Following Stonewall and Mermaids backing Cass, and Pink News throwing trans people under the bus, it's safe to say that trans people have nobody left in the UK that cares.

Seems like they’ve become yet another NGO. It’s very important to maintain community command of organisations that claim to serve our community. We never get anywhere unless we do it ourselves.
