EP163 - International Concerns

On another excitingly sleek episode of everyone's fourth-or-fifth favourite trans news podcast, our plucky hosts Ashleigh and Flint go over:

• Ashleigh describes the challenges she experienced on the day of recording. Don't worry, this segment is (intended to be) funny. 
• A three-strike Pond Hoppin', including Medicaid, the WBNA and oh no, not Dolly AND Tim! :( 
• Changes happening to adult gender waiting lists.
• A short insert talking about the Welsh Gender Clinics and their cancellations of surgeries, as first reported by us and our comrades at QueerAF: Link below!
• A continental platter of several international organisations expressing concern with the direction of travel in the UK for trans people. 
• We round things off with our usual blast of Trans Joy.
