Sir Keir Starmer has “hauled the Labour party back to the common sense position”, a Labour Party source said on Wednesday, following the Supreme Court’s ruling that the terms “women” and “sex” in the Equality Act refer to a biological woman and biological sex.
The Government has said that the decision delivers “clarity” on the matter for hospitals and refuges of whether or not a person with a gender recognition certificate (GRC) identifying as female should be treated as a woman under equality law.
