PODCAST – Losing Our MindEds.

On this bumper episode of What the Trans?! Ashleigh, Flint and Alyx go over:

  • The court case around last year’s hate crime in Harrow, where a young trans woman was attacked outside a roller diisco.
  • More criticism of the Cass review, this time from the New England Journal of Medicine.
  • Flint talks about a noise demo in support of trans prisoner Zoe Watts.
  • A triple-tastic Loser’s Corner.
  • Alyx’s interview with a cis ally within the NHS, shining a spotlight onto new ‘MindEd’ guidance  and its many “gender critical” problems.
