style=”font-size: 11pt”>However, the BMA argues that this ban is “discriminatory” against transgender children. It has vowed to lobby ministers and NHS leaders to “oppose the implementation of the recommendations of the Cass review”.
The only "transgender children" are those poor wretches who've been fooled into thinking that they've been born in the wrong body – a philosophical nonsense – having been sucked into the social contagion of gender ideology. That the doctor's trade union should be supporting this absurdity is absolutely astonishing.
Helen Joyce, director of advocacy at human rights charity Sex Matters, said: “It is scarcely believable that the doctors’ trade union voted in favour of a motion making baseless claims about methodological weaknesses in the Cass review. This wide-ranging work took four years and is far and away the most authoritative synthesis of the evidence concerning the treatment of gender-distressed children and young people.
“It is a sign of how far fringe ideas about gender identity have progressed in medicine that this motion was not dismissed out of hand. The secretary of state for health should stand firm and continue to implement the Cass review in full.
“The many academics and doctors who appreciated Dr Cass’s painstaking work should tell the BMA’s leadership that it does not speak for them. Too many gender-distressed children have already been harmed by clinicians who put ideology before their patients’ health and wellbeing.”
