Trans women will be barred from the main part of Labour’s women’s conference next year, the party has said, with entrance to the main conference hall and voting rights denied.
All delegates will be allowed to attend a fringe programme, under the party’s plans as Labour seeks to find a compromise position it believes will comply with the supreme court’s ruling on gender – while also being inclusive to trans delegates.
A spokesperson for the gender-critical group Labour Women’s Declaration said: “A one-day, rather than a two-day, women’s conference tacked on to Labour’s annual conference is not ideal. But it’s better than no women’s conference.”
