The lectureer, Rutger Bregman said that President Trump was the “most openly corrupt president in American history”. This was removed before his lecture was broadcast on Tuesday.
Because, of course, what he said was true.

If you think that the current state of trans healthcare in the UK is because of concern or caution, I'd encourage you to think again.
It's not medically informed, it's a reactionary response to transphobic bigotry whipped up into a frenzy over the past few years.
And it costs lives.

As Bridget Phillipson weighs new ‘single-sex space’ guidance, the debate reduces trans lives to a policy dilemma. This is an evasion of moral responsibility, writes columnist Aimee Walsh

Evidence has now emerged of the adverse consequences of the laws banning GAHT for trans youth in both the US and UK. This includes sharp declines in mental health and increased suicide attempts among transgender young people.

New research shows trans kids on hormone treatment have less suicide ideation
A new report has shown that transgender youth who are on hormone treatment have a reduced level of suicide ideation.
The research builds upon earlier work, but this time examined a much larger cohort.
