  • Reform could form a new government in Wales after next year's Senedd election, the party's Welsh spokesman has said. Oliver Lewis told BBC Wales this was "well within the realms of feasibility", with Reform winning "20, 30, or hopefully 40" seats in an enlarged 96-member Welsh Parliament.

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 restrict the use of these drugs outside of research settings, following a review that raised concerns about the lack of long-term data on their effects. Puberty blockers, which delay the physical changes of puberty, have been a point of contention, with supporters arguing they provide crucial time for young people to explore their gender identity without the pressure of unwanted physical changes.

The article also touches on the emotional and psychological impact on transgender youth and their families, with some feeling that their access to necessary healthcare is being curtailed, while others see the move as a cautious step towards ensuring safety and better understanding of the treatment's effects.
