IW is either totally fucking tonto or an unforgivable fucking ghoul. As I understand it, the '50 suicides of trans kids' is an outright lie, but he's happy to keep telling parents their kids will die if not given harmful, sterilising meds. All in the service of him being able to bully women into pretending he's not a man.

Thank goodness. Hopefully this will lead to "new" information requiring its cancellation.

TheywontletmehavethenameIwant · 20/02/2026 22:14

So glad to hear this, I heard it from another source and thought it was 'mis-information', so I didn't get my hopes up, but it's true, it's true. 😁

Thanks for the link to everything, I'm off to read them again and thanks to everyone who helped make this happen, this is a good day, a very good day.

Well I wrote to my MP about this last year, and he wrote back with a very long email to say he supported the trial.
Will Forster, Lib Dem MP for Woking if anyone is interested.

Shout out to Ellie Chowns, Green Party for doing the same 😡

Great news!

LizzieSiddal · 20/02/2026 22:41

Thank god they’ve seen sense.

TempestTost · 20/02/2026 23:01

I think that if they carry on investigating this now, and realise it doesn't meet ethical standards, it could be a very good thing, big picture, internationally.

My Australian state of Queensland has paused puberty blockers, pending the outcome of this trial. If this trial doesn’t proceed, the children in my state will be safe.

That's quite remarkable. Other countries waiting to see what happens with the British guinea piglets.

TempestTost · 20/02/2026 23:58

I am sure here in Canada they will bury their heads in the sand, but every new study that shows how little backing there is for all of these "therapies' is good. At some point they will be forced to look, probably because of the health disasters that start to become public, and then all of those damning reports will be there.

Surely this is a get out of jail free card for Starmer and Streeting. They can crack on with their favourite policy option of kicking the can down the road.

Not entirely true. No new patients receiving puberty blockers in the public system. Private system is still there as an option. Those is the public system already being prescribed puberty blockers are still on them if they want to be. The Queensland government is doing their own review to make a decision about puberty blockers.

If Crisafulli really wanted to put his money where his big mouth is then he’d get Dr Jillian Spencer reinstated to Queensland Health.

Mollyollydolly · 21/02/2026 01:39

There's no new information, HOW did it get so far?
Hopefully now it will be kicked into the long grass for good.
It's all politics.

Yes, Dr Spencer needs to come back.

I’m still reeling from the revelations from the report into Cairns Sexual Health. This is my hometown. Poor kids. Apparently running an unapproved clinic since 2008.

In NI our Sein Fein First Minister is having a tantrum because our Health Minister paused puberty blockers at the beginning of the week.

Apparently the Sein Fein leader Mary Lou has a trans brother.

If 50 children in the UK had deliberately ended their lives for any reason, you can be sure it would be headline news and coroners and pathologists would be launching a huge enquiry. Every unexpected death of a child results in a post mortem and inquest. These made up claims need to be called out. Always.

As I understand it, the '50 suicides of trans kids' is an outright lie,

Thank goodness so many qualified and certified transvestigators are here to protect their pearls from becoming whittled down to nothing from all of the clutching. All of these postings consistently vilify the clinicians, but NEVER the parents who have to give their legal permission if they're under age 16. On top of that, the National Child Mortality Database (surprise surprise), actually noted that out of 647 suicides between April 2019 and March 2025, 107 identified as LGBTQIA+, 46 of whom identified as trans. But of course these numbers can't be correct, since they are based on scientific data parameters.

Let's just go back to just hanging the witches like they did centuries ago, since that was fear mongering without science. Just like abortions being illegal until 1968 - how many women lost their lives because science wasn't recognized as being a legitimate source. In 2023, almost 278,000 were performed, not only saving women's lives but also helping their lives better about not being ready to have an unwanted child. Please just stop going to the doctors and look for the shamans to help promote pseudo science facts. RFK, Jr. would be happy to come to England and straighten out the medical establishment to give you what you want to hear, that people who have no medical background should be in charge of everyone's health (which he doesn't have either). A win-win.

Oh, the irony, American scolder.

What a load of old cobblers.

WeMeetInFairIthilien · 21/02/2026 07:27

I woke this morning, and came straight to check up that this hadn't been some calvados induced dream.

But no! The scolders have arrived, it must be real.

TheywontletmehavethenameIwant · 21/02/2026 07:29

....647 suicides between April 2019 and March 2025, 107 identified as LGBTQIA+,

I find this point distasteful, the other 540 tragic deaths are to be ignored are they, they don't count because they don't fit into your narrative.

Shedmistress · 21/02/2026 07:37

I'd put money on this being because James Esses and Keira Bell would evicerate this 'trial' in court and they would rather pause it and find some other way.

Also, the ethical question of 'what are we treating and why is sterilising kids the cure' was never asked, not once.

I always wonder what it is about stopping children's physical and intellectual development so that they end up as pre pubescent adults that these men find so appealing?
Time for a deep dive into their motivations (and hard drives) methinks.
