Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin has spoken out about gender neutral toilets in pubs after the Supreme Court’s ruling on the definition of a woman.
When asked on ITV’s Peston show (23 April), if he will be installing toilets for trans people in 800 of his pubs across the country, Mr Martin described the issue as “complex”, admitting he is “not sure on the answer”.
Last week’s ruling from the Supreme Court says the legal definition of a woman is someone born biologically female, which excludes transgender people.
The unanimous decision means trans women can be barred from places like women-only toilets and homeless shelters and kept from groups like those offer medical or counselling services only to women.
