Plans to simplify system for people to change sex on their birth certificate are polarising opinion
Protesters opposed to transgender rights changes in Scotland booed Nicola Sturgeon outside the Holyrood parliament before the first session of first minister’s questions of the new term.
Marion Calder, co-founder of For Women Scotland, which organised the event, told a crowd of around 350 women and men, many wearing suffragette colours and holding placards reading “save our single-sex spaces” and “sex not gender”, that the protest was a “wake-up call” for MSPs.
