Did she do any research for this article? If so, she should have discovered that it's not as easy as the Guides just "changing their name". It is all about their charitable aims. Anyway, typical pro trans girl inclusion article from ZW.

Guides will break up for the summer in July I expect and restart sans trans in September.

She's probably spontaneously combusted after men were excluded from women's Olympic sports yesterday.
