Anyone just watched Storm bumble her way the Cass segment? Was always on the fence about her abilities but this was way out of her depth. Why can't these TV shows have a proper discussion about trans ideology? They just dance around the issue. It's embarrassing.

The woman caller who suffered from anorexia as a teen and who now has osteoporosis was excellent in her points, that affirming her feelings at the time was not in her best interests.

Didn't realise there was a thread for news coverage. Have taken it over there!

News commentary on the Cass Report www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/5046963-news-commentary-on-the-cass-report

Yes, the woman with anorexia as a teen and a mother who sounded at her wits end with her 19 year old wanting to transition. The last caller was a TW who said all kids should be given puberty blockers until they know who they are, Rishi was a big transphobe and the other women callers were terfs. Carole rightly called the TW out whilst Storm fell over herself trying to somehow defend the TW, and how the debate was toxic.

Storm fell over herself trying to somehow defend the TW, and how the debate was toxic.

That's because she only has her show because of Jeremy Vine and he only has this channel 5 show by going full on TWAW are Matthew Wright got kicked out for not apologising that a panel guest said a trans woman was a biological male.

I think she was acting up all innocent, like nobody told me that, could that be true (eg young people having other growing up issues).

However, I thought the trans "expert"(?) was actually not that hard line, and because I was dealing with other things didn't hear everything they said, and wasn't sure if this too was adopted in relation to the Cass Report, but referred to young people having a range of issue etc..

It was only the last commentator who went full on TRA and by and large dialogue had seemed quite unhostile, and for once (chance or change of heart at C5?) GC contributors were allowed a voice.

The male panel member seemed really unthinking, and couldn't help but be concerned for his role as a father!

I replying here as dont have time to trawl through a mixed thread, and in view of the shocking anti GC voices on JV & SH and the shocking booting out of MW quite a turn around.

She does come over as lacking knowledge and out of her depth.

Vine cannot seriously believe a man can become a woman surely! I realise he does his upmost to try to be 'down with the latest trends' whilst going on about hiw old he is. Strange individual
