A LEADING LGBT charity has slammed reports that the UK Government is planning a “spiteful” block of Scotland’s gender reform legislation.
Stonewall have said any interference will not only impact on the UK’s international standing, but also “undermine” the relationship with the Scottish Government.
It comes after reports in the Sunday Times that claimed Rishi Sunak and his government are poised to intervene by blocking the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill from being given Royal Assent rather than referring the matter to the Supreme Court, a move threatened by Scotland Secretary Alister Jack in the wake of the bill passing.
