Sir Keir Starmer has vowed that Labour's support for transgender people won't override women's rights, as he called for an end to the 'toxic divide' over trans issues.
Sir Keir insisted that should he win the keys to Number 10 at the next election, there would be “no rolling back” of women’s rights.
He added: “There are some people who identify as a different gender to the one they are born with. It’s a very small number, and that is why the Gender Recognition Act was passed [in 2004]. "But simply turning it into a toxic divide advances the cause of no one – the cause of women or those that don’t identify with the gender that they were born into.
