For the first time since the Scottish Parliament was opened in 1999 and the northern nation in the kingdom was granted almost complete autonomy in the field of internal legislation, the central government in London intervened and prevented the passage of a law.
The reason: the law passed by the local parliament will allow transgender people from the age of 16 to officially change their gender without a medical diagnosis to recommend and with almost no minimum transition period.
The official reason for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's unprecedented step is that the law - which will now be invalidated because it will not reach King Charles for official signature - will discriminate against the rest of the subjects in the kingdom and will in fact lead to "transgender tourism" and in fact will make it so that people undergoing gender reassignment in Scotland will effectively have two genders, according to their position in the kingdom.
In Scotland they promised that they will continue to fight for the move, but it is not clear how they will do it in the form of legislation.
