I'm in the The Times and The Sunday Times on the campaign to ban 'conversion therapy' - it is a red herring to try to shut down debate of the kind that led to the Cass review.

Maya Forstater excellent on GB News - and making such an important point: there is no such thing as a “trans child”.

I would like Ava-Santina to give evidence of when “TERFS” - no toxic discourse there - tried to stop gender-troubled children getting therapy.
Many of these TERFs were actually… therapists.

I sometimes wonder whether this weird coincidence played a part in my story.

CGD and the Endo society share a building in Washington DC. Luke from HR was on the Condo Board with his opposite number.

🚨 New systematic review exposes deceptive practices among medical organizations that endorse youth transition. Rather than relying on robust evidence, medical authorities fabricated consensus by deferring to each others' guidelines.

LBC Ben Kentish The Cass report isn’t about a broad notion of “trans rights” it’s about serious failings in healthcare for gender questioning children. A lot of people care greatly when the medical profession fails children as is comprehensively detailed in report, and that’s a good thing 1/2

Pleased to see #CassReport published.

We now need to see it implemented asap to protect children. Medical care must always focus on best quality evidence based practice, not ideology.

Deb Cohen is one of the very few journalists who has come out well from the scandalous story of how the treatment of gender distress in young people was captured by ideologues. She's a hero for her work at Newsnight with Hannah Barnes. Well bloody done, Deb!

Well, it’s been quite the day on X. Lost a few followers, had to block a few people, gained about 100 new followers, all of whom have been lovely &kind.

Thank you, new followers.

I’m sad to have lost a few people I thought were friends. But I’m grateful for this new community.

Wishful thinking probably - some time ago I posted what I thought was a very even-handed comment saying that I had met Rachel Rooney, admired her poetry and considered her a good person, and observed that both 'camps' in the debate could be guilty of excessive abuse - the result…

Thx to the Daily Mail Online for having me. Thank goodness Hilary Cass has put ethical medicine back where it belongs. At the centre of clinical considerations. Genspect TransgenderTrend Clinical Advisory Network on Sex and Gender SEGM LGB Alliance Sex Matters

Twenty years since Susan Evans first blew the whistle.

Everyone who condoned, facilitated or turned a blind eye to #NoDebate tactics should recognise that there have been consequences for vulnerable children and young people.

In light of the Cass final report we ask the leadership of @TheGreen Party to remember the party’s core Green values, protect our reputation, and return us as a party of reason and science. Carla Denyer, Adrian Ramsay Zack Polanski Anthony Slaughter

Read our full statement below:

Mia The 1% myth is an example of what the Cass report called “circularity”. Weak academic or clinical research is amplified by repeated citations from other researchers, clinics and activist organizations. The 1% came from a tavistock review of their patient lists. Essentially, they…

Mia They had to change a law so that Cass could even make the request for the study. The request to the clinic was that they ignore signed documentation by parents about their children's medical records. One of many points where Cass doesn't value research ethics.

Perhaps now is a good time to share a FB post I made about our Stonewall demo back in 2019. I seem to remember there was much criticism from certain quarters regarding the very powerful images Kellie-Jay Keen produced.

At last, the #CassReview brings long needed common sense to the debate about gender treatment for children. To be clear NHS England should never have commissioned treatments with irreversible consequences to be administered to minors. Informed consent cannot be given by children
