Save the Children from Bad Leadership

I don’t like the Swedish branch of Save the Children for several reasons. It has worked against nearly all reforms making the lives of gay people better in this country, and a few years ago, it tried to hijack the It Gets Better campaign and make it into something else than an effort to stop the wave of suicides amongst bullied gay teenagers. Now this organisation is about to make Veronica Palm its new leader, which only makes it worse. Palm has on several occasions slandered Jews and shown poor judgement on anti-Semitic ideas. It’s sad to see an organisation with such a noble cause doing so badly.
