I dug some Methylphenidate out of my drawer and all of a sudden there is no more limescale on my shower door. Sometimes I feel like that's all this drug is good for.

I remember one of the original big Denorah Cohen Newsnight reports on puberty blockers where they filmed in this attic full of abandoned toys and had creepy mannequin dummys and spooky music playing over it. It made Martine Croxalls eye rolling incident look like nothing.

This bit from 27mins in to the latest episode is referred to as the “trans issue” by John Sopel and the others.

It’s genuinely maddening that all these political talking heads flap about a right wing coup of the BBC but fail to see anti trans bias as part of that. Because it is bias they also hold.

So, @sophiemolly.co.uk’s outstanding article about the attack by Sussex NHS on trans kids in Brighton meant her article was taken down for a while. Glad to see it back up again, but we had to wait for THIS BLAND & MISLEADING statement by Sussex!! Pathetic.

northwestbylines.co.uk/news/health/...
A spokesperson for NHS Sussex said: Following concerns raised about some prescribing for children and young people by WellBN in Brighton and Hove, that may fall outside of national clinical policy and guidance, we are working with NHS England and have launched an investigation into this activity to ensure the most appropriate care and treatment in line with national clinical policy. Independent clinicians are reviewing medical records and prescriptions will continue during this process. We recognise this may be worrying for families, and our priority is safe, evidence-based care, with access to appropriate specialist services and support. NHS Sussex is not seeking to close the WellBN practice. Outside of the investigation, the practice continues to operate as normal.

To be really clear, Sussex ICB threatened, in writing, to close a Brighton GP practice serving 25,000 patients, purely to bully them into passing over child records. The GP did not want to pass on these records, because they understood the acute risk (& reality) of harm to trans adolescents.

Sophie's article is back up with a statement from the ICB. They are lying. They threatened Well BN with closure if they weren't given access to our childs records. Well BN held off for months, trying to stop them.

They contacted North West Bylines to remove my article untill they give a right to reply. They already gave a statement, which is included in the article.

The NHS's own impact assessment found this would increase risk of suicide. They are doing it anyway, & re-referring young people to the NHS gender service which is refusing to offer medication & instead mandates 'psychosocial therapy' designed by anti Trans conversion therapists. Utterly reckless.

In which a straight woman highlights a bunch of known anti trans activists and claims there's a divide in the queer community.

It's pure propaganda and gaslighting.

This is a great video, and a really horrifying story, but I want to point out something else about it, which is that there's a connection between the way that the EHRC participated in the Labour Together and Morgan McSweeney effort to bring down Corbyn, and the EHRC's turn towards transphobia.

This is why “do not comply in advance” is the answer.

Making this barbarism expensive to police makes this more of a problem to this Labour government than the in-built attacks on human rights.

"A blanket ban on access to gender- affirming spaces does not support healing. It retraumatises. It isolates. It tells vulnerable young people that their needs don't matter."

A powerful letter from a parent of a trans child in the National today, calling for the govt. to challenge EHRC guidance.
Guidance from EHRC should be challenged by Labour I WRITE as a feminist and the parent of a trans teenager. I have also spent years working to safeguard women and children. I understand risk- and where harm comes from. I'm writing because of the damage being done by the initial guidance on single-sex spaces from the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), and the urgent need for principled leadership from Keir Starmer. The trans community - and by extension, my child - faces hostility, suspicion, and dehumanisation simply for existing. The hatred I see online is terrifying. When politicians fail to stand up for their rights, it sends a chilling message: that trans people are not safe, not welcome, not worthy of dignity. That families like mine don't matter. But it also fails women. It misdirects their fear. The risk to women and children is overwhelmingly from cis men. Women are not safe in their own homes - why are we talking about toilets? This guidance doesn't protect women it undermines us. It shifts the burden of safety onto marginalised groups, rather than addressing the real sources of harm. It tells cis women that their fear should be directed at trans women, rather than at the systems that fail to protect them from male violence. It also divides us. It pits cis women against trans women, when we should be united in fighting misogyny, inequality, and abuse. It distracts from the real battles - like the epidemic of domestic violence, the failures of the justice system, and the rise of online misogyny. It offers a false sense of security while leaving the actual threats untouched. As a feminist, I find this deeply regressive. It's not about protecting women - it's about controlling spaces. And this brings me to the hypocrisy of current safeguarding rhetoric. Politicians claim to be protecting children, yet ignore the fact that many public spaces - swimming pools, for example - are not gendered. Children routinely share spaces with cis men, often with no supervision. No-one seems concerned about safeguarding in those contexts. Male children routinely stand beside adult men exposing themselves at urinals - yet no-one calls for reform in those spaces. Sex offenders are not routinely stopped from using public toilets. But no pearl-clutching for that. Why? Because the concern isn't about safeguarding - it's about targeting trans people under the guise of protection. The current political framing of trans people as a blanket risk is not only inaccurate - it's unethical. It is also incompatible with trauma- informed practice. Blanket bans and exclusionary policies ignore the complexity of trauma, identity, and safety. Trauma-informed work requires us to consider the individual, not to impose rigid categories. It demands that we create environments where people feel safe, seen, and respected. I am astounded that Labour have not yet publicly rejected the EHRC's guidance. Surely their role is to challenge it - not quietly adopt it. It is the role of politicians to lead, to legislate, to protect - not to defer responsibility. The EHRC's proposals are unworkable. They do not support the rights of my trans child. From what I've read, they are focused on exclusion, not inclusion. Are we going to segregate trans youth like it's 1950s America? That seems to be what Wes Streeting is suggesting. Will my child have to walk miles to find a toilet they can safely use? This issue does not exist in a vacuum. Women in the UK face enormous challenges. We have a police force riddled with misogyny. În Scotland alone, there were 65,000 reported domestic abuse incidents last year. We face inequality in healthcare, threats to reproductive rights, and systemic failures in protecting victims of violence. Online misogyny is on the rise. These are the issues that demand urgent attention. Yet here we are talking about single-sex spaces. This is not about protecting women. It is about stoking fear. It is about scapegoating a marginalised group. And it is deeply harmful - not just to trans people, but to all women. All this could have been avoided. So much harm has been done - harm that will take years to undo. My child's life has been made more painful, more difficult, more isolating. Not because of who they are, but because of what the Labour Party has legitimised. Because of the fear and hatred that has been fuelled. I urge Keir Starmer to reject the EHRC's guidance, to listen to trans people, parents and professionals, and to lead with empathy - and more importantly, with evidence. Because right now, Labour is failing trans children. As a parent, it's horrifying. Parent of a Trans Child
