Transvox - Reflecting on the Supreme Court Judgment on Trans Rights
In this episode of Transvox, hosts Jenny and Gillian discuss the recent Supreme Court judgment regarding the Equality Act and its impact on trans rights in the UK. They detail the legal interpretation, which holds that 'sex' in the Equality Act refers to biological sex, allowing organisations to restrict certain facilities to biological sexes.
They critique the judgment, explore its implications for trans individuals, and advocate for a calm, measured response. They emphasise the need for the trans community to remain organised, proactive, and focused on long-term goals for true equity and liberation.
