The source is tabloid yellow journalism - no '1,000 families' EVER materialized. The number was a complete lie, you can't google it and find any source actually corroborating a number or names that isn't quoting anonymous 'lawyers'. You only find that The Times article that originated it, and various rightwing and Christian evangelist op-eds repeating it. And the Tavistock clinic was set to be replaced with multiple new gender clinics to handle higher capacity.

Transphobes tell us over and over that detransitioning is all over the place, there's hundreds of thousands or millions of detransitioners - and yet they only know about the one or two political operatives circulating on right-wing media. And they can't point to any peer-reviewed study showing detransition due to not actually being transgender (as opposed to detransition because of poverty or discrimination) is more common than being struck by lighting.

Even Joe Rogan had to correct pedophilia-activist Matt Walsh that he had inflated the number of teens on puberty blockers by a hundred times what it actually is. They don't care about facts.

Cisgender teens are allowed breast reduction or removal without the mental healthcare provider authorization that transgender teens are often required to provide.

Puberty blockers are different from hormones, they specifically replace hormones to allow a transgender teen to wait until adulthood to consent to a feminizing or masculinizing puberty of their choice.

This suit is a misleading far-right political operation and not based on any objective judgment of the standards of care for trans teens.

UK is not gonna make it no matter what happens. English media and parties have spent a decade viciously antagonizing Scotland and Northern Ireland and you have new generations of young people who don't see any benefit to continuing the union no matter who is in charge of Westminster. Starmer has proven devolution is just a lie, he has no intention of maintaining good faith in the union if Labour wins the next general election, he'll just continue exporting transphobia and other Tory-led culture wars into Scotland and NI because he thinks he'll get votes from some Tories for doing so.

>Like, can't we draw a line at Antisemitism?

We haven't 'drawn a line' for anything else. We've spent the last decade seeing Republican politicians call for trans people to be assaulted, imprisoned or executed, and get cheers instead of consequences. Among no shortage of other minority groups also being blamed for all of society's problems.
