UK SUPREME COURT Shocks Nation: “Woman” NOW Means Biological Female Only
— The UK Supreme Court just ruled that the word “woman” in law means only those born female. Transgender women are now excluded from being recognized as women under British law. Supporters say this protects girls and women, especially in sports and single-sex spaces.
Opponents claim the ruling leaves transgender women without legal rights or protection. The decision has sparked fierce debate across Britain and could push lawmakers to revisit gender laws soon.
This comes as the UK faces other big headlines: inflation is dropping, the government took back British Steel from Chinese owners, and new rules will tighten food imports from Europe. Police also arrested Greenpeace activists after they dumped red dye into a pond at the US Embassy in London.
Instagram now makes parents approve if minors want to livestream, while prison staff got new safety warnings after a violent attack on duty. The Supreme Court’s move is a major shift for how gender identity will be handled by British law going forward.
