Also, note that she had to go back 4yrs to find this single case that started in Jan 20 - and ignored the fact Bell lost her case as the original judgment was comprehensively overturned on appeal. So Badenoch quotes an old case that failed in Court - and that's her best evidence!

Probably seems worth mentioning that Keira Bell, the example Kemi Badenoch gives of a “rush” for youth transition, was 16 when prescribed puberty blockers. She was 20 when she had her mastectomy. A four year wait is not a “rush”, and a 20 year old is an adult.

100%. Add to that the fact rugby has absolutely no concern about 230lbs cis women players competing with 110lbs cis women. If safety is genuinely a real issue, how could banning a 130lbs trans women (like my daughter) be acceptable when cis women 100lbs heavier are believed safe?

No injuries, 4 trans women banned out of approx 38k cis rugby players 1 trans girl banned from rugby, no actual assessments, NGBs won't state what science they are using as non actually prove an advantage. Sports banning without trans participants. Myself in a wheelchair

@IndiaWilloughby @jk_rowling @SundayTimesSco 100% this - remember 50yrs ago when there were calls for ‘safeguarding’ exclusion because gay people were ‘allowed’ to use the same changing rooms and other examples as shown! In my opinion this hateful transphobic call from JK Rowling is just as vile as any recycled homophobia

"There's actually a lot of evidence, just not in the form of randomized clinical trials. It's like saying for a pregnant woman, since we lack randomized clinical trials for care of people in pregnancy, we're not going to provide care- completely unethical"

If in doubt, ask Badenoch to give ANY credible evidence that Self ID' is being exploited to allow male predators 'to do things'! - exactly what things? There are of course predatory cis men 'doing (bad) things' but ask for evidence of how many pretend to be trans 'to do things'

@misterdalesmith @pattycakes_xx @KemiBadenoch That's really caring of you (I never said you were scared of trans people)- so can I ask - is it OK for someone to call black people by the 'n' word, or Jews the 'y' word? How about just calling a large person fat? Or do we morally want speech be used to avoid insulting people?

And whist we are talking of evidence- Badenoch promised that the evidence she claimed of 'near epidemic levels' of gay kids being forced to be trans, would be contained within the Cass Report. Did anyone find this evidence? Because we still haven't seen it. Just more bogus claims

I've also somehow convinced Dr's to prescribe hormones treatment! Treatment that, if she wasn't genuinely trans and suffering from Gender Dysphoria, would now be giving her Dysphoria if she were in fact cis (note - it hasn't. Her Dysphoria has gone and she's 100% happier!) 2/6

This is precisely why it’s vital Trans Conversion Therapy be banned - holding Gender Critical (ie refusal to accept the reality of being trans, or transphobia) can be found in any work place and why it’s dangerous when held by anyone with any influence over trans rights or lives

There's a min of 262k trans in the UK, ALL were trans kids. So EVERY one of their parents FORCED them to be trans against their wishes! How could this be remotely logical? It's no different to claiming that EVERY gay person was FORCED to be gay by their parents! Just madness! 3/6

@PeterTatchell Sorry Peter but it's not acceptable to treat trans people that way. Telling a trans person they use a separate room or ward is labelling them all as dangerous sexual predators. Would a similar request from racist insisting black people removed from 'white' wards be acceptable? 1/
