This is fucking embarrassing ‘journalism’ from the BBC.
Guy goes to an NHS doctor, flat-out states the nature of his investigation and gets behind the scenes information on assessments.
Then he hits up three private clinics actively looking for an ADHD diagnosis, has his friends fill out witness forms, and is shocked when he receives a diagnosis.
An utter disgrace.
Turns out, if you go and lie about your symptoms, they’ll diagnose you.
Consider me fucking shocked.
And you just know the scum at the BBC will use this to pivot and say “if they’re forcing ADHD diagnoses on people, then think of how many doctors have forced transgenderism diagnoses on people!! 😱🤢”
Anyone who knows even like 10% about how you get gender affirming care through the NHS knows that it’s the most degrading, difficult, and Kafka-esque process imaginable, but 99% of the UK public don’t know that, and would believe it if the BBC said that the NHS is transing the kids.
