  • Primark boss Paul Marchant has resigned following an allegation by a woman about "his behaviour towards her in a social environment".

The article from the BBC discusses the ongoing debate over the use of puberty blockers for transgender youth in the UK. It highlights the recent decision by NHS England to halt the routine prescription of puberty blockers to children and young people, following a review that found insufficient evidence on their safety and effectiveness. This decision has sparked a range of reactions; some see it as a cautious approach to protect children, while others, including transgender advocates and some medical professionals, argue that it could harm transgender youth by denying them timely medical intervention. The article also touches on the broader context of transgender healthcare, mentioning the closure of the Tavistock clinic's Gender Identity Development Service and the establishment of new regional hubs to provide more comprehensive care. Additionally, it notes the political and social dimensions of the issue, with references to public opinion, legal challenges, and the influence of international perspectives on transgender healthcare policies.
