This will now almost certainly result in an enormous headache for all operators of sports facilities, public toilets, etc, as Trans people will now have protected characteristics, which means having to provide separate facilities for anyone who identifies as being other than their biological gender. In simple terms, somewhere like St Marys will, in theory, need to provide (at least) three types of toilet - Male, Female, and Trans, possibly two types of Trans, those who were born female, but identify as male, and those who were born male, but identify as female. I predict that there will either be a huge additional cost in providing facilities, or a fudged result, with re-labelling of facilities for those with disabilities as 'facilities for Disabled and Trans'. But then again, I predicted Saints would be challenging for European places this season, so my predictions are often inaccurate.
The simplest solution is to remove gendered toilets altogether.

I actually agree with you in 'normal' public places like restaurants and bars. The issue is in places like St Mary's where you have 30,000+ people all trying for a wee at half time. You need the troughs in the mens and loads of cubicles for the women. It isn't practical in a place like St Mary's to just have cubicles for all people. On that note, don't you find it very backwards that in 2025, men pee into a trough side by side with others whilst treading in all the spillages of the many hundreds that have gone before them?

Plenty of unisex toilets in all sorts of venues. In busy bars and clubs it's not unusual for women in need use the men's cubicles some with less than ladylike comments on size and ability. Too much handwringing hysteria by those completely unaffected, verging on transphobia.

They will just make the disabled toilets trans friendly. How many trans women are at football? I suspect a few trans men do attend though.

Excellent news from the Supreme Court today. And whaddayaknow? Women are determined by biology not ideology.

That it's taken a Supreme Court ruling to state what anyone with a scrap of sense knew all along says something about how deluded this country had become.
So you can still identify as whatever you feel like, but now, no more men in women's sport, changing rooms, prisons or pretending to be women doctors, as it always should have been. Actually, they can still pretend to be a woman doctor but nurses wont be made to share their changing rooms or women patients forced to accept an intimate examination from a man.
Today has been a kick in the balls for some "women".

So, with 45.6% of gynaecologists and obstetricians in the UK being men identifying as men, why is the minuscule proportion of trans women such a problem for you?
 
3billion spent on migrant hotels this year and that figure is expected to double this year, according to the BBC today

Suicidal. Empathy.

After some time off, Os hysteria strikes again!

I wonder how many billions he will come up with has been spent on anti-tank barriers? Or have we moved on to anti-missile launchers now in central London

As Os is female, this should probably be described as 'Pearl Clutching'

0.1% of GDP if true.
Meanwhile Netflix make £1.7 billion in the UK and pay £14 million in tax. That 0.82% tax rate.

On sales of £27 billion, Amazon paid £17 million. That’s 0.063% rate of tax.

Who is ripping us off more? Migrants or business?
 
Lol Trump does make me chuckle.

He is boasting that 'Every Nation wants to meet'.

Of course they do you orange idiot, you have just slapped a load of tariffs that will destroy the global economy on them.

They wouldn't want to meet you unless you had done that. Lol he is making out that they all want to meet him because he is such a great man. Don, it's not.

Absolute clown world of that it took a court to tell us what we’ve known for over a hundred thousand years.

The combination of a massive welfare state that's open to non-citizens AND liberal immigration policies is insane.

Surefire way to ruin a country AND create anti-immigrant sentiment.

I'm not sure if people are genuinely too dumb to understand this, or have ulterior motives.
