Screenshot The text message Emily* received from her GP practice was life-changing. Emily, who is transgender, was first prescribed hormone replacement therapy (HRT) two years ago. It had enabled her life to feel “ordinary”. Suddenly her prescription had been stopped.

While the anti-trans project will still probably largely succeed, it is one area in which they overplayed with some potentially risky (to them) consequences. [...]
Article on elite takeover by @mayaofspring, crosspost One thing we trans people notice in the UK as we look around is that to a large extent we’ve lost a large chunk of people in positions of power, also known as the “elites”.
