Something something something zeal of the convert … except there’s no zeal on show here, just bowing to the inevitable. The law is now crystal clear and Starmer has no choice but to respect it, no matter how hard he might want to obfuscate to keep his Loony Left happy.

Quote:
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer does not believe transgender women are women, his official spokesman has said.
It comes after the UK Supreme Court ruled last week that a woman is defined by biological sex under equalities law.
In March 2022, when he was leader of the opposition, Sir Keir told the Times, that "a woman is a female adult, and in addition to that transwomen are women, and that is not just my view - that is actually the law".

Interesting that just 3 years ago this highly qualified barrister was completely misunderstanding the law - as the Supreme Court has now ruled, a so-called ‘transwoman’ is not, and never has been, a woman in law.
Men who claim they are women, and women who claim they are men, are under certain circumstances allowed to apply for a certificate, and thereafter the State will treat them
as if they are the opposite sex, under certain appropriate circumstances. That is all it is, and all it ever was.
