Women don’t want ‘woke’ gender-neutral toilets, Tory peer claims

Gender-neutral toilets brought in by “woke” local authorities and public bodies make women feel uncomfortable and should be replaced with single-sex facilities, a Tory peer has said.

Conservative backbencher Lord Lucas was raising concerns over the increase of gender-neutral facilities when the peer said women should not have to share public toilets because “there are a number of very strange men in this world”.

The peer told a House of Lords debate that half of all toilets and changing rooms in public buildings should be exclusively for women.

Revealing he had been flashed at, the Lord said women also did want to be around “overt male sexual behaviours”.

The Tory peer warned single-sex facilities were being taken away from women “without their consent, without their consultation”, and the Lord put blame on “woke administrators of public institutions”.

The Government should legislate to ensure publicly-funded organisations provided women with the toilet and changing facilities required, said Lord Lucas as he described the current situation as “a serious firefight”.

Lord Lucas made his remarks during a debate he had secured in the House of Lords where he pressed for at least half of communal facilities in public buildings to be reserved for women only.
