I’m afraid I’m pretty serious about what’s likely. This is how the NHS works - especially in its upper echelons

UK state has catastrophically failed it's duty of care towards children for decades This is all downstream from NHS adopting Di Ceglie & John Money's lie that children have a 'gender identity ' Social services, NHS, education & govt captured Conversion Practice Bill cements it

Nearly 30 years in children and families for me. I agree with you. Accordingly, I hope you will vote against the appallingly poorly drafted Conversion Practices Bill

De barn som transitioneras är 1) sådana som hade vuxit upp till friska homosexuella om man lämnat dem i fred 2) De som har andra psykiska och neuropsykiatriska diagnoser och borde fått vård för dem i stället för hormoner
Nobody is telling me this. It is happening to gay youth. Check out the data from the Tavistock. I speak from experience. These are the statistics from the Tavistock. Wake the F up . You are in a cult.

Man who testified in court under oath that if a woman had requested same sex care he would ignore it, and go in to treat her anyway, causes upset for doing exactly what he said he would do under oath, The person harrassing others is him.

After 18 years in children’s services, I find this deeply troubling, repeated safeguarding warnings, vulnerable children put at risk, and a doctor who says she was silenced for speaking up. This demands answers. Protecting children must be the state’s first duty. 👇🏽
🚨Hilary Cass has called for an independent inquiry into how Brighton GPs were allowed to prescribe cross-sex hormones to children as young as 12.“There urgently needs to be an investigation of why every system that should have protected children, young people, and indeed young adults has failed,” she told me. The employment tribunal between Dr Sarah Redvers and NHS Sussex has highlighted how regulators and the NHS collectively failed to stop prescribing of puberty blockers and hormones against national guidelines - for years - and how instead the person raising concerns was accused of transphobia and herself investigated. Dr Redvers sat down with me for her only newspaper interview about her treatment in a scandal which, Cass now says, “dwarfs” that of the Tavistock’s GIDS. Me for the Sunday Times… thetimes.com/article/cfde7b4…

NHS England accepted that Dr Sam Hall had "no formal training in gender-identity medicine" but argued that he'd "acquired expertise informally through self-study, experience" and "from talking with other gender specialists." This is what NHSE "accepts" for the treatment of vulnerable children. These children weren't being treated for colds. They were being given life-changing blockers and hormones for feelings that hadn't been explored. Cass is right. This goes much deeper than just one clinic. Full independent inquiry is needed now. Excellent reporting as always from @hannahsbee. thetimes.com/article/cfde7b4…

I was reading this article and thinking "this is really good, does an amazing job of explaining a complex situation without being confusing" - and then saw the byline and realised why. Hannah is a national treasure.

There seems to be some confusion amongst some people, so I will explain it as clearly as I can: Australia’s sex discrimination act was created for women, on the basis of our sex. When it was enacted in 1984 (ominous year, in hindsight) employment was a big part of it. There was a part of the act, section 7D, that allowed “special measures” where things exclusively for women weren’t even classed as discrimination, basically when it was being a woman is what actually mattered in the situation. Specific employment/opportunity provisions and… woman-only spaces fell/fall into this category. In 2013, the Gillard amendments introduced “gender identity” while taking the definitions of woman & man out of the act. Sex was never defined, but in a normal world it didn’t have to be. It could only have meant one thing (a mistake, again in hindsight). By the time the trans absurdity hit fever pitch, Australian institutions were captured. This included those meant to be the custodians of the SDA. Suddenly, all they cared about was “gender identity” aka transgender ideology. When the Tickle v Giggle case came along, it started with an Australian Human Rights Commission complaint. To settle it, aka not have it advance to federal court, I was expected to just agree with transgender ideology. I don’t. I wish I could say I completely understood the magnitude at the time, but it’s almost impossible to. You think you do, but you don’t really until it hits you like a bus. But what I did know, instinctively, was that if I folded, I couldn’t live with it, nor would it help because all it signaled was that “we” would just accept it if threatened. I found myself in a position to challenge the absurdity, and I did, because I knew not doing it would have been worse no matter what. Obviously, everyone knows now, the courts ruled against me in every way they could. From what a woman is, to 7D, to damages. I lost - and have lost - everything. But what does it mean to everyone else in reality? It means the sex discrimination commissioner told the court that the ordinary meaning of woman includes men who claim to be women, and the court accepted that. Men who claim to be women are women in Australia, via the only legislation they have to validate it. It means that for every aspect of the SDA, per the SDC’s demand, woman includes men who claim to be women. From employment to women only spaces to pregnancy protections, because of section 7D. Did we warn about this in our court submissions and arguments? Yes. That was actually our entire case. You can read it. It’s all publicly available. The high court said that we would have no possibility of success. We were arguing that women is adult human female and this matters in, tada, section 7D. That was it. The high court said “hell no way”. The high court is captured too. As it stands, due to legal precedent, a special measure for women based on sex does not provide a defense to gender identity discrimination. That means that all special measures for women fall to gender identity, which will only be used by men who claim to be women, and includes - tada - employment, and women only spaces. It means that men who claim to be women have more rights than actual women, while simultaneously taking away our rights. I don’t know how many more times I could say the “Tickle v Giggle” case is about more than “just” one app, I’ve been saying it for almost 5 years, but I will continue to do it until everyone understands. They wiped women’s rights off the map. It’s a f—ing mess. It doesn’t work. It’s incoherent. It’s ideological. It writes women out of law. It’s corruption. It’s totalitarian. It’s bullsh-t. It’s the test of any government: are you ok with legislating a lie?

