Shadow education secretary Bridget Phillipson says trans women who have gone 'through the process' would use female toilets during a conversation with Times Radio on safe spaces for women.

A Labour frontbencher has risked deepening Labour's gender chaos by suggesting pre-op trans women should use women's toilets.

However, there is no requirement for people to have had reassignment surgery, or be planning to do so. Presenter Kait Borsay confronted Ms Phillipson with a scenario, asking: 'I am someone who is biologically a male, but I have changed my gender. Told that wasn't 'protecting a woman's space', Ms Phillipson said: 'I'm talking about people who have gone through a process... quite an extensive process.'

The move comes despite fears that legislation could inadvertently prevent parents and therapists from talking to children about gender identity.
