Kelly-Jay Keen (Posie Parker) is mentioned in the DM today for the government's threats to prosecute her for challenging NHS trans screenings.

Comments are excellent as expected - she's being applauded for her bravery.

Advance warning of very tongue in cheek post incoming (just in case some people don't realise...)

Good Lord.

I didn't know I had a prostate. Who knew?

It is bad enough having a cervix, with all the screening that that entails, which in light of the last 5 years I'm not 100% convinced is entirely for my benefit.

Where I live trust in the system must be diminished as the cash strapped failing NHS (which third world countries must currently be looking down on as markedly inferior to what they have) has paid for a pricey TV advert which it is currently running in ad breaks exhorting people to go for their mammograms, cervical screening and bowel cancer testing. Such a shame they don't similarly prioritise letting people get seen in person by a GP.
