People talk a lot about social transitioning but it is a very contested ideology and is not a neutral act. In fact, it can have formative effects on a child's future development.
The govt is taking this issue very seriously and will address it in the forthcoming school guidance.

The worst advice I was ever given at school was to ‘man up boy, and get on with it’!
I was born Intersex (ambiguous biology) - now i’m mum of a gorgeous daughter who I adopted and run the countries leading Intersex human rights NGO.

Well not exactly! Thats wrong. Fact - in life we have many chromosomal differences which proves Xx & xy are not limited binary models e.g. xo or xxy… what Is fact is that all of life is on a variable spectrum. Love respect kindness & equality are key!

Listen! to Tory contradictions
Self-ID and social transition add up to a very dangerous ideology that can have terrible effects on young LGB children, who are being put on a medical pathway to irreversible physical changes.
We are not going to run away from this issue. We will sort it.
@intersexaus
Exactly! Most non-binary people are not intersex, and most intersex people do not have a non-binary gender. Non-binary people’s day is about acknowledging and celebrating people with a non- binary gender identity. Intersex Day is a the day for Intersex folk. 💜💛💜💛

A swing of 29% puts the Somerton and Frome result amongst the best ever by-election swings in British political history.
The people of Somerton and Frome have spoken for the rest of the country who are fed up with Rishi Sunak’s out-of-touch Conservative government.

Bigotry is appalling. A vile trait, as is discrimination against a woman who like all women -,grow, live and function on a human spectrum.
#respectcaster
A local peaceful action raising voices of peace seekers - to highlight the need to stop innocent deaths & pain in Gaza (& in Israel too). Hamas must be stopped, hostages released & innocent lives saved. A bi lateral ceasefire is needed as a step towards peace & humanitarian care
We must respect & value with honesty and integrity and care for all of our people all sectors of our society by valuing what matters & peoples needs & futures - genuine politicians would do that a real political party would insist on that.
