I'm a non-binary lawyer and the judgment of Taylor v Jaguar Land Rover published this week means a lot for the non-binary community. Here are the main points to take away (a thread) /1
Thatcher: "Children who need to be taught to respect traditional moral values are being taught that they have an inalienable right to be gay. All of those children are being cheated of a sound start in life." theguardian.com/politics/2020/…

There's a long discussion of the journey back from Re Alex in this extraordinary presentation from Justice Steven Strickland, Judge of the Appeal Division and Chair, Law Reform Committee, Family Court of Australia. familycourt.gov.au/wps/wcm/connec…
The Court in Re Jamie held that Stage 1 treatment could be described as therapeutic. Because Stage 1 was reversible, none of the concerns of the High Court of Australia about risk of the wrong decision, or grave consequences, arose.
In a 2004 decision (Re Alex) the Family Court of Australia found that the court's permission was required for puberty blockers. It took until 2013 for that decision to be reversed in Re Jamie.

The internal debate about how they should respond to your publishing an email which is not *on the face of it* privileged, would be interesting. ‘Private and Confidential’ indicates that only the recipient should open it or read it. It doesn’t impose obligations on the recipient.
Debatable how 'private and confidential' such an email actually is.
We believe Government and Pestfix have been misleading us and the Court. You can read why we say that here. rebrand.ly/hearing-ppe

We will not be making any media comment. All announcements will be made here or via the @GoodLawProject website. What we can do to protect trans young people from institutional transphobia we will do.
We will publish advice shortly from a Queen's Counsel on whether loving parents who access care for their gender incongruent children in line with accepted international treatment norms are at risk of having their children taken into care following yesterday's decision.
We will make announcements in relation to those actions as soon as we sensibly can. We are acting with the benefit of advice from the leading public and healthcare lawyers in the United Kingdom.
We have identified two separate legal interventions which we expect to make to secure that the international scientific consensus that exists around the treatment of trans young people is applied in the United Kingdom.
We at @GoodLawProject are taking advice from several leading QCs in relation to yesterday's decision of the High Court which we believe to be legally, scientifically and morally flawed.

Just been asked to go on @LBC tomorrow morning to comment on the Tavistock judicial review result. I said I’m not sure what two cis-gender men talking to each other would achieve. I wonder if LBC will have a trans person or the parent of a trans person on?
So many! Dark Streets of London? Amazing looking back through them now how many are about a particular moment in Anglo-Irish history.
Haha, educate me..?
The Pogues are essentially a Celtic folk band, playing in a tradition where people borrow, update, bend, change and alter all the time. Their best song is their own brilliant take on Eric Bogle’s anti-war classic. The idea their original lyrics are unchangeable is idiotic.
No better advice to give to your daughters than marry a partner who'll support your career.

There is also explicit reference to the fact that "high profile contacts" are managed by a separate team. pic.twitter.com/0hlVSMSm1v
Moreover, there was a special free floating VIP team who don't look to have been accountable to anyone else. goodlawproject.org/news/update-co…
There was a special Opportunites team, a special Quality Assurance team and a special Closing team specially for VIPs. I have all the names of all the civil servants involved.
We also know there was a special Opportunities "Cell" - one of six in total - handling "VIP"s. I know the names of the civil servants running that cell but it would be unfair to publish them.
See our blog post citing leaked documents - widely ignored by the press - which predated the NAO Report by a number of weeks. goodlawproject.org/news/special-p…
And a further reminder that, although the NAO suggests "VIPs" were merely those *introduced* by (mostly) Ministers, this leaked document suggests they were also *processed* on a different track. pic.twitter.com/OkOaXBgdd2
Just a reminder that, although Government is now running furiously from the description of the "VIP" channel, this is the language it used itself. pic.twitter.com/mofti4TU31

Elliot, can you reach out to @JolyonMaugham please, who is fighting for better services for #TransKids crowdjustice.com/case/transgend…
The bare facts, and they are undeniable, are that (at least) two charities, Stonewall and Mermaids, applied to intervene in the judicial review and both were refused permission. And (at least) one trans child also applied to intervene and they, too, were also refused permission.
This is not a formal difference. The Tavistock pathologises gender incongruence and departs from international treatment norms recommended by, e.g. the World Health Organisation (see euro.who.int/en/health-topi…). The Tavistock is not liked or trusted in the trans community.
That the Tavistock, in support of its case, led evidence from those seeking treatment from it is very different to trans children or charities representing their interests being heard, having their own voice, before the Court.
On a personal level I want to re-up this thread (dating to before the hearing) that makes the point that, I believe, it was profoundly wrong for the Court to have refused to hear from a single trans child or organisation representing their interests.

It is also possible to, in effect, self-medicate by buying drugs on the dark web without any triaging. It is inevitable, I would say, that this practice will grow.
The case against the Tavistock, seeking (in effect) to deny trans kids in the UK treatment that is available throughout the rest of the developed world, will hear no submissions from trans kids. They, and charities representing them, asked to be heard but were denied all voice.
And, in practical terms, the length of NHS waiting lists were such that most families of young people sought treatment abroad anyway: sub-optimal for the wealthy and discriminatory against the poor. This practice is now bound to accelerate.
But, of course, the decision only covers prescribing practice in the NHS - which was already an international outlier in terms of its institutional hostility to gender dysphoria.
Nor is it easy for me to anticipate a legislative intervention. This is likely to be the situation in the United Kingdom for a very long time indeed.
