'[A] YouGov poll of 2,106 adults in Great Britain found that 63 per cent believe the Supreme Court made the correct decision in its April ruling.
The survey also revealed that 52 per cent of respondents now feel the law regarding women’s rights and their application to transgender people is clearer following the decision.
While 13 per cent said the ruling would have a positive impact on them and 6 per cent said it would be negative, more than three quarters of people (77 per cent) said the ruling would make no real difference to them.
The poll also addressed the issue of transgender women's participation in sports. Nearly three-quarters (74 per cent) of those surveyed agreed with the decisions made by some sporting bodies to ban transgender women from women’s competitions following the ruling.'

And on the subject of loos:

'On the question of toilets, around a fifth of respondents felt transgender men and women should use whichever facilities they prefer, while around two fifths said unisex toilets should be used.
Asked about which toilets transgender people should use, a fifth of those surveyed felt transgender women should use the men’s toilets, while 14 per cent said they should use the women’s toilets.
Some 17 per cent said transgender men should use the men’s toilets and the same proportion said they should use the women’s toilets.
In the wake of the Supreme Court ruling, Cabinet Office minister Pat McFadden said the “logical consequence of the judgment” was that people will have to use toilets, changing rooms and other facilities of their biological sex.'

I wonder if they checked what people understood by 'transgender women'?

I can't find the survey data on Yougov as yet.
