A Glasgow trans woman and activist has condemned the UK Government's decision to block Scotland's gender recognition law as "attack on Scotland's trans people" and devolution.
Beth Douglas, who is the Rainbow Greens Co-Convenor and based in Govan, said she believes the decision will not pass in courts and was being used as a "manufactured culture war".
The Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, which would make it easier for trans people to obtain a Gender Recognition Certificate, was passed by the Scottish Parliament in December.
