UK Activist Doctors, Lawyers Defy Common-Sense Ruling on Definition of ‘Woman’
29th April 2025
Since the UK Supreme Court ruled earlier this month that the word “woman” in equality legislation really does mean woman, other decisive steps have been made in the national trans debate.
First, Prime Minister Keir Starmer said—albeit unconvincingly—that he was pleased with the ruling. Then, it was announced as a follow-up also to last year’s Cass review that the National Health Service will now test all children who believe they are transgender for neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism and ADHD. Medics will also evaluate each child’s sexual development, including possible same-sex attractions, whereas such individuals were previously misdiagnosed, and at great cost.
But efforts are also underway to undermine what campaigners described as the “incredibly worrying” Supreme Court verdict.
