Blaming a ‘media campaign’ for ‘transphobic rhetoric’ is absurd. The media were silent until it became clear that thousands of individuals were protesting against the removal of their most fundamental human right - to speak.

While of course I am grateful that journalists are now speaking up, let us never forget how - with some honourable exceptions - journalists were every bit as supine and captured as every other organisation.
And it took grassroots organisations to campaign and to resist and to demand that we have open and public discussion about very necessary issues - the erasure of the female sex and the harm done to children by medical transition.
To claim that these thousands of angry people are simply ‘puppets’ of a non existent ‘media campaign’ is wrong and is dishonest. You would have think some lessons would have been learned by now about dishonest narratives. But so be it.
