Surprising transsexual aid
Norway's Christian Democrat Party continues their support for transsexuals, in contrast to the conservative image of party leader Dagfinn Høybråten.
http://www.aftenposten.no/english/local/article2416109.eceNorwegian health authorities have decided to drop financial support for the National organization for the diagnosis transsexualism (LFTS) which the group says is essential.
After a meeting with representatives for the transsexuals on Tuesday, Høybråten has sent a letter to Health Minister Sylvia Brustad asking that she restore LFTS support to current levels.
"The organization does an important job for equality both for transsexuals and their families - children and parents. This is a small but extremely vulnerable group," Høybråten told newspaper VG.
