Labour in Crisis: Party's Transgender Policy Under Fire After Supreme Court Ruling
- Thursday, 17 April 2025
Labour is facing pressure to reevaluate its stance on gender laws after a Supreme Court ruling stated that transgender women are not legally women. A health minister, Karin Smyth, refused to specify which changing room transgender women should use, despite the unanimous ruling. The president of one of Britain's largest unions, which gives Labour millions annually, stated that the decision does not change its pro-trans policy. Labour MPs and LGBT+ groups criticized the court's findings, while Chancellor Rachel Reeves was evasive about whether Keir Starmer should apologize for criticizing her statement that only women have a cervix.
