What will the Supreme Court ruling change?
The UK Supreme Court has unanimously and unambiguously backed the argument that the definition of a woman in the Equality Act should be based on biological sex.
Reading out the ruling, Lord Hodge cautioned that it should not be taken as a triumph for one group in society over another.
But there were scenes of jubilation for women’s campaigners outside the Supreme Court.
Tearful hugs were exchanged and a bottle of champagne was cracked open.
The fact someone had thought to bring one along underlines that it was potentially on the cards, but For Women Scotland (FWS) still seemed shocked by the scale of their victory.
