CAMPAIGNERS SAY JUDGEMENT IS 'NEEDLESS ATTACK' ON MINORITY

Trans rights protesters rally against court ruling

TRANS rights protesters have taken to Leicester city centre to voice opposition to the Supreme Court's ruling on the definition of a woman.

Protesters said the ruling, which states that a woman is defined by biological sex under equalities law, was a “completely needless attack” on trans people.

People gathered in Jubilee Square on Tuesday.

The Supreme Court said its decision still gives protection against discrimination to transgender people, but protesters disagree.
