The relentless obfuscation is getting ridiculous.

Trans inmates can visit women’s prisons to prepare them for outside

The Times doesn’t mean “trans inmates”; it means male inmates who are or claim to be trans. The Times specifies female prisons but doesn’t specify male trans inmates – thus creating pointless confusion in its own headline. The Times presumably is not even captive to the ideology, so why on earth does it do this?

Prison executives in Scotland have ruled that transgender criminals can serve time in female jails to allow them to prepare for life as women on release, according to a report.

Male transgender criminals.

Even trans inmates deemed too dangerous to serve their sentences in women’s prisons may be allowed to mingle with female inmates. Women’s campaigners have branded the decision “outrageous”.

Last week the Scottish Prison Service (SPS) published new policy on the management of transgender prisoners, due to come into effect in February.

Critics argue that the door has been left open for trans women, including people [men] self-identifying as female who have convictions for violence against women, to serve their sentences in the female estate if there is “compelling evidence that they do not present an unacceptable risk of harm to those in the women’s prison”.

What could such “compelling evidence” be? Other than quadruple amputation?

The report says: “Transgender people in custody should be provided the opportunity and supported to work towards being accommodated in an estate that aligns with their affirmed gender so that, on release to the community, they have had the opportunity to live with those who share their affirmed gender.”

Does the report go on to say “Helpless women in custody should not be protected from the potential violence and abuse of delusional narcissistic men moving in with them”?

Russell Findlay, the Scottish Conservative shadow justice secretary, said: “The new policy on transgender prisoners effectively permits male sex offenders access to women’s prisons.

“In line with the SNP’s dangerous gender self-ID law, the rights of male-bodied sex criminals who say they are female are deemed more important than vulnerable women in custody.”

Conservatives get this while “progressives” do everything they can to conceal it.
