How's the business going?

We're busier than ever, but struggling to get the staff we need. Recruiting can be such a distraction. We gave Job Centre Plus a try, and they've really helped us out. Really? Yeah. It was dead easy. We got our own employer advisor, Julie, who helped advertise our jobs, shortlisted candidates for us and letters interview at the Job Centre. We've hired some great people, and Job Centre Plus really took the hassle out of it, And there was no fee.

Brilliant. That's straight on my to-do list. view at the Job Centre. We've hired some great people and Job Centre Plus really took the hassle

like it's literally as dumb as the flatter's, again, just think about what puberty does and you're

stopping that or interfering with that.

You would expect it to have very wide-ranging effects right through the body and the brain.

It's your right to grow up to be an independent human being.

It's your right to go through this process that turns you into someone who can go out into the world.

You have had your puberty blocked and you're telling everybody that you're the opposite sex.

You can't choose the opposite sex as toilets.

You can't go into their changing room.

You can't do their sports.

It's increasingly becoming clear you can't make everybody else.

Call you the sex that you wish you were?

So why the hell are we pretending?

Hello, welcome back to the Brendan O'Neill show with me, Brendan O'Neill, and my special guest this week, Helen Joyce. Helen, welcome to the show.

Hi, thank you for having me on.

It's great to have you back on again. Always a pleasure to talk to you. There's a lot I want to catch up with you about, but it would be remiss of me not to kick off with this puberty blocker issue. You know, I'm one of those people who is quite optimistic and thinks that the trans craziness is fading away. And then I see these headlines about a massive

puberty blocker experiment being carried out in the UK. And I'm like, oh no, we're back here

again. So could you explain to us what exactly is happening with this trial that's going on right now?
