They wrote in an email to What The Trans:
To whom it may concern,
I am a representative of BASH BACK, a trans led direct action group devoted to tackling the rising tide of transphobia in the UK. As I write this, actionists are conducting our first action at Wes Streeting's office in Ilford North.
Wes Streeting, as you well know, is responsible for a heinous ban on puberty blockers for trans youth, as well as a swathe of other restrictions on transgender people's healthcare rights.
He is also, according to at least one legal professional, personally responsible for covering up reports of the deaths of trans young people under the care of NHS England. Every day, trans people are dying as a result of his policies and his inaction.
As trans people, we refuse to take this lying down any longer. We have chosen to take action to demonstrate that we will not be victimised or scapegoated by Streeting and his ilk any longer. We will not allow more of our loved ones to be to be harrassed, to be legislated, to be excluded, to be denied healthcare, to be murdered. We are trans and we BASH BACK.
Ok so explain how costing citizens more public funds for repairs helps their cause and doesn't just alienate everyone?
What they are is right-wing plants, trying to make trans groups take the fall for their idiocy. It's clear as day.
Jesus fucking Christ. This will cost you less in your tax bill than the state's support for the famine in Gaza.
People need to make a fucking point. Let them.
I don't live there, so I don't really give a fuck. What I give a fuck about is groups like these giving the actual people they're "defending" a bad name.
But that's not what you fucking said is it. You said that they are costing taxpayers. So why would you give a single solitary shite about that if it's not your taxes? Where do you live? Why are you weighing in on this as though you do live here?
Offices are paid for centrally by a Parliamentary agency. Local taxes going to local things isn’t a thing in Britain.
You're the absolute fucking opposite of a "witty" whatever the fuck. Messed up that username something bad if you can't even fucking read a comment. Here, I'll paste it again for you.

I even highlighted the important parts, in case your crayon filled nose is covering up the phone. Looney tunes motherfucker.
You're a bad troll, you could use your time to do good you know?
Had to go get your alt account, huh?
Why don't you doubly fuck off then.
You've made my point my guy
Absolutely incredible. The front of you to put that edit in then gaslight as though it was there when I wrote my comment.
That's a very good point you make.
And yet you keep commenting.
Emiline Pankhurst and the suffragettes were terrorists, and even called themselves terrorists. They won that fight didn't they despite plenty of reactionary "someone please think of the taxpayer" cowards.
"But can't you see that protesting won't change anything, so why even bother", the antiprotestors loudly protested.
They did not win. Again, the WSPU completely abandoned its campaign with no results on the outbreak of war. Pankhurst had already moved on to ethno-nationalist politics by the time the vote was extended. In any case, the Suffragette version of the franchise excluded working class men and women, as Pankhurst didn’t think they would vote in the Empire’s interest. Even when Women got the vote it wasn’t in the way the WSPU wanted.
What's your point? Direct action doesn't work because unless your results align 100% with your initial goals?
My point is that in modern Britain, violence hasn’t been a route to any “freedom”
Quickly looking through the guidelines, it seems the public wouldn’t fund damage costs.
