How gender ideology corrupts rape crisis centres

Yesterday, Mridul Wadhwa – a trans-identified male and the head of the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre (ERCC) – resigned, after a scathing report on the centre revealed how it had been corrupted by gender ideology.

The report was commissioned by Rape Crisis Scotland, which was forced to act after the ‘serious failings’ of the ERCC were exposed in an employment tribunal judgment in July this year. 

The case had been brought by a former ERCC employee, Roz Adams, who had been victimised by the centre because she held gender-critical beliefs. A judge found that she had been unlawfully discriminated against and unfairly dismissed, simply because she asked whether rape victims could be told the sex of the counsellor assigned to them. The judge described this as a ‘heresy hunt’.

The report exposes how transgender activists were ruling the roost across Scotland, running publicly funded rape crisis centres for their own twisted benefit.

According to the report: ‘Putting women in the position of having to discuss whether the service they receive will be provided by someone who was born and continues to identify as female has caused damage and does not amount to the provision of protected “women-only” spaces.
