At the time of writing, despite the media myth of a powerful trans lobby, in the UK there are no openly trans newspaper editors and no trans staff writers at any major newspapers, no trans television commissioners, no trans High Court judges, no trans MPs, no trans members of the devolved legislatures of Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, and no trans chief executives at major charities. (Jay Stewart, chief executive of the youth charity Gendered Intelligence, is the only trans person to head any of the British charities specifically campaigning on trans issues.)
