The Health Secretary has warned he is “treading cautiously” in his decision to restrict puberty blockers amid “lots of fear and anxiety”.

Wes Streeting has faced criticism from within his own party for the decision, with members of Labour’s LGBT wing writing to him on Sunday with “concerns” about an indefinite ban.

Victoria Atkins, Mr Streeting’s predecessor in the former Conservative government, used Medicines Act 1968 powers to stop private or European organisations from prescribing puberty blockers to young people aged under 18, if the drugs were intended to aid with gender incongruence or gender-affirming healthcare.

Former clinical nurse Susan Evans joins Talk’s Alex Phillips to discuss this further.
