As part of the new approach, medics have been reminded that for “most” young people, the feeling of being in the wrong body is just a “phase” and does not persist into adulthood.

Officials have now set out their plan for how children will be able to access the service, which has been sent to experts for their input. The plans have been seen by The Telegraph.

The plans state: “Children under seven years of age may not be expected to have sufficiently developed their intellectual understanding of, and comprehension of, sex and gender to be able to understand the reasons for, and potential consequences of, a referral to a specialist gender incongruence service.”

I’m with Stephanie:

Stephanie Davies-Arai, founder of Transgender Trend, said there were still questions about the age at which the children would be allowed onto the trial. She said the “devil is in the detail”.

It seems like no one in the government is really trying to stop any of this. Labour gets a lot of criticism on here, but in my humble American opinion, Conservatives deserve a good bit of criticism, as well.
