Tidligere statsminister i Storbritannia Liz Truss lover å beskytte kvinner og unge mennesker ved å stå opp mot “ekstrem woke-ideologi som prioriterer kjønnsidentitet over biologisk kjønn.
Den tidligere statsministeren introduserer et lovutkast for parlamentet som hun sier vil markere en “betydelig seier for sunn fornuft” så vel som for barns velvære og kvinners rettigheter.
I henhold til planen hennes ville ikke transkjønnede kvinner få adgang til garderober og toaletter som er reservert for kvinner, skoler ville få forbud mot å la elever identifisere seg som det motsatte kjønn, og barn under 18 år ville bli forhindret fra å ta pubertetsblokkere eller cross-sex. hormoner.
Truss skriver i sitt lovforslag at regningen hennes er “svært nødvendig” fordi det for øyeblikket ikke er nok beskyttelse for kvinner og unge.
Som likestillingsminister blokkerte hun planer som ville ha tillatt hvem som helst å “selv-identifisere seg” som det motsatte kjønn.
Mail online skriver videre:
Her Health and Equality Acts (Amendment) Bill is one of 20 Private Members’ Bills being formally presented to the Commons today.
It has been backed by senior Tories, including former home secretary Dame Priti Patel, former health minister Jackie Doyle-Price and Caroline Johnson, who is a consultant paediatrician as well as an MP.
However Private Members’ Bills become law only if the Government supports them and finds time to vote them through.
Ms Truss’s move comes amid a split in the Tory party over the divisive issue of gender ideology.
Many on the Right are urging the Government to ban so-called social transitioning in schools but long-awaited gender guidance for teachers, which may be published next week, is expected to include only a ‘presumption against’ it.
Prominent backbenchers will today challenge Education Secretary Gillian Keegan on the spread of gender ideology in schools when she appears before the Education Select Committee.
Yet ten Conservative MPs are also backing a Labour MP’s Private Members’ Bill proposing a ban on conversion therapy for gay or transgender people.
They are urging action after the Government dropped a plan to outlaw forcing people to change their sexuality or gender identity, amid fears it would criminalise parents, doctors and teachers for talking to young people who are questioning their gender identity.
