Colonel ‘Forced Out of Army’ After Stating ‘Men Cannot Be Women’

A colonel has claimed he was forced to quit the Army after he was criticized for stating that “men cannot be women”.

Dr Kelvin Wright, 54, had been a Reservist commanding officer with 14 years’ unblemished service, including two tours in Afghanistan, before his “honor was attacked” with a transphobia complaint and an investigation he described as “hellish”.

In May, he shared a post on his private Facebook account from Fair Play for Women, a campaign group that works with governing bodies to preserve women’s sport for those born female, which consisted of a quote from Helen Joyce, a feminist campaigner backed by the author JK Rowling. . .

This prompted a junior officer to warn him that his gender-critical views could be at odds with Ministry of Defense transgender policies, before what Dr Wright calls the Army’s “LGBT champions” allegedly drew up a seven-page dossier about his “substandard behavior” – which he was not allowed to see.

A formal Army investigation was opened in May that could have led to him being formally dismissed or censured under the Major Administrative Action process, through which he has been asked to make a statement. (Read more from “Colonel ‘Forced Out of Army’ After Stating ‘Men Cannot Be Women’ HERE)
