‘Irony’ of NSW government's plan to ban gay conversion therapy

Sky News host James Macpherson has pointed out the “irony” in the NSW government’s plan to ban gay conversion therapy. Mr Macpherson’s remarks come after NHS England’s decision to stop prescribing puberty blockers to children experiencing gender dysphoria. “Chris Minns was introducing ant-gay conversion which of course will make it illegal to oppose gender affirmation,” he said. “So, it’s an incredible irony while overseas they’re recognising, we really need to hit pause on this and recognise gender affirmation is not the way to go. “You’ve got to consider a holistic approach.”
