With all the news about the BBC censoring a “Protect the Dolls” t-shirt, it’s sad to see how this transphobic trend goes back years. The BBC is literally participating in trans erasure.

The Brexiteer Tory Remnant government filled the top ranks with loyalists a few years back. They didn’t like it being non-partison, so they said it was biased so they could make political appointments.
