When I see the gov or orgs like GICs do things without transparency, it feels like a waste of time. If you cover shit up, we will find out about it. There's no point.

A "tale of institutional capture by a “powerful new lobby” of billionaire-funded trans activists" is how Helen (dodgy public reading habits) Joyce described her book, but this is what real institutional capture likes like, staff threatened with losing their jobs for signing letters

This is incredibly bleak and essential reading. Ideological capture of a health service to meet a political ideology fuelled by disinformation.

Grim stuff trans supportive care truly is being systematically dismantled in the UK

Outstanding article by our very own @alyx.whatthetrans.com, showing how any ideas and personnel who wanted to treat trans young people with respect and kindness have been completely sidelined in favour of a trans-hostile outlook. An essential read to understand the truth behind the Tavistock clinic.

Bleak. Some others also experience medics who innately disbelieve them, often at huge cost to their health. But a systematic takeover by hostile medics? This is the true scandal.

It's a scandal that no mainstream media outlet is willing to expose - telling us everything we need to know about the media class "Every person I have spoken to has had their jobs threatened and their work systematically undermined to prop up the work of those seeking to make trans lives worse"

I’ve spoken to several ex-Tavi clinicians and can corroborate everything that’s stated in this article. GIDS was targeted by ideologically driven ‘gender critical’ transphobes - both inside and outside the service - and replacing it with a non-affirmative model became a political project.

This report by @whatthetrans.com is dynamite. It shows how transphobic staff have taken over NHS trans children’s services & trans-supportive staff silenced with threats to their careers. If you have a trans child & care for them in any way, stay away from the NHS. whatthetrans.com/trans-allies...

A piece that I have just written. Really highlights the culture of fear inside the NHS. And there are so many stories of this in the NHS that it wasn't just Tavistock.

Some of you may have noticed horrid stuff going down at the Scottish Daily Express. Just FYI, we are putting together a response. If you would like to help, drop us a line at [email protected]

"When it mattered most, Long sided with cis power over trans survival" - My meeting with Northern Ireland Justice Minister Naomi Long to discuss why they backed a puberty blocker ban - open.substack.com/pub/hleehurl...

"In 60 days, it will have been a full year since the final report (April version) was published. None of the requests for the Cass Review’s internal materials have been fulfilled. We will soon find out whether the Cass Review is above the law."

Listened to the audio version on a run and this actually speaks in many ways to what I discovered summarizing work out of the U of York on trans youth experiences with GIDS.

From these results it is clear that @owenjones.bsky.social is right. The incompetent & fascistic Labour right are losers, and an electoral pact between the Greens, LDs, that Left-wing group that needs a decent name, (Renovate, Refurbish, Rebound…?) can be a winning challenge to the fash.

There has been a Court of Appeal decision on the dismissal of a teacher for her anti-LGBT FB posts, seen by at least one parent. This is the highest authority we now have on the protection of 'Gender Critical' beliefs. CoA held her dismissal was disproportionate & amounted to direct discrimination 🧵

NHS England refusing to release any information on the Cass Review claiming it doesn't exist and they were never responsible for it sure is a wild fuckin ride. This post is an excellent and important read

Wow

After 10 months of searching for the truth, it remains unclear why Hilary Cass included overtly transphobic talking points…
