Glinner talks about the news regarding Susie Green, including rumours as to why it is happening.. Sounds very much like something is going on regarding her son - potentially desisting and reverting to he/him.

What has happened to her child is the saddest part of this story. But it's exactly why the safeguards that Mermaids tried so fervently to destroy should be in place.

If he is desisting then I can only hope it causes self-reflection at the very least, and penance/ children's rights advocacy as a good first step.
