The Cass Review is being used to restrict trans healthcare worldwide. But look closely and you'll find it's not evidence-based medicine — it's motivated reasoning in a lab coat.

Here are the 11 most damning problems. 🧵

The reviews used to justify this excluded nearly 97% of all studies from inclusion in their analysis. This is an absolutely obscene hatchet job by the NHS specifically created to eliminate access to hormones for trans youth.

⚠️ PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING: We believe NHS England and DHSC policy on transgender healthcare shows signs of ideological capture by the gender critical movement. Current decisions risk serious harm to trans people and undermine evidence-based care.

Following an escalating moral panic and extremist rhetoric against trans people & non-binary people the Labour government looks set to introduce its own version of Section 28, in the form of “keeping children safe in education” in England:

NHS closed Tavistock over care complaints – there were only eight An eye-opening FOI report has revealed that just eight people complained about the Tavistock gender clinic's care provision in 10 years.

In a functional country, this would be a scandal. A service suffering only from chronic underfunding was ripped apart because the media created a myth of 1000s of complaints of malpractice. The truth - as in my family’s experience - was very different.

A purple rectangle graphic with white text that says "When any pupil goes to school they should be able to do so safely, have appropriate toilet and changing facilities they can use, and be listened to and have their identity respected. This has become much harder for trans pupils because of two court cases that happened last year, and subsequent changes made to Scottish Government guidance on including trans pupils in school."

When the Scottish Government embedded the UNCRC into Scottish law, it made a commitment to children across Scotland.

When it comes to trans children, that promise has fallen short.

URGENT:

Very important action by @goodlawproject.bsky.social

Transphobes are trying to infiltrate the Council of Europe to roll back LGBTQ+ human rights by writing en masse to MPs on the CoE.

Please use this tool to write to those MPs to counter this.

Do it now. We have a week.

Please share.

Despite reposting the call to arms below, I didn’t act on it until a few minutes ago.

Why? Because it felt too hard and overwhelming.

It was SO EASY.

Add your name to the letter now. If you choose not to write anything individual it will take less than a minute ❤️

We got a 'response' from the BBC, who couldn't be bothered to write more than 3 small paragraphs (153 words) to our letter, and avoided all the points raised.

This is why your help is important.

We sent a formal complaint to the BBC over its repeated misgendering of trans people and use of terms like “biological male”. We’ve also written to the Women and Equalities Committee, DCMS, and the Minister for Women and Equalities. Now we need community action.

A blue graphic titled "Canute's Folly: A sonnet for my transfeminine sisters." In the centre is an image with the text "Resisting Transphobia in Edinburgh: Supreme Injustice! Community Response to Supreme Court Ruling." A preview below reads: "Forbid the ocean from her rightful name, Your fingers tracing curses in the foam..." Below in smaller text: "Read for free on rtie.org ✦ Link in bio." The graphic below is decorated with pearls, an anchor, blue coral, a blue shell, and a whale's tail.

I had the privilege of contributing a poem to @rtie.org's Supreme Injustice zine. I wrote a sonnet inspired by the indelible beauty of my transfeminine sisters/siblings, because god, do they deserve a love poem.
