An excellent piece (£) in the new edition of The Spectator, prompted by “a young man who goes by the name of Montgomery Toms (who) attended a Pride parade” wearing a sandwich board stating (symbolically) that transgenderism is a mental illness. Murray continues:

“This is a tactic pioneered by an American man known as ‘Billboard Chris’, because his name is Chris and he wears a billboard. Chris’s schtick is to walk around with a sign saying things like ‘Children cannot consent to puberty blockers’. For making such inflammatory statements, Billboard Chris has been detained in a number of jurisdictions, largely because severely deranged people tend to flock around him when he wears this billboard, screaming abuse and showing that they are in no way mentally deranged.”

The line “Children cannot consent to puberty blockers” prompted the thought that the same applies, of course, to MGM. I therefore posted some lengthy comments on the matter, as is my custom, and some interesting exchanges resulted, here.
