I'm just shocked that the Supreme Court doubted the authority of WPATH's experts.

A serious problem, especially if resources for wider support don't accompany the transfer. But I can also understand the desperation of London Boroughs who have to pay up to 5x more to accommodate homeless applicants locally (and their ratepayers who have to fund that). Doesn't seem... 1/

Difficult to see Tulip Siddiq's career surviving these questions.

This appointment is consistent with the role he took in Labour's campaigning & strategy. Can't honestly say I'm surprised or offended.

Yup. Dr. O-K explains the lack of positive effect for puberty blockers by claiming her research subjects were already very stable & happy before treatment started, so it's not possible to measure improvement. Would disprove the "epidemic of suicide" myth if it was true (it isn't).

This is surely pivotal. If a major government-funded study managed by a "trans youth" advocate can't provide any evidence of positive outcomes after 9yrs, the effectiveness of the treatment is plainly unproven. And so, as the UK Cass Review advised, we *must* pause for proper research findings.

When you're systematically blocking an eminent barrister like this for discussing her field of expertise, something has gone very wrong. Please don't return to the excesses of Twitter, where women were suppressed, banned and bullied for having gender critical views.

What is this nonsense? There's nothing remotely "intolerant" about a barrister commending a legal submission in an important case.

Disappointing to see such censorious & judgemental behaviour from Bluesky admins.

I hope you're right, but I fear that some may indeed wish to cause a problem at the cenotaph. The official marshals & police will need to watch out for breakaway groups, and I'm sure that will be addressed in planning.
