Labour's manifesto promised to "remove indignities for trans people who deserve recognition & acceptance".
That entails ending the Tories' ban on puberty blockers.
Young people – cis & trans – must have access to healthcare they need. I'll always stand with the trans community.
@RestIsPolitics@IanDunt What an inspiring woman and parent. I have a trans child and agree wholeheartedly with what she says - as parents we cannot understand it all - and that’s why the topic needs to be cooled and a proper health and emotional service invested in. We are letting down a lot of people.
@LBC@mrjamesob parent of trans 17yo - we’ve been waiting 4 yrs for ANYTHING. Suggesting parents want a hasty medical intervention is ridiculous, we just want support for our children. And there is nothing other than toxicity and politics…
@LBC this woman’s attitude is making me livid. How does government have any right to intervene with choices made by children, parents or schools that supports mental health and affects no one wise negatively?
