Nigel Farage issues 8-word statement after Reform trans row erupts | Politics | News
Nigel Farage insisted that the reform never supported men in women’s prisons after a trans line in the UK. The new justice consultant of the rebellious party spoke against the ban on blanket for the imprisonment of trans women in women’s prisons.
However, his comments have launched a criticism of gender critical campaignists, including Harry Potter writer JK Rowling. In an article in X today, the reform leader Mr. Farage said, “I have never supported men in women’s prisons.” He said.
In April, the Clacton deputy described the decision of a woman’s legal definition of biological gender as a “victory for common sense”.
Former prison Governor Vanessa Frake made statements yesterday that reform was announced as a new justice tsar at a press conference yesterday.
Times told Times: “Probably there are equally inferior women because they are transfers. So all of them are about risk assessments for me and each should be done individually.”
When the comments at the reform press conference were asked, Mr. Farage said: “When it comes to trans women in prison, it is not interesting to manage our country with people who are often those who have no idea about the subject they are talking about.
“Personally, I haven’t worked in a prison, so I can’t answer, but I think you’ll find the answer you get from someone working in the highest possible level prisons.
However, conservative leader Kemi Badenoch, Tories “the only party standing only for women” insistently seized comments.
“After the Supreme Court decision, we should no longer hear that men have participated in women’s prisons. We are still here. He did not do his reform homework as usual and will make a great confusion.”
In the meantime, Rowling said: “He really surprised anyone’s shock. The big areas on the left does not mean that a large part of the right is not as indifferent to women’s rights and problems because they have revealed themselves.”
In April, the Supreme Court comes after deciding that the terms “women” and “sex” in the 2010 Equality Act “referring to a biological woman and biological gender”.
The decision has been interpreted as it means that transsexual women can only be removed from women’s areas, such as toilet and dressing rooms.
