The Labour government unveiled a LGBTQ+ Action Plan today, with the intention of 'trigger' talks about taking over the responsibility of determining how people change their gender. However, Labour's step in conjunction with Welsh nationalists Plaid Cymru is likely to spark a tense debate with Tory ministers in London. They are already preparing for court action with Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon over a statute limiting the age at which individuals can change gender from 18 to 16. Altaf Hussain, the Welsh Conservative shadow minister for equalities, said: "While I agree that more needs to be done to assist LGBTQ+ people, the further devolution of powers is not the answer."
