Admitting trans women to women-only spaces creates a risk women in rape crisis centres will be “gaslit” by biological males, an employment tribunal has heard.

The tribunal is hearing the case of Sandie Peggie, who was suspended by NHS Fife after complaining about having to share a changing room with Dr Beth Upton at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy on Christmas Eve 2023.
