A genuinely appalling response from the BBC, arrogantly contemptuous of the legal detail in favour of whatever misleading narrative their 'gender critical' friends have peddled them over lunch.
The BBC is nakedly peddling fake news - and refusing to apologise for doing so - in furtherance of its transphobic agenda. 🧵

In a screeching u-turn from its Manifesto the Government now backs conversion therapy for trans people. That is what 'supporting' trans youth but denying them the medicine they need to physically transition means.
Government 'moving away' from puberty blockers, minister says

I spoke in Parliament today to challenge the misinformation from those claiming this tribunal as a 'win' for the anti-trans agenda.

In fact it found Ms Peggie harassed a colleague for being trans, and it dismissed almost all her claims.

It also found that trans segregation is not supported in law.
We've written & published a short summary statement regarding the Sandie Peggie V NHS Fife Health Board employment tribunal case & the judgment given yesterday. Much of the media coverage has missed key information, the most important aspect being that all claims against Dr Beth Upton were dismissed

I’m so angry and upset. These women do not speak for me.

In dark moments I’m relieved that Alice isn’t here to witness it, for how could I protect her? All a mother wants is to keep their child safe.

Then I feel broken that I even thought that.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

This is standard in NI. People removing loyalist terrorist insignia are causing problems while the police protect the people who put them up.

It's because they protect their own.

People rarely try to remove anything any more, intimidated into silence and inaction while politicians do nothing.

Has anyone made this FOI request of the south-west and the London CYP Gender services?

This post ⬇️relates to the north-west service, where not one young person has been offered medical transition since the service was opened over a year ago.

This isn't treatment. It's state sanctioned conversion.
#UK #TransRights An FOI has just confirmed what all of us have feared: for the Youth gender services, since July 2024, not a single patient has been referred to commence HRT. And 22 have been moved from youth to adult services , also without treatment. This is scandalous.

A barrister, Sarah Phillimore, led a campaign of harassment of a trans woman so wicked that she sought to take her own life. Jk Rowling saw the threat of regulatory sanction for that misconduct and offered to pay her legal costs.

That's where she now is.

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".

If you have a trans child you have a choice.

“you will either be your kid's first support or you'll be their first bully, those are the only two options"
i have had to calm a UK parent who'd heard scary stories about mutilation of children (!) and was worried about their nonbinary kid and what to do

what got through was "you will either be your kid's first support or you'll be their first bully, those are the only two options"

it worked out :-)
Parents who have concerns about trans kids in high schools are grounding their concerns in ignorance and unfounded fears, and we do everyone—including them—a disservice if we validate those concerns. As a party, the Democrats have to do a much better job of *ignoring* bigoted concerns.

I put in a formal complaint about this and they did a classic NHS move: boilerplate reply with a “fact sheet” about what they’re doing

I replied like, “I already know the facts. I’m not requesting info, I’m saying what you’re doing is immoral.” And they ignored it lol
The NHS are forcibly detransitioning trans kids in Brighton and calling it “managed withdrawal.” Their own impact assessment acknowledges trans kids will be at increased risk of harm as a result, don’t want this, and are likely to just use DIY hormones instead

Paul Burston is the founder of the Polari Prize and a supporter of LGB Alliance. Malcom Clark is a founder of LGB Alliance, and he is currently using transphobic slurs and calling trans women who have an issue with the Polari Prize "freaks."

That is what you support if you support the Polari Prize.

Service providers will be told to ask for birth certificates and interrogate service users to discover their "biological sex".

The guidance also ban trans men from female toilets on the basis that their presence would cause "alarm or distress".

Deliberately misgenderng children is abuse. Abuse causes a 64% likelihood of poor mental health into adulthood. If schools, parents & the Streeting/Starmer conversion therapy centres for trans kids do it they are deliberately harming children, harm that will continue throughout their lives.

For the overwhelming majority of people who practice it, sports is not about competition. It's about social belonging. Once you understand that, the reason why transphobes want to ban trans women from it even outside of competition and even in disciplines like darts is pretty obvious.
