Oslo University Hospital accused of illegal research on 1,700 children after data which was collected for quality assurance of healthcare services has been mined for research study without consent of children or their families.

The UK NHS is doing exactly the same - data harvesting without consent.

Australian report says UK’s Cass review should not guide transgender healthcare QNews LGBTIQA+ News

If I were an investigative journalist in the UK (are there any left?), I would be having a good look at the extent to which NHS leadership seems to have allied itself with a fringe medical movement that more or less condones conversion therapy. qnews.com.au/australian-r...

New Report Says Cass Review Should Not Be Benchmark For Trans Healthcare in Australia

Decades after a much cited study which claimed to 'prove' conversion therapy works for Trans youth, & which underpins claims made in the Cass Review, a now 60 year old Trans person has spoken out about the trauma she suffered during institutionalisation at 10 years old. Another nail in Cass.

Cass Review does not guide care for trans young people Good medicine is guided by the values of the patient, not those of a clinician, politician or commentator. The Cass Review, lacking expertise and compromised by implicit stigma and misinformation, doe...

An excellent new article outlining all that is wrong with the Cass Review, condemning its harmful impact on UK policy and practice, and calling it a failure of evidence-based medicine. Written by those involved in trans children's healthcare in Australia.

There were ~7000 children & young people on waitlists for NHS Youth Gender services in 2023. Only 22! were referred to the adult services in 2024? Thousands of youth are being kept in limbo, whilst those who do manage to be seen are subjected to the worst forms of harmful assessments & gatekeeping.

A van with a screen on the side saying Labour isn't working for LGBT+ voters. Stop the bathroom ban. A queue of people on a red background holding various pride flags.

We are at Labour conference, telling members about the impact of the proposed bathroom ban. It would devastate trans people’s lives, create unworkable business challenges, and alienate voters.

This would be Labour’s legacy on LGBT+ rights for a generation. But it’s not too late for them to stop it.

The Multi Disciplinary Board for Youth Gender Services is designed to gatekeep & control. Now evidenced it has a 100% success rate in blocking Trans youth from accessing healthcare. I have heard some truly shocking things about their sessions where young people & families are subjected to trauma.

Safety Advice:

I keep seeing young trans people on social media talking about therapists disrespecting their pronouns and parents telling them that the therapist has a right to their beliefs.

I want to be clear: you have a right to the therapy room being a safe supportive space for YOUR growth.
