Holyrood 'trying to run us out of cash' over legal fight

'Huge reluctance' to accept biological sex ruling

- BY KATRINE BUSSEY

A CAMPAIGN group which won a landmark Supreme Court fight against the Scottish government fears ministers are "trying to run us out of cash" ahead of a second high-profile legal action.

For Women Scotland is preparing to take on the government again in 2026, with a legal challenge against the policy of allowing transgender inmates to be placed in female prisons. The action comes in the wake of the group’s success at the Supreme Court in April, when judges ruled the term “woman” in the Equality Act refers to biological sex.
