Transgender dispute splits Stonewall

By Greg Hurst, The Times: Prominent supporters have split from Stonewall, the gay rights charity, in protest over its transgender stance.

Jamie Wallace and Ian McDowell married at Rutherglen United Reformed Church near Glasgow – one of the few denominations to have accepted the redefinition of marriage.
