Adam Brooks has launched a scathing attack on the NHS for treating transgender children, calling it "an utter disgrace" and "child abuse".
His comments come as it was revealed the NHS is treating nursery-age children who believe they are transgender after watering down its own guidance.
Up to 10 children of nursery age are currently receiving treatment, according to data released by the health service.
Many as 157 children aged nine or younger have been referred to specialist gender clinics.

Speaking about this on GB News, Adam Brooks said: "This is an utter disgrace. As a father of three children and someone who is against the trans agenda, I want to make it clear that I'm not against trans people.
"I'm against this trans agenda being forced upon our children and shoved down our throats.

"There is no such thing as a 'trans kid.' There is such a thing as a confused child or a child with mental illness.
"Many of the kids referred to gender clinics had mental health issues or autism.
"In my opinion, this is child abuse.
"I believe there are parents out there—some who are warped and perverted—who want to push their kids into this trans ideology, and I believe they should be investigated. This needs to stop. I don’t pay my taxes to fund this."
A source close to the consultation process told The Telegraph that NHS England had "caved to the pressure" of trans activists to remove age limits.
New guidance is due to be published showing that children of any age are eligible for gender treatment.
The NHS previously said that children under seven years old were "just too young" to be considered to have gender dysphoria.
Draft guidance published in 2023 stated that showing interest in clothes or toys of the opposite sex is "reasonably common behaviour in childhood" and not usually indicative of gender incongruence.
The NHS is 'treating trans toddlers'
PAThe guidance was drawn up following the Cass Review into children's transgender services, which found the NHS had been sending children on a one-way path to change gender at the Tavistock clinic.
The clinic was closed after it emerged doctors routinely prescribed puberty blockers despite lack of evidence supporting their safety and effectiveness.
The NHS has since begun opening more "holistic" regional gender clinics.
The children are not given powerful drugs such as puberty blockers at the clinics, but are offered counselling and therapy along with their family.
