I think Wes might be right here but this is going to cause consternation amongst groups who were hoping that Labour might take a more liberal approach to LGBT issues than the tories.

    Reminder, this is only a ban for trans kids, so any comments about this being dangerous for the kids is mute. If that was the concern they would ban prescribing them to cis kids as well.

    So much for ‘change’.

      That’s a good point which I hadn’t considered. I suppose there is a value judgement being made that gender dysphoria is a less serious disease than other diseases that require puberty blockers. Not sure that logic holds up, especially given that this is a blanket ban on a certain type of disease. I think I need to think about this issue for longer.
