The “conservatives” spent over a decade without doing this.
Labour did it in the first 6 months.
Kinda makes you think, doesn’t it?

The British government on Wednesday indefinitely banned puberty blockers for children with gender dysphoria after independent experts found there was an unacceptable safety risk in prescribing the medication.
The decision, which will be revisited in 2027, effectively bans a common approach to medical gender transitions for youths. It also goes against standards held by medical groups elsewhere, including the European and World Professional Associations for Transgender Health, as well as the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
The ban will prevent prescribing medications that can suppress or pause puberty in children with gender dysphoria, providing more time to consider options that could include gender reassignment.
The announcement comes after a judge this summer upheld an emergency ban in a ruling that said the treatment was potentially harmful. The emergency ban was put in place by the center-right Conservative government and has now been extended by the center-left Labour government.
The ban does not apply to those already receiving puberty blockers for gender dysphoria, to their use in clinical studies or in treatment of children with precocious puberty, an uncommon medical condition that causes puberty to begin abnormally early.
The Science says puberty can be fatal
It applies across the United Kingdom after consultation with the Scottish and Welsh governments, and an agreement with Northern Ireland.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting said a clinical trial will be set up next year to better evaluate use of the drugs.
“We need to act with caution and care when it comes to this vulnerable group of young people, and follow the expert advice,” Streeting said.

TransActual criticized Wednesday’s decision, saying that evidence of danger from 40 years of puberty blockers remains elusive.
“Banning medicines with no evidence of serious harm, only for trans people … is discrimination plain and simple,” said Keyne Walker, the group’s strategy director. “Evidence of the harm of the temporary ban continues to emerge, and will grow now that it has been made permanent.”
This is just nonsense.
There is all kinds of evidence for very serious harm.
We know well about the psychological effects, all of these suicides and regrets.
But on the biological health front, studies have proved these drugs significantly lower your IQ.
The British Tavistock study showed that the drugs completely destroy body development, and that the bones and other core systems never recover. They also found mental health does not improve.
There isn’t really even a debate here, which is why the child molesters just make outrageous statements like “you have no proof.”
We shouldn’t even be having this discussion at all. If souls are really being trapped in the wrong bodies, someone needs to explain how and why that is happening before we go any further with this discussion.
This is what puberty blockers were actually made for
