This is slightly interesting, the wording has changed slightly on the GRC Statutory Declaration.
The one I made in late 2018 says "I intend to live full time as a female until death."
The current one says: "and I intend to live in that gender until death."

If I do not “live full time as a female” then I will have committed perjury which can result in a fine, a prison sentence or both.
How can I live as a woman when according to the Supreme Court and the EHRC, I am not one?

Ready to head into London for Trans Pride.
I don’t think it’s going to be a celebration this year but more of an act of defiance.
They won’t win, we will survive and thrive.

I guess the UK establishment are pretty happy with this outcome, LGBT authors like @taliabhatt.itch.io having their page blocked due to the Online Safety Act.
This on top of @itch.io things from their platform due to pressure from payment providers.

Exactly right. The JPAC decision notice they've based this off states to use female ranges; but for a trans man stable on HRT, this could allow them to donate at levels below safe limits.

This seems to be what NHSBT are basing their guidance off of without instead looking at the preceding points stating that they should take account of donors being on stable hormone therapy.
Another interesting point here is blood volume. This position document says this.

Further to my post last week about haemoglobin levels and being denied as a blood donor due to them using male minimums (I was also below female minimums, but they didn't use those for me).
Leaflet from NHSBT, and the blood test result by my GP.
Both within normal female range.
