Baroness Cass claims children have been weaponised' in gender debate
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"There are a tiny number of people who will never be comfortable with their biological sex, with the gender associated with their biological sex. For them, a medical pathway is the only way they're going to live their life comfortably. We don't understand why that is, but we have to try and help those people thrive as much as the young people who are going to grow out of this."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it."
Journalists are deployed to cover reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, funded by reader donations while maintaining free access without paywalls. Donations enable reporters to interview multiple perspectives and produce documentaries such as 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. Baroness Hilary Cass, who led a comprehensive review of NHS gender care for under-18s, warned that children have been weaponised and misled by social media about gender transition. Her review prompted reforms including a ban on puberty blockers. She welcomed Department for Education draft guidance but noted limitations and emphasized that only a tiny minority will require medical pathways.
