In this episode, I investigate how schools have become a breeding ground for ideologically-driven ideas which have encouraged children and young people to believe in the false notion that they can change sex.
Parents tell me about the extent of legal confusion and hostility to parents who’ve challenged pseudoscience in the classroom.

In 2018, former BBC journalist Hannah Barnes stumbled on a curious story involving apparent turmoil at an NHS clinic which was being overwhelmed by children described as experiencing “gender distress”.

In this episode, David, now retired, and Hannah who is associate editor at the New Statesman, describe what followed.
