Reverse the decision to scrap the gender recognition act

Petition Details

The government needs to reverse the decision to scrap the gender recognition act.

Additional Information

This decision is infringing on trans rights by making it so that trans individuals can no longer self-identify. Also, by reducing the number of doctors who can choose who transitions, it slows the process of transitioning greatly and therefore puts more trans lives at risk.
