  • “We have carefully scrutinised Mermaids’ activities through a statutory inquiry and have found mismanagement in a number of areas. Mermaids cooperated with our investigation and has been actively addressing the various concerns raised.

    “Additionally, following the Cass Review, we have required Mermaids to present a more accurate picture on its website as to the risks involved in the use of puberty blockers, and to follow Cass Review findings on the involvement of parents in social transitioning as regards any future provision of chest binders to children.”

    More TERF shit. This inquiry was started because of a hate campaign against trans people and the charity even cooperated to be as transparent as possible. The government is now imposing anti-trans rules on a pro trans charity akin to the teaching of creationism in the science curriculum across the pond.
