Reform UK — Fareham and Waterlooville

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 June 2026

Debate

Pathways Study: Puberty Suppression

Contribution

No child is born in the wrong body. The scandal of thousands of children being put through irreversible medical intervention such as puberty blockers causing infertility, among other harms, has gone on for more than a decade, and it will go down as one of the worst examples of state failure in our history. Officials advise and Ministers decide. Why does the Secretary of State not use the considerable executive power vested in him personally to overrule his official advice, pause the puberty blockers trial and put child safety first?
