I have just read this article

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/feb/14/womens-institute-groups-close-after-transgender-ban

If there are “1000s of groups” and 12 are considering closing or a closing after the Supreme Court ruling, the that is 1% at the very most. Meaning that 99% are dealing with it fine.

AIBU that this terrible and inaccurate reporting to call it carnage?
