📢‼️After some careful reviewing and collation of information we now feel we can respond to the Cass Review Please see our response below 🧵

So the Cass Review claims that "for many centuries transgender people have been predominantly trans females" (Page 114). As a someone studyiung a PhD in Transgender Archaeology I'd just like to say this is serious bullshit. No wonder she doesn't include a citation for this!

Academic colleagues who work in areas concerned with research methodologies have a duty to speak up here. The Cass Review's methods are horrendously flawed. Yet it is being passed off as an 'independent report' that should be taken seriously. Integrity matters.

It is perfectly legitimate (and responsible) for clinicians and researchers to refuse to collaborate with research which they feel is ethically and methodologically flawed. It’s called research integrity! #CassReview

A Judicial Review needs to happen NOW. The credibility of the Cass Report has disintegrated in just 48 hrs. ⭐️Trans banned from all discussions about own health care. ⭐️Pro-trans evidence binned ⭐️Entire trans community rejects it ⭐️Condemned internationally .

I am going to try and post more on here! Had an incredible time at Aberystwyth Pride! The weather was amazing 💜💜💜

I'm writing a problem analysis statement for the Dept Health & Social Care on the need for LGBTQ+ data reporting in adult social care. If you have any thoughts please do visit the link, it will make sure I don't miss anything. More info on the padlet. lnkd.in/egz5tfgG

Currently having a social media break. It's often hard to admit you're struggling, however, it is so important to talk about Mental Health. I'm always open to admitting my struggles but time out is equally as important.

Can't wait
