All new buildings open to the public will have to include single-sex male and
female lavatories under plans announced by Kemi Badenoch.

Draft guidance published on Monday aims to protect the privacy of women
and elderly individuals and would apply to all non-residential buildings.

Ms Badenoch, the Minister for Women and Equalities, stated that the
Government must step in when “common sense disappears,” following a rise
in WOKE businesses offering gender-neutral toilets without separate single-sex

The proposed policy would mean a new supermarket, shop or restaurant
should have separate single-sex toilets for men and women at a minimum.

Top Comment: “Transgender individuals should have privacy. The signage on
the door should clearly indicate what to expect.” But the trouble is they think
we believe them when they claim to be women and therefore they feel
entitled to use female only spaces. The legislation needs to be clear. Only
biological females are females, and only females can use women’s spaces.

Government getting involved in private businesses and telling them what they can and can’t put in their buildings, how very authoritarian

Telling companies they’re not allowed to have neutral toilets is going to stop that is it?

How easy it is for people to give full control to overreaching governments as long as it’s ‘benefitting’ them

Would you call adhering to government laws in Health and Safety authoritarian?

Nope there is nothing to say they cant provide a neutral toilet, in fact it would be discriminatory to say the cannot have one, what they can no longer do is turn the women's toilet into a neutral toilet while leaving the men's for the men.....

Rishi Sunak’s government has distanced itself from the idea of a “Lavatory Tsar” after it was mocked for its new public toilets strategy.

Mr Sunak and his equalities minister Kemi Badenoch were ridiculed following a report that the government was planning to introduce a toilets commissioner to address the closure of public toilets.

But it is understood that the plan is not being considered. Although it was discussed in parliament after being raised by a Labour MP, it was rejected by the government amid fears that it would increase bureaucracy.....

I was thinking that this could increase expensive red-tape for small businesses. A lot of cafes and the like have single-lockable toilets.

This only relates to new buildings at the moment.

This guy explains it quite well:
