Yep. Starmer/Streeting/Phillipson have created a conversion therapy system for trans children with the prime intention of harming and killing as many trans children as possible.
The NHS has now stopped all medication - puberty blockers and hormones - for trans minors. For most, unless they get drugs from other sources, this means a lifetime, in an increasingly violent and transphobic society, unable to pass. Under Wes Streeting NHS policy is harm and death for trans people.
"Agree with us or else" is very much the theme of this anti-trans movement. Or else you will be sued. Or else you will be harassed. Or else you will suffer violence.
If you have been blessed with a trans child;
1. Keep them away from the NHS
2. Try and move abroad if you can
3. Be prepared to fight transphobic staff at school
4. Find other sources of hormones/medication. If you can, get a car loan to pay for them.
5. Protect them from all governmental agencies.
Green MP Hannah Spencer pursued and attacked by anti-tran activists, but “violent man attacks woman for supporting trans people” goes against the “transphobes are the champions and protectors of women” narrative the media like to push so I guess it won’t get much play.
I endorse this advice.
No report in the Guardian about a woman MP being attacked on International Women’s Day by transphobic fascists after just a week in the job.
They have these “news” items though
Morning Ash. Now followed back 👍
“I see Tony Blair is criticising Starmer for not backing the US. What did I say Roy?”
“You said that warmongering bastard should shut the f**k up after Iraq.”

We do need it! 🌞☕️
Just Been out for my exercise walk this morning, and it’s currently drizzly and extremely misty. I do live by the coast though.
Coffee and pastries now ☕️🥐

Morning MC.
I've not even looked outside yet, but I can hear the sound of rain 🌧️☕
Love that Gif 😊
Unleashed the dogs of war.
Totally.
'It's not so bad' I thought when I got out of my car.
After the 10 minute walk to my flat, I felt that my soul had been soaked through*
*Possible, slight, maybe exaggeration.
Gin here. Gin.
And did I mention Gin?
Who?
Hi Lady Furball
Got drizzle and cold temperatures here in Devon. The sort of weather that seems to chill to the core.

And meeting @smartypantsmarty.com was a highlight, after following her work in founding Trans+ History Week, which is coming up 4-10th May:

Lovely picture ☺️
Good afternoon MC 👋☕️
They won't. They are going to get shafted. They are going to deserve it. And it's going to be hilarious.
A comment from Reddit user Ms_Masquerade, reading: "One day, decades from now, cis het people will apologise. They will grieve. They may even get angry and demand to know how people fell for every obvious lie in it's angry determination to destroy a group of people for no reason except votes, self-absorbed hatred and attention. But all that will ignore the obvious brutal truth to people in the future: emotions can not unkill those killed in cruel circumstances. No amount of regret from cis het people is going to bring back to life teenagers, just kids, who were driven to kill themselves by a society that wanted to tell them all how absolutely undesirable they are. These daughters, sons, brothers and sisters, forced into nooses, overdoses and razorblades by cruelty so profound, that even a medication that is as side effect free and reversible as medication can even get is denied to them on the back of lies. Not even small tiny gasps of relief are afforded. They will sadly be considered suicide so the charlatans, spiteful and gullible will avoid responsibility for what is not murder, not a serial killing, but a total massacre of children. There will be no punishment for these criminals, in the future or today, only punishment for the vulnerable today."
Trans people would much rather be able to live openly and freely as our authentic selves than be able to say "we told you so," but it looks like "we told you so" is all we're going to fucking get. 😒
I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
I totally agree. Covid changed everything, or, more likely showed people for what they truly are.
