This incredible man did my surgery 17 years ago in a world that was very different to the one we live in today. Not a day goes past where I don't give thanks to him for performing the final step of a journey I started nearly a decade before with the Tavistock GIDS.

THIS is what ‘institutional capture’ looks like! THIS is what ‘systemic transphobia’ looks like! It’s NOT a ‘conspiracy theory’ or ‘hyperbole’ it’s 💯 real, and also happening in politics, healthcare, and education sectors! Who will the powerful bigots go after next? 😖

Chilling, from one of the best known KC’s in the UK. It’s an Establishment stitch-up. Trans people are now back where Gay people were in the 1970s. I fear the imminent UK Supreme Court verdict on our protection under the EA.

Another quote from one of the mum’s who travelled for a secret meeting with @wesstreeting a few weeks ago to ask him to rethink his ban on puberty blockers: “We managed to get into that meeting with WS via our MP and my daughter basically did an amazing job of being an example…


Do you know who is going to suffer the most from your puberty blocker ban @wesstreeting? Trans kids in poverty, trans kids who have no support from their families, trans kids who are already bullied, ostracised or unable to be themselves. The kids who Labour are meant to protect.

It’s important trans young people know that there is an entire vast community of healthcare staff and academics out there who will continue to fight for you, and challenge the manipulation of evidence that is stripping you of your rights (And we wont require a peerage to do it)


My daughter is happy! BECAUSE of gender affirming healthcare. Without it she might be dead.

"I know it won't feel like it based on the decisions I'm taking today, but I really do care about this", Health Secretary Wes Streeting says as his department announces that puberty blockers will be banned indefinitely.



I’ll never vote Labour again. You don’t care.

Streeting delivers a message to trans young people - 'I know it won't feel like it based on the decisions I'm taking today, but I really do care about this' The health secretary announced he's putting an 'indefinite' ban on puberty blockers for under-18s

genuinely don’t understand how banning puberty blockers but only for trans kids isn’t discrimination on the basis of a protected characteristic. it isn’t just the same medication, it’s the same medication for the same purpose: delaying puberty for better outcomes for a patient


Shame on you #WesStreeting

BREAKING - LONG TWEET: A few weeks ago, a group of mums and dads were given a secret meeting with Wes Streeting. Very hush-hush. They’d written to ask if they could bring their trans kids to speak directly to the Health Minister, so he could hear first hand what banning puberty…

Because I am getting this question dozens of times in my DMs from trans people/parents... If you're trying to move for safety: Countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France. States: Any blue state on my risk assessment map, which I'll update post-election.
