Rejected petition Allow Transgender Identities To Be Legally Recognised Across The UK

After the decision that was passed by the UK Supreme Court, the lives of transgender individuals are now threatened due to their identities being dismissed by the UK Government. The Supreme Court unfairly passed the bill without hearing from our side and our everyday experiences.

More details

The only people affected by the bill are trans individuals, it is not protecting women but discriminating against the transgender people who fight for their existence to be known everyday across the globe.

We require the right to gender-neutral bathrooms and changing rooms from the government, along with the right for our identity and preferred gender on important documents to be legally recognised by the state.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The UK Government cannot change court judgements but could introduce new legislation about this.

We already have a petition open calling for the Government to amend the Equality Act to define the terms woman and man not based on biological sex.
