A Ministry of Justice pro-transgender document has been slammed and branded ‘insidious bullying’ by a member of the House of Lords.
Baroness Emma Nicholson of Winterbourne condemned a paper called ‘Recognising Transphobic Coded Language’, describing it as ‘hostile, intimidating and probably unlawful’ in letters to ministers.
The document, published on the HMP Prison and Probationary Service (HMPPS) internal website, outlines a glossary of phrases deemed to be transphobic, including ‘actual/real woman’ and ‘adult human female.’
