I thought it represented how far we've come but also the enormity of the odds. So many professionals have abandoned protecting children in favour of the demands of predominantly male transactivist demands. Hilary Cass has had to walk a careful path between the batshit demands of that group and the fury of ordinary people at what's been done to children & young people in the name of transactivism. She's managed to do that in a manner that I think has resulted in numerous medics now carefully reversing and pretending that they never signed up or stood by watching, while all this unfolded.
It feels frustrating watching her so carefully pick her way through all the hyperbole but imho, she's playing the long game. She's not taken on the lobbyists personally, instead using data and evidence while carefully repositioning the treatment of these children in children's healthcare being managed by medics, with limited (hopefully no) space for political activists.
What hasn't happened is for NHS management to step up to the plate and start ejecting all the political activists from their DEI roles where they've been able to exercise great damage on evidence based medicine and women's healthcare in particular.
