We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak".
But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.

This is the key point everyone should remember. If rights don't apply to everyone, they apply to no-one. Rather, they are privileges granted to you by the beneficence of authority and can be withdrawn at any point.
As soon as they don't apply to all humans, they cease to be human rights, and become just rights for the privileged based on hierarchy.
