Dr Victoria McCloud, the UK’s first transgender judge, has said it was 'safer' to be trans in the 1990s than it is today.

“When I came out, things were bizarrely rather better. That was the nineties – we didn’t really have any rights, but there was less of a climate of fear,” she said to The Independent.

McCloud is leading a legal challenge at the European Court of Human Rights against the April 2025 Supreme Court ruling that, under the Equality Act, “woman” refers only to biological s3x.
