LGBT Youth Scotland & Predatory Teachers
Perhaps we need to recognise that the human story consistently fails children
In recent weeks the notorious LGBT Youth Scotland has been in the spotlight for ‘inconsistencies’ again.
This time it is being investigated by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR), Scotland’s charity watchdog - who say it has identified “regulatory issues” after examining “concerns about the charity” raised over the past 12 months. One wonders if three paedophiles later, and concerns that their programs are radicalising children to think themselves ‘trans’, not to mention the BBC Children in Need Charity pulling funding due to safeguarding concerns that perhaps- maybe- finally- in some way- Scottish Government might think their continued funding is unwise? Perhaps? Hopefully? (keeping in mind that despite their remit being 13-25 year olds they are operating in 40 primary schools in Scotland)
Yeah I feel ya……
In September I wrote a piece for the Scottish Union for Education Newsletter 83 about instincts regarding the protection of children. And how slow bureaucracies are to react when the evidence is right before their eyes. The bigger the bureaucracy, the bigger maze to untangle when things go wrong. Now we have the added ‘kryptonite’ of ‘inclusivity’. This moniker provides a smokescreen for practices that are (and should not be) permitted in schools. As a result more children are put in harm's way. Following is an (edited but) longer form version of that story. For me it reminds me how important individual action and accountability are. There is no ‘hero’ moment. Our children need us to take action in the here and now.
In 1993 a Pennsylvania primary school teacher Joanne Chambers received a series of 42 threatening letters and gestures which included razor blades placed under her car door handle, a barbie doll look alike with blood dripping over it sent in the post, faeces smeared over her school desk chair and a fresh animal liver dripping with blood left at the school. Upon looking at the evidence the police surmised that the perpetrator must have been driven by professional jealousy of Chambers and landed on colleague Paula Nawrocki. Once Nawrocki had been named as a potential suspect Joanne went on to make further claims that Paula had attempted to mow her down with her car.
Upon proceeding with the investigation the police tested the saliva on the letter stamps and envelopes only to find that Chambers had been stalking herself. Further investigation uncovered that previous schools Chambers had worked showed a similar pattern of deviancy wherein she had reported ‘anonymous threats’ and accused fellow teachers. When her colleagues had tried to address Chambers clearly mentally unstable position they were sidelined and she moved to another school.
I found out about this story when I was a jobbing actor in Philadelphia and was hired for several episodes of the crime series Forensic Files . You can see my stellar “acting” demonstrated here,(in other words my eye ball, finger tips and nose in the dramatic recreation of the crimes ).
The series of events begged belief but what never crossed my mind at the time - given that the focus of the investigation was between Chambers and Nawrocki is that all the while Chambers continued to teach small children.
I doubt any parent would feel any comfort knowing that such an individual had access to their children no matter ‘what a nice person’ they purported to be. Clearly Chambers was mentally disturbed and should not have continued to teach this vulnerable cohort. I don’t know if she was merely wicked or mentally ill, regardless her behaviour should have immediately given her a ticket out of the teaching profession. Living in a lie must be exhausting, as lies lead to more lies and soon truth becomes even more unfamiliar.
One might think this could never happen here, think again.
The Chambers story is an extreme example, but does it provide some insight into where bureaucracy can go very wrong? Many teachers spoke out about their concerns and were ignored. In my time as Parents and Supporters Coordinator for
parents and teachers equally have come to me with concerns about teachers who exhibit ‘strange’ behaviour because their schools, their councils do nothing about it. LGBT Youth Scotland is a prime example.When bureaucrats don’t have to face the realtime fallout of their decisions they can go to sleep unhindered by their decisions, the families who they rule over however are not so lucky. Add to that teachers who don’t have day to day relationships with the families of the children in their care, and there is no accountability. Also in this new digitised world, anonymity and harassment become all the easier for people with pathological tendencies. These medium can be weaponised in ways previously unimagined quite easily.
Following is an amalgamation of stories I have heard direct from parents and colleagues. (*note: of course most teachers do not demonstrate these kinds of pathologies but we would expect and hope if they did, they would be removed from contact with children)
A teacher who exhibits pathological behaviour when with the children in their charge. And when parents try to address this ‘oddness’ the same teacher creates multiple online personas to target parents and colleagues when concerns about behaviour are brought to light in community forums.
Some parents report their employers have been targeted by sock accounts as a result of them speaking out about a teacher. The sock account appears to belong to the teacher they are complaining about.
Parents report that letters have been written by alter egos and sent to the Headteachers of the school this teacher worked at, appearing to defend the accused teacher (when in fact was defending self).
The parents report unhealthy and damaging patterns are able to continue within the school settings the teacher operated in. Even when parents and colleagues followed professional protocol no action was taken. In fact these individuals were able to provide a smoke screen to due diligence citing homophobia and disability.
Parents report this continued lack of transparency keeps the schools and students from interrogation of good practice, wherein vulnerable children are left in these teachers care.
Further it was reported by the parents that materials were discovered in the school library which promoted bestiality and paedophilia.
