The Sunday Telegraph love their anti-trans content and this week they’ve produced four pieces from Ewan Somerville, David Spencer, Edward Malnick and, of course, Hayley Dixon as usual.
First up on the Sunday Telegraph‘s page of trans hate, we have books designed to make trans kids feel less isolated being a massive danger
![Trans library books raise huge safeguarding red flags, say parents The Sunday Telegraph16 Oct 2022By Ewan Somerville ‘The book gives vulnerable children the message that taking puberty blockers is a part of growing up’ PARENTS have reacted with fury to a taxpayer-funded national library scheme for teenagers as young as 13 that promotes puberty blockers and transgender surgery. A booklist has been produced by the Reading Agency, a charity, for public libraries, GPs and school nurses in the UK to address an estimated one in eight young people in every classroom with a diagnosable mental health condition. But the new wellbeing collection of 27 books, targeted at those aged 13 to 19, has provoked a backlash over a section on sexuality and gender identity. Families have written complaint letters claiming the section “promotes self harm” and has “safeguarding red flags”. One of two gender books is titled Welcome to St Hell: My Trans Teen Misadventure, by Lewis Hancox, a memoir of a girl transitioning to a boy, narrated through illustrations. One full-page diagram annotates her body, describing her breasts as “fatty lumps that need to be gone”, her “hips from hell” and “my imaginary willy”. Other sections of the book narrate a conversation between two teenagers about how puberty blockers “basically press pause on puberty”, to which the other responds: “Sign me up!” The cartoon mentions Keira Bell, who sued the NHS Tavistock gender clinic after regretting taking the drugs, to which the fictional teenager asks, “But you didn’t regret it right?”, and the other responds, “Best thing I ever did.” Another teenage character describes a puberty blocker prescription as having “got the key”, while other scenes feature boasts about life on testosterone medication, stopping periods and breast binding using a sports bra. The project is backed by Arts Council England funding, totalling £1.5million last year, and similar schemes by the Reading Agency received £3.5 million from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport last year. The Reading Agency said the books were selected by experts including the NHS, GPs, psychiatrists, library staff and Government, and “received many endorsements and positive support” at launch events last week. Another book, titled Queer Up, contains tips for teenagers on issues such as transgender “top and bottom surgery” and “welcomes” children to the queer “family”, with references to asexual identities and “non-binary animals”. This book also recommends Mermaids in its list of resources, a youth trans charity that is being investigated by the Charity Commission. The Family Education Trust alleges that the books have “massive safeguarding red flags” by grouping 13-year-olds with those above the age of consent. It said: “The Trans Teen Misadventure book [gives] vulnerable children the message that taking puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones is a normal part of growing [up].”](https://transwrites.world/static/uploads/2/2022/10/221016-sunday-telegraph-trans-books.png)

Next, we have Hayley Dixon warning that doctors are ‘promoting transgender surgery with TikTok videos’

The Sunday Telegraph16 Oct 2022By Hayley Dixon SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT
Again, just more cis people complaining and blowing things out of all proportion.
Take this paragraph, for instance – “In one video, they show their surgery dates while a backing soundtrack plays: “I wish that I could be like the cool kids”. The clinic said last night these are dates for all surgeries, not just trans patients.”
If you want to know where this story has come from, the clue is in the paragraph that follows. “The clips were found in an analysis by the LGB Alliance into the influence ‘Interacting with a few gay-friendly videos quickly sends people into the rabbit hole of “queer TikTok”’”
Malnick’s article is headlined “UN Blocks Stonewall move on rights group.

It begins, “The United Nations has rejected an attempt led by Stonewall to downgrade Britain’s equality watchdog to the status of equivalent bodies in Azerbaijan and Bahrain.
“The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) will retain its “A” status despite allegations that it is failing to sufficiently protect the rights of transgender people.”
You don’t need me to go into why the EHRC is so problematic for trans people, especially when they are standing with anti-trans groups in Scotland in opposition to Gender Recognition Reform.
All three of these articles were on one Sunday Telegraph page.

Finally, we come to David Spencer’s piece which tells us all that ‘Public faith in the woke police is evaporating’.

Sunday Telegraph 16 Oct 2022
Mr Spencer, here, doesn’t believe the police should be “indulging in Twitter spats or handing out trans T-shirts until every single wanted criminal is in prison.”
You’ll no doubt be delighted to know that Spencer “is head of crime and policing at Policy Exchange and a former detective chief inspector.”
I want to know where I can get my free trans tshirt.
You can see what nonsense was going on in the Mail on Sunday this weekend here.
