Rushed through last minute before parliament is dissolved using emergency powers.
Should’ve been debated in the commons at least.

Puberty blockers sure are funny old things, somehow they’re safe to prescribe to cis kids, but when prescribed to trans kids they suddenly become dangerous. I’m sure this is a purely evidence based policy. It must be. Wes Streeting has already endorsed it and, as people on here keep saying, Labour are the trans-friendly™ option. They wouldn’t just throw trans kids under the bus.

Transkids get get these drugs just as easily as ciskids.
