Reminds me of the Guardian advert with the punk from years ago - but this is real and even clearer. Context is everything.

Yesterday I did my bit to clean up the canal with @uoceanproject and @PaddleboardingL. We picked up so much rubbish, but of course only scratched the surface. Let's all help to keep our waterways clean.
In my article about Cass I mentioned that Dawn Butler had made a false claim in the House. I'm glad she now accepts that what she said was untrue, though without any self-reflection on the consequences of her misinfo. Will others follow and admit error? thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas…

Brilliantly clear and consise reporting from @BBCMoreOrLess on the Cass Review bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0… - Cass "Adults who deliberately spread misinformation about this topic are putting young people at risk and in my view that is unforgivable."
Terrific take down of ideologically driven smear campaigners whose hollow criticisms won't survive scrutiny. "It does take some chutzpah to criticise a fellow academic for sloppy work when you’re unable to accurately count to 200." @nathankw @TheCriticMag thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas…
Dr Pattison (retired) isn't the only duplicate name on the @NetworkGender open letter. They've been told about the issue but not fixed it. It's almost like they don't care about accuracy. I wonder if the people who signed this shoddy and dishonest letter have any shame or regret?

Went to see #TheBalladOfHattieAndJames @KilnTheatre and loved it. A tale spanning decades that's both tiny and epic. Full of love, friendship, tragedy, triumph and music. Highly reccomended.
Attempts to intellectually discredit the Cass Review have completely failed, argues @nathankw thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas…
I don't understand why people say that there's a free speech problem in Airstrip One. I've been speaking up in praise of Big Brother without condemnation, but I can only speak from my own experience. #1984

With all the talk of toxicity in youth gender medicine and claims that Stonewall were always open to debate - please read this superb thread by filmmaker @ollylambert on his experience covering the topic in 2019 x.com/ollylambert/st… - only one side refused to talk.

Glad to see the detailed, comprehensive, scientific Cass Report is getting the mature, level headed, evidence based response you'd expect.
A very important point from the editor of the BMJ. There's serious misinformation and misrepresentation about alleged bias in the Cass Report from people with no understanding of the subject (and spread by people who should know better).

Did @thecassreview - the review of NHS gender identity services for under-18s in England - throw out 98% of the available research? That claim was spreading online before the report was even published. It is “completely incorrect” says @Hilary_Cass A More or Less thread.🧵1/8
@MarcusxGrant @ZackPolanski @amnesty The #CassReport spelling out the inadequacies of the current gender services, and suggesting what can be done to improve them, is extremely well-researched Anyone who misrepresents her recommendations & politicises them, is doing a grave injustice to children’s health &wellbeing

Terrific take down of ideologically driven smear campaigners whose hollow criticisms won't survive scrutiny. "It does take some chutzpah to criticise a fellow academic for sloppy work when you’re unable to accurately count to 200." @nathankw @TheCriticMag thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas…
@nathankw @TheCriticMag I brought the duplicate signatures to their attention 3 days ago - but they have still not been removed. Such academic rigour! x.com/grumpyow/statu…
@NetworkGender Three of your signatories are shown twice, and one three times. Your checking is rather shoddy, don't you think? I would expect more rigour from academics! Still, good to know that you're on the same side as notorious anti-vaxxer Andrew Wakefield. That's reassuring.
A great article that pulls apart the shoddy claims of the activists stirring up smears against the Cass review. "Even Stonewall seems to know the game is up. The few who still insist on putting ideology before evidence only embarrass themselves." thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas…
This is very good. Deserves to be shared widely.
Is the Cass Review a watershed that uses detailed analysis of scientific research to expose a scandal that has potentially harmed 100s of children? Or is it biased, dangerous and "shoddy in the extreme"? I look at the evidence to find out: thecritic.co.uk/correcting-cas… @TheCriticMag
The big take home for me at the end of all this is that there was fault on both sides who engaged in a frankly toxic debate.
I have written about the myths that have become common-place about the Cass Review. Do feel free to bookmark and use as you come across these lies. quackometer.net/blog/2024/04/b…

Thread 1/3 5 years ago much of the children’s book community turned on @RooneyRachel, & her career was destroyed. Why? Because she published a simply, charming, rhyming book about children being happy in the bodies they were born in.
The Cass Review must be a watershed moment for the NHS’s gender identity services. My response for @UKLabour underlining our support for the Cass Review’s evidence-led recommendations and our determination to put children’s health and wellbeing above the political fray 👇🏻
1. According to some, this article provides strong empirical evidence for nonbinary biological sex, so I took a look. tl;dr: ironically, the article reinforces the case for binary biological sex. 🧵 academic.oup.com/icb/article/63…
A little note on the scary new Scottish Hate Crime Act. I see quite a lot of people criticising the Act for not including sex as a protected characteristic. I totally get why they'd say this, and it's bizarre that sex is not on the list. BUT... even getting into that…
@stephenwhittle @nathankw @MForstater What specifically is 'rubbish'? It represents very accurately the reality denial, misuse of unrelated facts and 'misunderstandings' wrt gender I encounter, which appears to be the only way your belief system can argue for the existence of a universal, inherent 'gender identity'
