The letter was co-authored by Dr Dan O’Hare, a senior lecturer at the University of Bristol, Dr Cora Sargeant, a senior teaching fellow at the University of Southampton, and trainee educational psychologist Christie Ghent.

I'm having trouble locating a copy of the open letter. The pink news article quotes it but doesn't link to it. The author's linked in only posted the pink news article.

Err, I am not quite sure what to make of the first of your links? It appears to be in defense of the Cass Review and attempt at silencing critics?

Edit: Perhaps this is the motion of BMA to which the originally linked was a a criticism. https://www.bma.org.uk/bma-media-centre/bma-to-undertake-an-evaluation-of-the-cass-review-on-gender-identity-services-for-children-and-young-people
