It is so unspeakably cruel that the state will list Brianna Ghey as a boy on her death certificate. A Gender Recognition Certificate is not a passport to spaces - you don't need one for that. What it allows for is basic dignity on documents like marriage or death certificates.

Detectives have arrested two teenagers following the death of 16-year-old Brianna Ghey in Warrington. A 15y/o boy and a 15y/o girl, both from the local area, have been arrested on suspicion of murder. They are currently in custody assisting police with their investigation. (1/6)
