They refused to consider evidence/counsel form stakeholders and medical science.
That wasn't terribly smart of them.
That issue is being taken to ECHR, I believe.

By the same token any women who feel that the use of words such as 'breastfeeding', or 'mother' is more important than transgenders living their lives, must be extremely non-empathetic.Many women were upset that 'chest feeding' became a thing in the NHS. Many people full stop are unhappy about the word women being appropriated by transgenders. Its amazing how aggressive these so called transgender 'women' are towards real women. They only seem to care about transgender feelings, not about the feelings of proper women.
Anyway I thought this thread was about men's and women's toilets and the power of an employer/service provider to insist you use the correct one.


Another hop, skip and jump from you.In workplaces, it is compulsory to provide sufficient single-sex toilets, as well as sufficient single-sex changing and washing facilities where these facilities are needed.
In workplaces and services that are open to the public:
Seems clear enough.
- trans women (biological men) should not be permitted to use the women’s facilities and trans men (biological women) should not be permitted to use the men’s facilities, as this will mean that they are no longer single-sex facilities and must be open to all users of the opposite sex
- in some circumstances the law also allows trans women (biological men) not to be permitted to use the men’s facilities, and trans men (biological woman) not to be permitted to use the women’s facilities
- however where facilities are available to both men and women, trans people should not be put in a position where there are no facilities for them to use
- where possible, mixed-sex toilet, washing or changing facilities in addition to sufficient single-sex facilities should be provided
- where toilet, washing or changing facilities are in lockable rooms (not cubicles) which are intended for the use of one person at a time, they can be used by either women or men
All businesses need to do is provide
Male
Female
Disabled/others (call it what you want)
Job done.
correct - there is legislation that requires employers to do this.
How many toilets should a workplace have?
HSE's relevant legislation is the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992. Regulation 20 covers Sanitary convenienceswww.hse.gov.uk
Some already want to be a dog, a train, and I remember someone else wanted to be extinct animal.What has gone wrong with the world?
What's next, will people be wanting to be kangaroos next? How many toilets will we need in 100 years?
Jeeezzzz....
