"Trans rights: government reported to be dropping gender self-identifying plans"

[wigornian]

Ah, is this possibly something the majority of Mumsnet could support the Government on, have we found that one issue?

Excuse the Fail link -

but for balance too:

This is excellent news! Although it’s going to take me a considerable length of time to get over the idea that I agree with something Boris is doing.

Apparently, the drugs used on children are also not as problem free as they were trying to persuade us either.

You mean, using incredibly experimental drugs and stopping puberty could be dangerous? Who would have guessed?

Seriously, so much of this rests on faulty data and lies and manipulation.

We need some proper statistics which aren't manipulated and don't rely on personal testimonies about suicide attempts and ideation etc.

At the same time, we also need the trans cult to stop telling suggestible children that they WILL be suicidal. We know its contagious FFS. And they will be rallying right now to tell everyone that its time to start those threats again.
