"Gender GP provides access to a vital service to adults that should have been fulfilled by the NHS provision."

Nothing else. No other statement given by anyone. Give them no soundbites or wiggle room.

They are coming for private transitional healthcare. I'm warning you all.

A wild read, from start to end.
A bigot tried to use autism and Catholicism to attack LGBTQ+ inclusion in a private business' premises, targeted the wrong company, used AI to write his complaints, and changed his story halfway through and late.
He's now liable for costs, having failed spectacularly.
In the Sheriff Appeal Court, an Edinburgh man's case against Natwest claiming £35,000 in damages for breaches of the Equality Act as a result of his "phobia of Pride-related paraphernalia" has been dismissed. www.scotcourts.gov.uk/media/ygvbue...

We have allowed sociopaths and psychopaths to create a society in which only they can thrive.

This comment was completely unrelated to trans rights, but when I read it, I instantly thought of the fact that if trans people had billions like the bigots, we’d probably be able to buy the peace required to get on with our lives.

How sad.

Something that should be laid at the feet of Wes Streeting and likewise the SNP dragging their heels in Scotland -

If hormone therapy saves the lives of trans youth, what, logically, does that mean denying that care achieves?
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

Trans healthcare in Glasgow waitlist: 200 years
We're continuing to make real progress in our NHS. Waits for treatment have fallen for the fifth month in a row.

I do actually consider myself a trans activist, but I didn't choose to become one.

It was forced upon me and I still fight against it every day because I don't want to be a trans activist.

I just want to live my life unbothered.

Fun fact: I have had several surgeries in the hospital that Powell died in.

Every time, I considered cancelling as I didn’t even want to be in the same building he ever was in, but UK healthcare (even private) is abysmal and I didn’t have that option.
If multiple people can remember someone being horribly racist, even by the appalling low bar of the racist 1970s, that is entirely noteworthy.

As an adult Farage fanboyed Enoch Powell - the most infamous racist of the 1960s - and long cited him as his political hero.

And that's noteworthy too.

I have pathologised my gender incongruence so much to try justify existing in the UK, for the entire medical and legal establishment to just laugh in my face and tell me to fuck off.
stop pathologizing yourself

In 2023, a man was rightly charged for calling the then-Leader of the Scottish Greens Patrick Harvie, a "deviant" on the street, for supporting trans people.

In 2025, a man was CLEARED of calling a trans minor a “sissy-porn watching groomer” on the street.

I think we are long past the point of noting the judiciary is ideologically captured by bigots and extremists
It is genuinely insane to see a judge describe Graham Linehan as a “generally credible witness” in a trial where he claimed Sophia Brooks has been engaged in “trans activism” since 2013 (when she would’ve been 6 years old), then, when challenged, claimed her drivers license lied about her age.

No other Western European country has to deal with this shit.

They all have the luxury of getting on with their lives. Trans people are never in court, never in the papers.

We are tormented every minute of every day in the UK.
What is the motivation for trans people in the UK to continue to contribute to this society?

What are we getting out of our taxes or making effort to be socially cohesive?

And every trans person in this country knows this is true now in 2025.
That poor girl, the legal system is basically telling her she doesn't matter because she's trans.
