Protest against violence towards transgender people

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: On Saturday 21 January 2023, hundreds of protesters marched from Downing Street to Hyde Park to demand real equality for trans people, an end to transphobic violence and an immediate reversal of the UK government's decision to block Scotland's progressive Gender Recognition Reform Bill which simplifies the procedure for a trans person to obtain a gender recognition certificate, which until now has been highly "intrusive, medicalised and bureaucratic."

The LGBTQ oranisation Stonewall commented -

"This is a piece of legislation that simply seeks to make the process for legally recognising a trans man or trans women's gender more respectful and straightforward. Scotland's Bill aligns it with leading international practice endorsed by the United Nations and adopted by 30 countries, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Irealand and most of the United States of America."

The bill had received cross-party support in the Scottish parliament and was supported by 88 members - the overwhelming majority of Scottish MSPs - only 33 voted against and just 4 abstained. The legislation was also clearly within the scope of what the Scottish parliament can legislate according to its devolved powers. However, for the first time ever, the British government used section 35 of the Scotland Act to unilaterally veto the reforms.
