I think Transactual put it best (in reference to the girl guides) and now Labour too:
"There is no problem being solved here, only harm being done."
All to appease the right, who hate them anyway - shame on them.

The Labour government can bring section 14 of the Equality Act into force and use the Henry VIII power therein to reverse the Supreme Court’s decision literally within a matter of hours.
But Keir Starmer is a polite bigot who cynically invokes Brianna Ghey’s name while betraying her.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

As many, many, many people have been saying from the start, Labour should have been honest about Brexit all the way through. Every lie, every ‘jobs-first Brexit’, every ‘make Brexit work’ has been a nail in Labour’s coffin.
She is telling an accurate story of recent history - the triple punch of austerity, Brexit and covid. It's spot on. But it is terribly strange to say it now in government when you were not prepared to say it in opposition.

Saw a news report yesterday about children as young as 9 being given weight loss jabs on the NHS, and I think it shows just how utterly bullshit the “lack of research into long term impacts” excuse for banning puberty blockers for trans kids really was. It’s purely ideological.
