The First Minister made the allegation after Scottish Secretary Alister Jack used the original devolution legislation to stop Holyrood’s Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill from receiving Royal Assent.
Nicola Sturgeon has accused the UK Government of stoking a “culture war” by blocking gender recognition reforms.
The GRR legislation, passed by MSPs last month, makes it simpler for trans people to change gender - but critics fear it would negatively impact on UK equality laws. She said: “If it is allowed to happen on this, then I think that is a very slippery slope of the UK government deciding to veto decisions of the Scottish Parliament anytime you like.”“A UK government wanting to undermine the Scottish Parliament and choosing an issue where they think they can stoke some kind of culture war....that's what it is about.
Sturgeon replied: “Men tend not to feel the need to pretend to be women in order to abuse women, they certainly don't feel the need to go through a legal process.”
