When families tell her their number one worry, that trans youngsters will commit suicide, Cass speaks in the press of her anger.

Here she is, using emotional blackmail.

She is still a special advisor to the new gender clinics.

'Judge me on what I do' she told Libby Brooks.

Cass wrote a ranting letter about adult care.

Levy ignored it and produced a measured report just before Christmas.

It's been buried. Within a day of Cass report release MPs were saying all 32 recommendations will be implemented.

True but the SEGM involvement makes me very wary.

I haven't seen the SEGM criticise the trial, which the other groups have.

With them having trial designers like Dr Absoud attending their conferences there's a danger that they want an NHS backed trial saying no net benefit.

Agreed.

Also, Levy was a kick in the teeth for Cass.

She wrote that letter calling for similar measures to be made in adult clinics and they weren't.

I skimmed through the recommendations.

It's better than Cass in that there is nothing recommended that would definitely ban affirmative healthcare.

The question is, what holes does it leave for the GCs embedded in the NHS to use a sensible sounding report to remove care.

Streeting is such a c*nt. Doesn't even let people enjoy Christmas.

Families and trans people have barely a week go by without some life changing announcement.

How sure are you that it wasn't you that ordered it then fell asleep?

Libby Brooks is usually a better journalist than this, including on trans issues.

When a rag says 'after' it is to make the reader think it's 'because'.

The Mail and Telegraph did it on Peggie and they do it on suspended teachers and the like.

You missed one piece of good news in this thread.

Easily done as it wasn't covered by Hannah Barnes etc as it is against their narrative.

The 1st December win for GenderPlus and CQC where the right to appeal the recent judgement was rejected.

Many people predicted that the mortgage situation was madness before the 2008 crash.

AI is overrated, many in the public can see how crap most of it is.

We're heading for an AI crash similar to the .net crash of the turn of the century.

Good luck

Yes but also Rayner and Reeves. They don't even pay the tax they should until they're exposed.
