She is being damned for using the term "transsexual".
This is the *correct* legal terminology used in the Equality Act 2010. /2

She is also accused of "misgendering" by using the word men. Again the correct legal term for people who share the protected characteristic of the male sex as used in the Equality Act. In law transwoman are considered 'men'. It's also a legitimate concern voiced by many woman /3
Wild accusations of 'unlawful harassment' thrown about by Ben Hunte. Intended to cause damage and not inform readers
No individual transwomen was being referred to as a 'man'. No harassment. Simply a minister discussing issues in her private office 3 years ago /4

The BBC said Ben Hunte's BBC article "did not meet BBC standards ... on reporting suicide".
It was a one-sided piece with "expert" quotes from disgraced GP Helen Webberly and Adrian Harrop.
Ben Hunte produces propaganda not news /7

Once again, another predictable attempt to silence and smear women talking about legitimate concerns about the consequences of gender ideology.
These smear tactics do nothing but hinder a path to resolution. That damages us all, including trans people. /8
