It's genuinely insane that Ann Widdecombe (a socially conservative religious zealot) sensibly opposed this idea because she opposes trans women being raped.
Labour MP Jonathon Pinder called her 'woke'.
For opposing rape.

reform don't think trans women should be put in men's prisons bcos we're at high risk of rape.
labour changed the rules almost immediately after the election so that we are placed in men's prisons.
other than that i think their policies are identical.
