I bet there will be a load of lags in Scottish prisons suddenly deciding that he now identifies as a woman and applying for a 'room' here.

Is this something else receiving funding from the Police budget.

I read 'Community Custody unit' and thought is the word jail/prison not seen as 'on message' these days? They are in the custody of the Scottish Prison Service.They are in their 'care' for committing criminal offences with a seriousness or a history of offending,sufficient to serve time. And then I read that the community and safety minister is talking about a gender specific and trauma informed approach to reintegration into their communities and it all made more sense!
