Nobody has said otherwise. The argument is of course:
And the fact that the circumstances that would allow a man-woman to explicitly strip search a woman, will never happen.
They have the right to choose who searches them. That surely is key to this.
You still don't get that the policy makes a man who has become a women via a GRC, the same sex as a person born female.
nonsense.
no they don't.
They can refuse consent based upon any person (or surroundings) that are not compliant with the conditions set out in law - correct.
The person must be asked how they would prefer the search to be conducted and who they are more comfortable with conducting that search.
You still don't get that the 'rules' governing strip searches, will never allow a man-woman anywhere near strip searching a woman. Never in a million years.
nonsense - Do you think Dr Duff consented?
Incorrect. Same sex is the only requirement. A man cannot demand a female officer conducts the search or vice a versa. You are conflating the procedure for searching a non-binary, trans, etc.
But they do. That is the point of the BTP policy. It says for the purposes of PACE a Man-woman (with a GRC) is the same sex as a born woman
Nonsense.
