BBC IS GROOMING OUR NATION – ROBIN AITKEN

Jun 21, 2025

Robin Aitken, former BBC journalist and author of the acclaimed book The Noble Liar, shares his candid views on the BBC’s persistent and troubling promotion of transgenderism and liberal ideology. His comments follow the release of the BBC series ‘What It Feels Like for a Girl’, written by and portraying the life of male convicted robber, Paris Lees. Robin offers incisive insights into how the media, particularly the BBC, aggressively shapes public attitudes. You can watch our full discussion online.

Robin strongly criticises the BBC’s role in moulding societal views, stating emphatically that the broadcaster “has groomed the nation to accept certain things which once upon a time were not acceptable”. He gives a scathing review of ‘What It Feels Like for a Girl’, describing its portrayal of transgenderism, prostitution, drug use, and promiscuity as “squalid and sordid”. He highlights the programme’s dangerous presentation of deeply troubling behaviour as “value-free”, warning of irreversible treatments, profound psychological damage, and a severe undermining of traditional moral and family values.

He points to the sharp contradiction between the BBC’s agenda and the clear evidence that traditional marriage significantly improves personal happiness, child outcomes, and societal stability. We discuss how marital breakdown is bad for society and particularly bad for children, reinforcing the indisputable benefits associated with committed, one-man-one-woman marriages.

Robin concludes with cautious optimism, asserting that societal values can shift positively as younger generations increasingly reject empty liberal promises and seek genuine happiness through stable marriages and families. “People can be persuaded and shown that a return to those values is good for them, good for their children, good for their families, and… will make them happier.”
