last year, new figures have revealed.
The think-tank TaxPayers’ Alliance found 14 per cent of Stonewall’s total income of £7,779,924 for 2022-23 came from the taxpayer.
The Foreign & Commonwealth Development Office gave £173,034 to Stonewall – the group’s largest single public benefactor. The Scottish and Welsh Governments both donated at least £100,000 in support of the Stonewall cause.
‘Wasteful’
Callum McGoldrick of the Taxpayers’ Alliance said: “Hard-working Britons haven’t signed up to be a part of controversial campaigns.”
Freedom of Information requests made by The Times show that a number of government-funded bodies subscribed to the group’s discredited Diversity Champions scheme in the same financial year.
