Gonna say it again: the problems with mental health in my social circle are largely linked to the actions of Wes Streeting.

The surge in mental ill health is hugely distressing. That’s why I’ve commissioned a review to find out what’s driving it, says health secretary Wes Streeting

Hey Wes, I can save you the trouble. The reason a lot of people are struggling with their mental health in the UK is it fucking sucks here. Aside from usual late-stage capitalism stuff, everything that could be cool about living here has been systematically made worse by people like you, you cunt.

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

That Kishwer Falkner was able to complete a term as chair of the EHRC, and not be made to resign in shame, shows how transphobic this country is.
She turned the EHRC into a weapon against trans people, and nobody with any power did a thing.

BBC Now Calling Trans Women 'Biological Males Who Identify As Women'
These stories come in the aftermath of allegations that a small but mighty cabal of “LGBT reporters” had somehow seized control of the BBC and “censored” right-wing views.

In 2012, a Conservative government awarded April Ashley, a trans woman, an MBE for "services to trans equality".
How far are we from a Labour government revoking that award, because trans people don't deserve equality?

the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.
even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.
they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.

Yet again, I am going to ask everyone to look at the 'farmers' hands driving the tractors / being interviewed in this protest.
If they have soft hands they are not farmers, they are tax dodging managers. Farmers have giant sausage fingers covered in cuts.

damn, well I'm sure the MET will come down on them with the same enthusiasm they have for arresting climate protestors
It's looking as if the farmers protest in Whitehall today have ignored the police request not to bring their tractors.

This is exactly how it is in the UK under the Labour party and Wes Streeting. Trans kids visibly disabled and marked for life because their healthcare is being unlawfully blocked.
The mistreatment of adults is no better. No FFS or boob jobs to compensate for deliberately hostile healthcare.

The rush to ban puberty blockers for trans kids is so that having gone through an inappropriate puberty, they look “trans” for the rest of their lives. So they are easily identifiable.
