Maya Forstater, a prominent women's rights campaigner, is under investigation by the Metropolitan Police for a social media post she made about a trans GP. Forstater's post, which criticized the doctor for examining women without disclosing their biological sex, has led to allegations of 'malicious communication.' The investigation has been ongoing for almost a year and could result in a prison sentence of up to two years. Forstater and her supporters argue that the police's actions constitute bullying and an assault on free speech. NHS GP Dr. Renee Hoenderkamp and other activists have publicly criticized the police for their handling of the case, calling it an example of activist-led policing. JuliaHB1 commented, 'The idea it is somehow a hateful thing to do to state biological fact and that should be punished in law has become normalised!' Jo Bartosch also criticized the police's actions.
