And after all Katherine has done for the transgender cause over almost 40 years now, her book winning the Human Rights Award, the Gender Centre is treating her in the most disgraceful way. I live with Katherine and have genuine fears for her. It is time the managemnet and board of the GC are removed and I for one will be taking this up with the relevant Ministers and departments when the debacle the GC has going against Katherine is resolved.

A Shorten Federal Government has commited to a National Gender Centre so hopefully this once great institution, now a dog’s breakfast will be shut down, it’s what I will be pushing for.

Thank you Katherine for all you have done for our community over the years and continue to do today. As a former Gender Centre colleague of Katherine’s I happen to know that she has done a mammoth amount of caring for others when their fortunes were down by taking people into her home and her heart and I’m sure that is greatly appreciated by everyone whose wellbeing Katherine observed without being asked to do so. Many thanks Katherine.
