Dr Kamaruddin was awarded "Best Member" by @rcgp in 2019 for the inspiring story of personal experience #RCGPCouncil Image
East One Surgery, where the doctor is a partner has only recently gone from "needs improvement" to "good"

Patients on Google reviews give 2.1 out of 5

google.com/maps/place/Eas…

Were patients considered in this award? Image
Patients concerns are mainly with the communication of reception staff (rude and unprofessional comes up a lot).

No mention of Dr Kamaruddin's transition.

This patient doesn't seem to have noticed. Image
Still, some people give it 5 stars.... 🤨 ImageImage
I hope patient experience and consent, and not just inspiring personal stories, are put more into focus by @TheBMA @gmcuk @rcgp @NHSuk @theRCN @RCObsGyn in working out policies for protecting trans staff from discrimination, and patients human rights.

The ONS have new guidance out on their gender identity data from the census....

They say that you can take it from them with "high confidence" that around 1 in 200 people have a "gender identity different from their sex at birth" 🤨 Image
But low confidence as to whether these are "trans men" "trans women" "non binary people" or others.

So what is it they are confident about? Image
They divide the apparent trans response into type A (e.g. sex male, says no to gender identity same question says "woman" for gender ID)

Type b 1 (says no to gender identity same question w no further answer)

Type b 12(says no to gender identity same question and then gives matching answer e.g. Male and man)Image

So who is "Mr X" the trans identifying man held in high security male prison after multiple convictions for luring boys into sex acts while pretending to be a teenage girl on social media?
Could it be Nigel "Emma" Davies who posed as a teenager online and shared indecent images?

No. Davies wanted to engage with young girls. Davies was convicted but not jailed.

Could it be former children’s holiday camp manager Cameron Osman who engaged more than 70 teenage boys in sexualised chat pretending to be a 16-year-old girl “Lizzie lemon”.



He is in prison. No idea what pronouns he now uses. independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/…Image

The core of the Melanie Hill v Metropolitan Police case is a Trans Day of Visibility event which took place on 31st March 2023, a week after British women's rights activist Kellie-Jay Keen was violently attacked in New Zealand while trying to speak.
spiked-online.com/2023/03/28/i-t…
In the run-up to the event, she was demonised in the Australian and New Zealand media, who portrayed her as a neo-Nazi. Attempts were made to have her visa revoked and to shut down her Let Women Speak tour.
In Melbourne, a group of far-Right men crashed the Let Women Speak event, clashing with socialist protestors and performing Nazi salutes.

Moira Deeming who attended tweeted her disappointment at the policing of the event

What did the Met Police not want you to see in Melanie Newman's witness statement?

Out of 114 paragraphs they wanted to exclude 37 paragraphs, almost a third of her statement. Image
They said that the paras were of insufficient relevance.

They spent half a day arguing this (after a whole day trying to get one of their witnesses anonymised) .

The tribunal said no.
So what are these paragraphs about?

16/17 Training to "speak out" if we saw anything wrong including offensive and discriminatory messages.

But also "keep your head down". Image

From Trans & Non-binary forum meeting in Dec 2022.

Met police told it should protect GenderGP & Mermaids from burn out.

Suggestion of promise by Community Engagement Officer that "anti-trans groups" will be investigated.

In June the following year they put me under investigation.Image
More in the same meeting about supporting Mermaids following the "binder incident" Image
Another forum meeting in 2023. This time they talk about Harry Miller and about the "Equalities Act"
