That should not be at public expense, and it doesn’t change who they are or give them any more rights than the ones they were born with. It certainly doesn’t give them the right to tell other people what they should think, feel or believe

Well I do hope no one is messing with children’s bodies, but I didn’t mention children. Altering a healthy body is not healthcare - it’s elective plastic surgery which many adults do (including me)but which should not be an NHS expense.

A prison is where we send people who have been tried and convicted of crimes, and who have been given legal sentences. This is not that, it’s a place to warehouse people who have been rounded up off the streets - perhaps do your own comparison.
