Plymouth, I'm sure you know what to do.
Three and half years ago, 21 Labour MSPs (including Anas Sarwar) voted to pass the Gender Recognition Reform Bill which would have granted self-ID rights (but the UK Tory government blocked it). Now, the anti-trans Scottish Labour want to eliminate trans integration, safety and privacy altogether.
