UK High Court Upholds Tory Government's Emergency Ban on Puberty Blockers for Trans Youth
Jul 29, 2024, 10:26 AM
The UK High Court has ruled that the emergency ban on puberty blockers for transgender youth, introduced by the Conservative government, is lawful.

Critics of the ban argue that it denies necessary medical treatment to transgender youth.