Parents tell me these individuals have sexualised perverse adult interests which are promoted online. These personas and projects are accessible by the very school children in their care, with the option for contact.
Bonkers right? And hugely concerning for all involved.
The question is how many cases have to come to light till Scotland actually follows through with the ‘Getting It Right for Every Child’ mantra . This was clearly not the case related to the trans nursery teacher whose right to lie (that he was a woman) overrode child development (that they trust their instincts). And I am increasingly hearing of teachers demanding that the children in their care validate their identities with pronoun use. As I stated in my account of the trans nursery teacher, a teacher who cannot handle a child misgendering them, mayhaps is not well suited to the vocation of teaching.
And yet we must remind ourselves that children’s vulnerabilities being exploited by people and organisations holding authority is not a new thing. We only have to look in recent history as to the Catholic Church Abuse scandal to see how tribalism and power protected the most nefarious behaviours imaginable. Or the BBC with the charges brought again Huw Edwards who has been found to have possessed the most vile child abuse images . Or Jimmy Savile. But these were all ‘nice guys’!
Funny enough being able to speak in coherent sentences does not absolve one from being an utter bastard. Nor wearing a badge incidentally.
It seems bad habits die hard, and we are no better at protecting children today then 30 years ago. I would surmise that the whole critical social justice curriculum in our schools is grooming children to be zealots at war, and robbing them of their childhood. Abuse re-branded as ‘developing global citizens’.
Certain buzzwords are like kryptonite keeping us from being able to interrogate WHY and HOW children are being abused through the teacher activists who prostylise- anti-racism, anti-semitism, homophobia, alt-right. Say these words and it absolves the speaker from any responsibility or accountability.
And this blindness means we are NOT ‘Getting It Right for Every Child’. Any good teacher who really cares about children will put themselves, their beliefs, their identity and their careers to the side in order to ensure children are safe.
Yet we have numerous examples where this is clearly not the case. Cult like mantra replace child safeguarding.
As stated previous, LGBT Youth Scotland is the most notorious anti-child and anti-safeguarding organisation operating in Scotland today. With full and intimate access to our children, funded by our taxes, with no democratic oversight or accountability. It’s founder James Rennie was jailed for running the most sinister child sex abuse ring in Scottish history, did it dissolve after that fact? No. This summer new allegations came to light of a certain Andrew Easton, who co-wrote their ‘Guide to Coming Out for Trans Young People’ has been found guilty of distributing images of child sex abuse .
In the interim we have seen how the organisation exploits the vulnerabilities of the children who access it’s services grooming them for further harm. In the aftermath of a meeting in Holyrood in May 2024 to address trans ideology in school individuals related heartbreaking tales, Dr. Jenny Cunningham writes of the single link to this extremist organisation who operate in cult like techniques to recruit new members was LGBT Youth Scotland.
And the ongoing claims of grooming and abuse of former members who attended as children.
In addition to the the cohort of LGBT Youth Scotland allegations we have Jordan Linden former councillor branded a ‘sex pest’ who worked with the Scottish Youth Parliament , ex-SNP equalities officer Cameron Downing who was found guilty of sexual assault , and lest we forget the foundations of the Paedophilia Information Exchange are in Edinburgh,
Yet the more parents and concerned members try and address this fact the louder they shout ‘homophobia’. All any of us wants is robust and consistent safeguarding. This is clearly not happening.
In the words of Malcolm Clark, one of the founders of LGB Alliance:
“Our mantra should be a new version of Stonewall’s famous motto. Some gay men are predators. Get over it.
This should mean that any gay man who has access to boys is monitored with all the unforgiving intensity accorded to a heterosexual man with access to girls. We are no worse than other men. But neither are we any better. It’s time the whole predator-ridden, predator-excusing, predator-justifying LGBTQ+ lobby was forced to acknowledge this.”
Yet this seems far from happening and I wonder how many children have to be harmed before our institutions catch up? Because the LGBT Cabal and its army needs to do a house clean. In fact the whole education system needs to remember that they are there to serve children, not a cause. Until they do, the casualties will continue to pile up. And we parents should not stand for it.

Great piece, thank you. Gender ideology is the perfect cover for predators and when you look at the ‘founders’ of Queer Theory it would appear that they created it specially for that purpose.
I appreciate that Hegelians and their Marxist descendants love contradiction, as they believe it produces ripe dialectical fruit. However I have not yet understood why they thought they would get away with the hypocrisy at the heart of queer theory. If truth is just power, then the power of an adult over a child where the formation of truth is concerned makes adults dictators. Foucault's defenders apparently don't see the irony in the great liberator's abuse of colonised boys. And of course Marx got his slave girl pregnant.
Perhaps some us were misinformed that queer theory is a critique of hegemonic power. Instead, it can be understood as a user manual for achieving that power. Fortunately, this method is only effective in the short term, as long as other people are willing to defend the notion of objective reality. One day you're the head of a government-funded NGO, the next day you're in prison.
