Trans rights has long since eclipsed independence as the SNP's main focus. And under Harvie, the Greens have abandoned any pretence that they care about anything else.
Swinney's problem is that he is Sturgeon's creature. Her policy for her cabinet selection was to have no-one who disagreed with her and no-one who was smarter than her, leaving her successors with a group of dullards who have no life experience and no political principles, and who are incapable to framing legislation (though the latter might be the dead hand of Lesley Evans on the Civil Service).
There is no such thing as Trans conversion therapy. That is simply a phrase that TRAs have appropriated. The "wait and see" policy recognised that fact that many teenagers struggle with body dysmorphia, and most will outgrow it by the time they are about 20.
That is why there was no definition of Trans Conversion Therapy in the pretend-consultation the Scottish Govt held. There is new evidence emerging from the Mayo Clinic regarding the damage so-called "puberty blockers" (in reality, testosterone-blockers) are actually doing to childrens' bodies, making a halt to this nonsense even more critical.
Meanwhile, activists from LGBTYS Scotland are stalking our secondary schools, and increasingly our primary schools, telling gender non-conforming children they "might be both in the wrong body".
Whatever happens in Govt, it's time these people were evicted from our education establishments. They are an ongoing danger to the wellbeing of our children.
The bottom line is that the Cass report and its recommendations must be regarded as authoritative, unless some other reputable scientific report says otherwise. The ideological gender woo-woo claims that Harvie and co. will doubtless adduce do not count as reputable, scientific or authoritative.
