If a trans child falls in the UK, do they make a sound?

Trans could widen to include healthcare. We still have a puberty blocker and hormone ban under 18.

Yes. Burnham is the same as Starmer. Believes in nothing. Probably once did believe in things but Labour Together have shown him how faked authenticity can get you to the top. Now everything he does is from their scheming and the results of focus groups.

Burnham thinks hurting trans people is a small price to pay for avoiding headlines.

Burnham has imposed; 1. The trans segregation & toilet ban 2. The trans Section 28+ to segregate & bully children in school That makes Burnham the most transphobic Prime Minister ever, & by a very wide margin. The fact that he is saying nothing about makes him a *coward* as well as a transphobe.

I thought 'What countries have been missed out? I know, Portugal.'. Google says 400 Euros per month. The UK state pension is rubbish but manipulating a list to make us bottom is unhelpful, if that's what's happened.

Labour is all over the place on AI. Giving young free workers to big donor Sainsbury's but also supporting AI global companies which are killing jobs for youngsters.

Struggling to work out why Jenrick would single out these three Commonwealth countries rather than, say, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, whose citizens have exactly the same rights. It’s a head-scratcher.

Independent Sage were zero Covid, keep schools closed until they've got ventilation. What was needed then and is needed now on trans is nuance. Not extremists on either side. eg The upsides of affirmative care and the downsides. The public are there now with Covid.

@novaramedia.com on Burnham’s flip-flopping transphobia; this reveals his most pathetic side. Looks like he is not going to stand up for a marginalized minority against the powerful forces of the mega-rich & hard right. On his watch the UK will become the most transphobic “liberal”“democracy”.

The day the Cass report was published Yvette Cooper said "It should be implemented in full". She is a very quick reader.

Burnham is the worst of the Labour transphobes. He backs the toilet ban and says trans people have to 'stop arguing'. I'm not sure even Rowling or Trump would say people should 'stop arguing'.

Just the other day Cass was pushing for the puberty blocker trial to continue. She said blockers will allow 'therapy' to help youngsters avoid a lifetime of medication.

Tony Silver @tony-silver.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
I'm a supporter of puberty blockers but Cass is all over the place. Her report claimed the high % moving to hormones meant blockers are not a time to think. Now she's giving that reason for allowing blockers. She said only around 50 youngsters would benefit from blockers, the study is for 200.

@stuartgoldsmith.bsky.social I was just listening to the Joyelle Nicole Johnson episode of The Comedian's Comedian. She talked of escaping the US to the UK but you didn't mention how the UK is like a red state in terms of trans rights and politicians' attitude to immigrants.

I want it to be true too but 'the researchers did not have sufficient health data to distinguish the effects of Ulez and lockdown.'

Tony Silver @tony-silver.bsky.social · 11/06/2026
The decision is inconsistent with the approach taken with ex Tavistock youngsters. Those who were already approved for medication were sent to a wraparound service and blockers continued. Over 200 of them. Even though their assessment was allegedly so bad the clinic had to close.

EXACTLY as trans people have been warning for at least 15 years. If they impose a policy of forced birthing in the UK, every “gender-critical” transphobe will be to blame.

This is an awkward but thoughtful response from Josh Newbury MP. He is on the same page as us legal folks. Rare.

Appleby tweeted his opposition to puberty blockers before he was asked to do this study. I had saved a link but he deleted it. I've since learned to save screen shots.

Andy Burnham has made a pact with Labour Together who have stood down their MP. He is a fan of NHS privatisation historically and recently the Special Economic Zones which remove workers' and other right, the Brexiters' dream. He can't be more open about not being left wing.

I used to love Ian Dunt's content on Brexit. Then during Covid, the rise Starmer and UK attacks on trans rights I hated his output. I was never bothered about his arrogance. But this top 10 is superb.

As a parent the only education I've seen in the new clinic is me explaining to the senior clinicians, who have no experience of gender care, basics like how puberty blockers are given post 16 years alongside hormones for people born male.

One instance where Cass doesn't see the need for evidence. She said this on banning social media "Consider nut allergies. When children died, their families demanded action to protect others,” and “We did not tell grieving parents we needed more data or that causation wasn’t conclusive"

Another day, another attack on trans healthcare. If no hormone prescription is given, the youngsters who are on blockers, including the dozens under the NHS will be in limbo with bone density and other impacts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Private Eye reports the MHRA halting the puberty blocker trial but does not mention the scandal that the chief medical and scientific officer, who made the decision, was recused for posting GC messages on Twitter. Why does that magazine exist if it covers up scandals? @privateeyenews.bsky.social

Starmer signed the letter when he thought it was a good attack line. Once he realised it was backfiring, he U turned. The key to understanding Keir Starmer is that he is almost unique in politics in that he believes in nothing.

Dunt's hero Keir Starmer has let the 5 year old use our airbases. At this point it's obvious that Starmer knows he won't be re-elected. He's just making sure he replaces Blair post politics and gets on the next peace board so he can become a millionaire.

GCs have some standard flaws. They don't understand the difference between evidence and proof or fact from opinion. They also don't get that medicine is about balancing side effects with benefits.
