Brexit supporter observes.
In 2008, the BBC ran an article with the headline “Britons 'richer than Americans'”. Analysis from Oxford Economics found GDP per capita that year was to be £250 higher this side of the pond. Fast forward to today, and the average Brit is 40% poorer than the average American.

Important point in an excellent thread.
The ambiguity that the Supreme Court resolved was whether a GRC makes a difference for the purposes of the single-sex exceptions. Since most service providers were operating self-ID policies and not GRC-based policies, they were always acting unlawfully.
