Green Councillors are continuing to work to ensure Oxford remains a trans-inclusive city. This follows the Supreme Court ruling on the Equality Act earlier this year which the Greens say risks undermining the rights of trans and non- binary people and their access to services.
Specifically, local Green Councillors have been pushing for the City Council to ensure that its provision of public toilets, community centres, housing and leisure services do not discriminate against trans people. In addition, Greens have called on government to introduce new legislation to enshrine
the rights of trans people and their access to services.
Green Party Councillor Max Morris said: “In recent years, trans and non-binary people have been subjected to a manufactured moral panic whipped up by both the right wing press and Labour and Conservative governments. The Green Party stands in full solidarity with the trans community
and will be doing all we can to ensure that they can continue to have full and fair access to services.”
In 2022, Green Councillors secured cross-party support for a Council motion to make Oxford a truly trans-inclusive city.
