Staff Of Pets At Home "Don't Feel Able To Challenge" Trans Guidelines "Pushed On Them"

A whistle-blower from Pets At Home has revealed a number of guidelines "pushed on" employees by the company that include "white privilege", "transphobia" and "correct pronouns".
The leaflet provides a glossary of "diverse" terms including Cisgender, Gender fluid, Intersectionality, LGBTQ+, Non-binary, Psychological safety, Transitioning and Transphobia.
The pamphlet also describes white privilege as: “The unquestioned and unearned set of advantages and benefits bestowed on people because they are white”.
TalkTV's Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by James Esses from Declaration for Biological Reality who initially exposed this experience of Pets at Home employees.

Is it the same force that is controlling our governments, you know the ones that control all the money and who they lend that money to. They know what they are doing and couldn’t care less if a company goes bust because of it. They have to be stopped as this is blackmail amongst other things.

    I have a friend (maybe not now!) who won’t speak to me as I pushed back to one of his friend’s (a white American woman) telling me “you have white privilege because black people were enslaved”. We are the UK - critical race theory is a theory based on USA history not UK! I replied that I didn’t enslave anyone, that no one who we were out with socially had, and that no one here had been enslaved. And that people from all races have been enslaved, including white people. And that black people, if we are going to focus on their slavery only, that black people were enslaved by black people that it wasn’t just white people who were slave owners. And that if we are going to focus on slavery/reparations, let’s focus on modern day slavery. Well, afterwards I got told by him “you dismissed black slavery” - I’m now cancelled and supposedly some terrible person. The only person who was black, present at that social, didn’t appear to take offence as she went out with me a week later!

In a Morrisons petrol station, stocky bearded man behind the counter, I paid for my petrol with a "thanks mate", he immediately snapped back "I actually identify as female, as you can clearly see!" - pointing to a name badge that read "Tracy". I was completely caught off guard, not quite sure what to say, until my 12 year old daughter stepped up for me with a "But 'Mate' isn't a gender." A few hushed sniggers from the queue of other customers, and we left, shaking our heads in disbelief. No doubt I'll be reported for some sort of hate crime now.

Mixing biological females and a tiny amount of biological males identifying as female is going to have dire consequences. Lessons are never learned.

    My mother spends a lot of money with Pets At Home and with it comes a membership card which gives you discount on certain items if you spend so much . Everytime i go there the staff are great ,friendly and helpful , i had no idea they have been subjected to this dillusional ideaology and are suffering in silence . The problem with boycotting this company is that it's the staff on the frontline that will lose their jobs as a result ,so it's very difficult to get companies to sweep this nonsense under the carpet i don't know what the solution is to get rid of this ,it's such a shame .

    I've had to get help to get back into work after losing my job in the NHS, I believe due to a bad and spiteful manager. When I saw something on an application form for a job that asked what my pronouns are, I just gestured frustration at the question and I was told by one person helping me "I think you just need to suck it up". At work I welcome any suggestion or change that improves my productivity but not anything that makes my day unnecessarily complicated, and I don't see how that helps me in my day. I'm autistic and suffering from burnout and memory failure, I can barely remember names and faces so I'll never be able to remember different pronouns for each person I meet.

We didn't think we could force the whole world to greet us that way. I behave how I was taught. That will be the same until I die. Fair enough if the next generation wants to change things they can do so, or if only some do, they can thrash it out between them, but you can't force any new ideal on previous generations. It is nonsensical to think they should. I don't care how anyone refers to me as long as it is respectful and accurate, so I don't have a preference anyway.

    You're confused because some people deliberately conflate sex and gender. Gender is grammatical: in English grammar, we divide our nouns into three types, "male", "female" and "neuter" ( he, she, and it). Grammatical gender is NOT the same as sex, you can quite happily refer to a ship as 'she', for instance. SEX depends on the 'sex' chromosomes you are born with, "pair" 23. A "pair" of XX, you are female. A "pair" of XY, you are male. Sadly, there are individuals for whom that does not apply.

    Insanity...the vast majorityof people couldnt care less about trans issues but what they don't want is to be forced to agree with other peoples delusions. The problem is the vast majority keep quite and these lunatics therefore get there voice heard

    Another to the boycotting list. Bravo Julia for supporting anyone who wishes to take this madness to court! You are a wonderful woman.

    Simple, don’t patronise Pets At Home unless you are trans. The shops will be near empty as there are not enough trans pet owners to keep it in business. Bud Light is a fine example of how people believe in this. They don’t.

    I could not work for a company like this and if I did I would be starting the job search process. At a time when the UK has a major productivity problem I am not sure if this is the best way for corporations to behave towards employees especially as the cost of hiring new employees is a significant cost.

    Is it against a persons human rights to be coerced into an ideology they don’t believe when they have got a job in a pet shop? Perhaps staff need to join forces and go after these organisations legally?
