]]> The emergency restrictions came into effect in June.

A High Court judge has found that a UK emergency ban on the sale or supply of puberty blockers is lawful.

The restrictions came into effect on June 3 and apply to young people under 18 with gender dysphoria in England, Wales and Scotland.

Justice Beverley Lang said in a ruling made public on Monday that a review commissioned by the National Health Service (NHS) about the “very substantial risks and very narrow benefits associated with the use of puberty blockers” had provided “powerful scientific evidence” in support of the restrictions.

The group TransActual and a youth who cannot be named under a court order sought to challenge the decision of former health secretary Victoria Atkins to ban prescribing hormones that can delay the development of puberty.

They are sometimes prescribed to help children with gender dysphoria by giving them more time to consider options that could include gender reassignment.

The ban restricts the NHS from providing the medication outside of clinical trials and prevents it from being prescribed by private suppliers.

The NHS stopped prescribing puberty blockers last year, saying there was not enough evidence about the benefits and harms.

]]> LONDON (AP) — The United Kingdom’s first election in five years is shaping up as a battle for the country’s soul, with some saying it poses an existential threat to the governing Conservative Party, which has been in power since 2010.

The center-right Conservatives took power during the depths of the global financial crisis and have won two more elections since then. But those 14 years have been filled with challenges and controversies, making the Tories, as they are commonly known, easy targets for critics on the left and right.

Labour, which leans to the left, faces its own challenges in shaking off a reputation for irresponsible spending and proving that it has a plan to govern.

Both parties are being ripped apart by the conflict in the Middle East, with the Tories facing charges of Islamophobia and Labour struggling to distance itself from antisemitism that festered under former leader Jeremy Corbyn.

]]> LONDON (AP) — Residents of riverside towns in England that were swamped by rains that washed over Europe this week bailed out Friday as flooding disrupted train service and officials warned that waters could rise in the days ahead.

A powerful storm that brought damaging winds inundated more than 1,000 homes and businesses and left several communities under muddy brown water, officials said. Buildings and cars were submerged as streets turned to streams, farmland was flooded and boats were torn from their moorings.

A landslide and floodwaters disrupted train travel on several lines operating out of London and on routes in southwest England that stretch into Wales.