Free Telegraph article by @hannahsbee on this terrible mess (Redvers, Hall, mistreated children)
I am delighted, absolutely delighted, that Sarah Redver's case has been heard so well in court, and I look forward to the judgement. I was carefully following it while I was preparing with Anna Loutfi for my hearing in the Employment Appeals Tribunal. Our cases are very similar in that both revolve around formal safeguarding concerns being raised and then counter transphobia accusations being raised against us both. The big difference is that Sarah had a much better opportunity to demonstrate her case than I did mine. By contrast, I had no legal representation the first time round. This was not intentional and not due to lack of effort. In total I went to 9 different legal representatives covering lawyers and barristers at a total cost of nearly £10k, and they all told me either I had no case, or it was too complicated, or it was safeguarding and not employment, or what ever else they could think of. In addition, my union and insurance company both refused to back me. The main advice I got was that the Employment Tribunal representation costs could be up to £100k. I was running out of time and money, so I had to take the chance of representing myself. I got hammered the first day in court when the judge changed the basis of the pleadings, and so undermined everything else. Before the case, various people asked if I had a crowd funder and I told them I didn't want to start one with such negative assessments from legal professionals as that would be unethical. Partly to put them at rest, I opened a crowd funder but gave no description or request, other than to confirm my name and case. I didn't really expect to receive anything, especially with the economic shock from Russia's invassion of Ukraine at the time. I chose a £50k target simply because it was half of £100k. After I lost my case, I was deeply depressed and had mentally shut down, then £13k was kindly donated to my crowd funder. Not only did these kind donations get me going for the following appeals, but they broke me out of the deep depression I'd fallen into. Sarah Redver has spoken of the profound impact her case has had on her - I can empathise- we share this same brutal experience. We now both await our judgements, and between the two it's almost impossible to see how the transgender ideologues can continue grooming children into their cult if we are both successful. thetimes.com/article/cfde7b4…

Interesting article. At UCL, we still don't have access to Pangram to check student work, which seems crazy. 'I recently reviewed 1,191 doctoral dissertations from 2025 in the fields of educational leadership and administration. My research suggests that 35 percent of those dissertations were made up of more than a negligible amount — i.e., greater than 10 percent — of AI-generated text. Ten percent were more than 50 percent AI-generated... Before you protest — “AI-detectors are unreliable”; “they’re potentially biased against nonnative speakers”; “they can be tricked” — let me tell you that I used Pangram. It is not for nothing that Pangram has become the tool of choice for much of the internet, as a slew of peer-reviewed research has found that it achieves “near-zero” false-negative and false-positive rates, even against “adversarial” and “humanizing” AI software. I have used Pangram over the last year in my undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral courses and have found it (with additional safeguards and protocols) to be near-perfect in detecting students’ inappropriate use of AI in their writing. My ongoing study used 100 dissertations published before 2020 as a control; all came out as “100 percent Human” in Pangram.'

People of colour are at risk of sexual assault by elderly white Irish people, especially females, under the guise of “grandparents”. Everyone must be on the alert: it’s all about CONSENT. So says a campaign video (now suspended). Do Irish women get to say no to ex-convict Barbie Kardashian, and his violent rape fantasies, in intimate single sex spaces like hospital wards, toilets and changing rooms? No, of course not. That sort of consent is exclusionary, genocidal.
🇮🇪 The Irish state has published an advert discouraging grandparents from hugging their grandchildren, as part of a campaign designed to promote "consent".
