Scotland forged ahead of the UK because of their more progressive policies on intersex equality. The Equality Network, Scotland’s national lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) equality and human rights charity, has been rated the best country in Europe for LGBTI legal equality. According to ILGA-Europe’s annual review of LGBTI equality and human rights laws across the continent, published May 10, Scotland now comes ahead of the rest of the UK and Europe in the legal protections offered to LGBTI people.
