Thank you for that, most interesting.

It's odd given their usually quite liberal stance... I wonder if there some old conservatism creeping in with the Tories being in power for so long..?

Sadly in UK transphobia seems to be pretty common in liberals and liberal institutions. I think that is because in UK the idea to connect transphobia with "womens rights" was really successful and this results in otherwise really liberal / left leaning / feminist individuals & groups to be actively anti-trans. As far as i know even otherwise trust worthy news papers like the guardian plattform anti trans talking points.
