BBC Newsnight’s investigation has found that it would take at least 10 years to clear the backlog of trans patients waiting for a first appointment for gender care. We are on the programme this evening speaking about Alice’s experience of the waiting list bbc.co.uk/news/uk-686029…
'I'm not really interested in who comes out on top after the latest round of juvenile verbal sparring in the House of Commons. I am interested in material improvements to the lives of trans people.' itv.com/news/2024-02-0…

last year 500 deaths were attributable to ambulance delays, only 3 of 125 NHS Trusts met waiting-time targets for cancer patient referrals, and NHS workers went on strike over low pay and unmanageable working conditions. but good to see labour focus on the 'priority issues' 👍

posting this complaint just made to local GP practice with mum's permission, in case anybody else is going through it and wants to chat/feel less alone. link to text here: docs.google.com/document/d/1q4…
one of the most frustrating things about all of this to me is the constant 'no on loves children more than their parents' line when we KNOW that children are infinitely more likely to be harmed by their parents than by 'trans ideology'

#TransAwarenessWeek 🧵Trigger warning: suicide I am the proud mum of a trans woman, Alice. Alice came out to her best friend, Lucy when she was fifteen, to her sister, Kate a year later. She didn’t come out to me. Why not? Probably because I’d absorbed media transphobia 1/
in our thousands in our millions 🇵🇸
Rita is raising money for funeral costs for her son, Corei , who tragically died by suicide on 12 October at just 14. Corei was trans and Rita has been the victim of the most vile abuse since posting about his death. If you are able, please give generously

I regularly hear complaints about Stratford magistrates’ crt & a Crown Court (I’m in discussion -DMs open) regarding over the top searching for lawyers-with women raising similar complaints about how they are searched (gender specific). I’ve had the same experience @HMCTSgovuk
Lawyers complain about 'over-zealous and heavy-handed' searches by court security staff: lawgazette.co.uk/practice/solic…
i become such a pleasant person when i am in john lewis
The real problem isn’t scope, it’s that inquests desperately need more funding, and they are in a unique position funded by local authorities. It’s not that inquest scope is too wide. But one can understand why ccs want scope narrowed
This is fascinating from the out going Chief Coroner. The CC’s role in giving guidance on the law, sitting on jrs, + being in charge of admin is I think a difficult one. This restrictive view on inquest scope runs directly contrary to the CoA’s decision last year in Dove
This bears reading: @MoJGovUK published the Annual Report of HHJ Thomas Teague KC, the outgoing Chief Coroner of England and Wales. He warns about the pressure on coroner's inquests to become "a surrogate public inquity" assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/662a32a5…
Genuine question but is it ever going to be warm again (and if so when)
just because I'm alive and in front of you and sharing this does not mean I didn't suffer immeasurably and that my life isn't much worse because of this. I'll never know how things could have been if it hadn't happened but I will always miss her as a person and miss having a mum.
Something that happens to me quite often is people react to hearing that I lost my Mum at 19 by saying things like "OMG I couldn't cope. I need my Mum. I wouldn't have coped without my Mum through X" and I get that it's a fear reaction but like... what?? I needed mine too.
Only went and ran my first marathon! London baby!!🥳 Had the best support crew a gal could ask for, and we’ve raised over £2,000 for @LivHospitals - and managed a 3 hours 37🤩🤩
him absolutely fuming bc he asked if there was anywhere he could run nearby and they said 'no' – so he just ran along the interstate to a soundtrack of furious honking.
he took part in so many marathons. training very important ofc right up to the day before. i remember getting a phone call from a hotel just outside of NYC,
london marathon day... my dad would no doubt be taking part if he were alive and well, as he did many many times. he kept running until he couldn't anymore, even after two craniotomies. one of his proudest moments was breaking 3 hours, 20 years ago.
on the continent playing backgammon in piazzas as god intended!!
This. 👇🏽 I think often about how the HO can truly call it ‘voluntary’ or imply there’s some sort of open consent when, in fact, people are presented with an impossible choice. People can often regret saying yes to voluntary removal and find themselves struggling to get out of it.
Our client found being in detention so severe that he considered leaving his whole family in the UK & signing up for voluntary removal to a country he has not been to since nursery. This 'wearing down' of a person is strategically built into our immigration system.
@MForstater It's just my opinion. You won't find me turning up in the Australian courts claiming to be an expert on transgender issues only to have the presiding judge dismiss me as no more qualified on the subject than someone who just walked in off the street.
@alicemydaughter I’m so sorry you’re dealing with all of this, on top of everything. I’m not sure if it still works but I used this chrome extension last year and it really helped me manage things.
@ContraPoints My life got so much better after installing the chrome extension that can mass block all likes/retweets of a bigoted tweet. Best thing about it is seeing a joyful Pride tweet and instead of hateful responses underneath it’s just…
Our statement on the Cass Review (now with all pictures in one place and a different colour paint)
@alicemydaughter Good grief. The tone that GC trolls adopt to speak with you, a bereaved parent, is utterly astounding. And your patience in dealing with it is extraordinary. I hope you know there are many of us on here who recognise your deep care for your daughter.
