Today's Video Focus: Leading children’s charity NSPCC has cut ties with Munroe Bergdorf a trans rights activist.
Three days later, she says she is still in the dark about why it
happened.
In a statement, the NSPCC said Ms Bergdorf "has supported the most

LGBTQ+ concerns" but she would have "no ongoing relationship with
Childline or the NSPCC".
Focus of the Day Article:
