GRA reform in England has been totally scrapped. In fact they are looking at ways of tightening up the single sex exemptions. So Scotland has plans to be a tourist destination for those who want to change their birth certificates without medical involvement (self ID).
So far, the SNP draft bill shows how disingenuous they are in taking any concerns seriously & they've stuck rigidly to ignoring women while smearing 'concerns' as transphobic or misinformation. Their Equality impact assessment was terrible, they even quoted from a research paper claiming there was no evidence of women working in the support sector having concerns when it actually stated the opposite. And the awful 'paper' quoted that scotgov had to roll back on, which compared males claiming to be women, changing in female only space, to women who had had mastectomies.
The SNP will continue to gerrymander this issue - they've had the draft bill consultation responses analysed & buried that til after the election. They also previously committed to publishing all the responses & have since said they won't now do that. Which again raises questions over how this is being handled.
This of all the things Sturgeon has done is the one that infuriates me most. Because it's an abuse of the power she & her party has, to force through legal changes they know aren't widely supported. Coupled with their claim that TWAW is government policy when it's not even recorded anywhere when & how they reached that conclusion, this GRA bill they're going to push through is nailed on to be the final nail in women's rights in Scotland.
