ANAS Sarwar has reportedly refused to say if he would vote for Holyrood’s gender reforms again - despite voting for them in the first place.
Sarwar also voted for the legislation, but now appears to suggest that the party should have been more “conditional” in their support for the bill and pushed on the amendments they put forward, many of which they dropped during the stage three process.
Starmer has previously said that a system allowing people to legally identify as their chosen gender, as the Scottish legislation would have allowed, is not the “right way forward”. Rayner told the BBC that both UK and Scottish Labour want to “protect women’s rights” and transgender rights. “Of course there has to be a process for people that is supportive and that is when you get into the weeds of how you ensure that we do have trans rights that are compatible and compassionate and humane.“At the moment the process isn’t, and we have acknowledged that, that there are problems with the process, and therefore there has to be a process that is a supportive process that recognises that people can transition and that we do that in a way that is supportive of those people.
