Wait... something common sense is being done by the government? This is bizarre

[frishter]

It's inhumane that vulnerable groups are taken advantage of an pushed down a harmful path. A lot of us get suppressed for minor pushback.

[phillawrence]

It's criminal this was ever allowed in the first place. Doctors responsible for child sterilisation should be in prison

[TheAlexagius]

The first sensible thing the British government has done for a long while.

[mythical]

This never should have been allowed in the first place!

[rossdiggle]

The first useful thing the labour government have done.

[kimshin]

Now the government needs to ban all these books that’s been added to the schools that are disgusting and made by sick individuals

[Elliot-pqms]

The only sensible answer I’ve heard from this government in the past few years .

[Starlightt]

Finally the UK being sensible. America should follow suit

[Englishsea]

I would have thought it was fatal to mess around with the body's natural puberty cycle like that. For those that have taken them the damage will probably be irreversible

[lokireid]

All people need is to read The Vedas and learn about the 3rd xes <. These blockers should have never been allowed for children.

[brendadias]

Hope they are strict about it and do not keep a loophole for the criminals.

[justjane]

Quite honestly I don’t know what puberty blockers are ! But I know I don’t like creeps talking about banning books about the subject !

[dirty_beggar]

The only sensible thing i heard from this government so far

[freyapc]

Tick- at last someone from Labour gets it right! Great work banning ban puberty blockers Wes Streeting, preventing harm to kids. Thank you. And I hope those who were harmed by puberty blockers get justice.

[fishinaboxful]

Regardless of the human social issues here and only a chance accidental side effect of putting in place the ban, good to know a sale ban will stop the slavery torture and murder of hundreds of thousands of animals who have no choice that to be forced to suffer and die to continually test these medications

[XRyanK]

How did this take SO long to sort out...

[ChristineParry-wh]

Thank goodness, some sense around this subject.

[GPStarters]

Can't believe it got th8s far in the first place, i think peopl3 need jail time for these crimes against kids! Oh yeah I forgot the government would just let them out anyway...

[iraira]

Thank God ! We are remaining humans yet .
