Labour's Culture of Fear
In a scathing attack, Health Secretary Victoria Atkins accused Labour of spending the last decade "trying to shut women up" in the trans debate. She demanded an apology from Labour MP Wes Streeting for his previous hardline views on gender.
Admission and Apology
Speaking on HOAR's Never Mind The Ballots show, Wes Streeting admitted to being wrong in dismissing people who do not believe all trans women are women. He acknowledged the complexities of the issue and expressed regret for the culture of fear created by Labour.
Controversial Medication and Silence
The landmark Cass Review revealed the overprescription of controversial medication to gender-questioning kids and the silencing of critics due to the toxicity surrounding trans issues. The report also emphasized the need for caution in prescribing puberty blockers.
Labour's Reflection
In light of the review findings, Labour frontbencher Louise Haigh admitted that some within the party had felt unable to express their views on the matter. The party is now facing scrutiny over its handling of the trans debate.
