To expand on that Genevieve Gluck X post I included in my post yesterday....from JL's report at the Glinner Update - The Wadha story is not over:
It is also worth noting that, in 2021, three women’s sector services in North Lanarkshire were forced into closure after their funding was withdrawn. The council then awarded its new £1.4 million contract to an organisation called Sacro which is not a specialist in domestic violence nor local to the area. Council officers said this decision was “Informed by the findings of gaps in services with respect to specific groups including LGBT+” and that Sacro ‘will better help male victims’. At that time, a man called Arun Gopinath, Mridul Wadhwa’s partner, was a Sacro director.
Wadhwa spent well over a decade working in the women’s sector, actively pushing an agenda that allows males into what used to be female-only services. Meanwhile, his partner was the director of a company which hoovered up lucrative contracts when these women’s services lost public funding because of their female-only policies.
