More on those "you need to be re-educated" nurses, in the Times:

Transgender policies at hospitals are putting women “at risk”, four NHS nurses have claimed, after blowing the whistle on the “intimidating” behaviour of a trans colleague.

Lawyers for Bethany Hutchison, Lisa Lockey, Annice Grundy, Tracey Hooper and Joanne Bradbury, who work at the Darlington Memorial Hospital, said they were launching legal action and speaking publicly after managers “continued to brush aside their concerns”.

The four have claimed that female nurses at the hospital — part of the County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust — have experienced panic attacks after being required to change into work clothes in front of a sexually active biological male.

The male operating department practitioner, who the nurses have alleged has said openly that he does not take female hormones and is trying to get his girlfriend pregnant, identifies as a woman and uses the name Rose.

Speaking for the group, Hutchison said that they wanted “women to be aware that there are transgender policies, particularly in the NHS, that are putting us at risk”.

She said that “the extreme transgender ideology” was “ingrained” among health service managers and that it had “gone so far that we and other women have no choice but to speak out”.

Hutchison claimed that nurses at her hospital were “terrified of sticking their heads above the parapet”, adding: “This cannot be right and we want a change in policy, not only at our hospital, but across the NHS and wider society.”The nurse also accused managers at her trust of being “threatening and intimidating” towards staff who had raised concerns about the hospital’s transgender policy.

The nurses claimed that hospital bosses told them they needed “educating” to be more “inclusive” and to “broaden” their minds, according to The Mail on Sunday.

Good luck to them.
