Thinking of Sandie Peggie today with the conduct hearing happening. Does anyone with NHS experience know what the timeline is for similar hearings?

It really boggles the mind NHS Fife has decided this is the best course of action after the last few weeks

It's baffling. Either they know something that isn't in the public, or, more likely, they are incompetent and are doubling down.

Poor Sandie. It must be so horrendously stressful. I can't imagine facing losing my livelihood and can't comprehend it after 30 years service in what must be a vocation.

It people me to tears when 'transphobic hate' is bandied about. So manipulative.
I think a lot of “transphobic hate” is self fuelled by the behaviour of the TRA. It’s very much, “Believe us or we will bully, threaten and abuse you. We will cancel you. No debate. You can’t call yourself a woman, what about the poor trans WOMEN.” The whole thing is based on bullying and fear. There’s nothing to respect about it. Why should we feel positive about trans when they are eroding our single sex rights and gaining compliance by intimidation and threats.
I for one do NOT want to be in the same side of history as these people and I guess every single one of us on this thread feel the same.
Sandie Peggie is a true hero for standing up against this constant manipulation and attempts at through control and submission.

Certainly. All borrowed from my city library, count is now six: four titles are true accounts, two are fiction, but historically very interesting. Some are several years old and as bad as the women's lives were at that time, we know the situation for Afghan (and Iranian) women has now become unbearable.

Non-fiction:
"The Underground Girls of Kabul: The hidden lives of Afghan girls disguised as boys" by Jenny Nordberg
"The Sleeping Buddha: The story of Afghanistan through the lives of one family" by Hamida Ghafour
"For The Love of a Son" by Jean P. Sasson
"In the streets of Teheran: Woman, Life, Freedom": by Nila

Fiction:
"The Pearl That Broke Its Shell": by Nadia Hashimi
"The Lion Women of Teheran": by Marjan Kamali
Thank you - I'll have a look for these.

The hearing was rescheduled according to this article on BBC a few days ago.

Another drag act shoehorned into a supposed news story, this time about the natural hair industry. There is some information about the "people" (women), who shave their hair as an act of faith, and also about other "people" (poor women and girls) who sell their hair to dealers who then sell it on to wig makers. There's not a single mention of women anywhere, despite the fact that the vast majority of human hair used in wig making is from females. Still, it makes a bloke in a dress feel good, and that's all that matters 🙄

This is even worse than a mere name and number change.

I thought the whole purpose of the BMA was to regulate doctors, ensure they were fit to practice and keep the public safe. They are not fit for purpose.
Not only that but if the BMA do not understand the concept and importance of biological sex then - well I’m lost for words. What hope is there?

Straight women are now wearing wigs, how kind of you notice.
My mum wore a wig when she went out to the theatre or dinner when I was a kid in the 70s, it's not a drag invention.
They think they invented everything.

The BBC as always pushing their agenda
Apart from the fact they were blokes, they were pimping out those kids. This is the same bleeping Tatchell agenda when gay boys aren‘t entitled to the same level of protection as other kids.

All adult/child sexual encounters are exploitative. No exceptions.

The Scottish government and NHS Fife are really under pressure now. Idiots. The SNP are going to lose another leader over this if they don't cop on.
