Trans people fearing arrest due to ‘confusion’ around Supreme Court ruling, say campaigners

  • The UK Supreme Court ruled last month that 'woman' under the Equality Act means biological sex, redefining legal protections for trans people.
  • This ruling triggered what advocacy groups call 'weaponised misunderstandings' that spread misinformation and confusion about trans people's rights.
  • Despite no new criminal law being created, some trans women report fear of arrest or confrontation when using women-only spaces due to this confusion.
  • Jane Fae, director of TransActual, explained that many trans individuals feel anxious about entering women’s spaces because they fear the possibility of being arrested.
  • The ruling has increased discrimination risks and legal uncertainty, prompting calls for clear guidance and parliamentary action to safeguard trans rights.
