Where does the British public stand on transgender rights? Here’s a summary of the findings of our new research

yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…
Attitudes to trans rights are split by age, gender and politics…

Tended to be more pro trans rights: Women, 18-49 year olds, Labour, Lib Dem and Remain voters

Tended to be more anti trans rights: Men, 50+ year olds, Conservative and Leave voters

yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…
Brits support trans people’s right to identify as they like (50% to 27%), though some do so without necessarily agreeing with those new labels. Brits do, however, think a doctor should still be required in the legal process of changing gender (63% to 16%) yougov.co.uk/topics/politic…

THREAD/ Why won't Britons wear face masks to stop coronavirus?

We knew Britons were less likely to wear face masks than other nationalities, and now we know why. Our new study asked Britons why they have been refusing to don facial protection…

yougov.co.uk/topics/health/…
The most common reasons people who never wear masks gave us for not doing so are…

They don’t feel they need to – 40%
No-one’s making them wear a mask – 22%
They’re staying home – 27%

Only a tiny fraction mentioned issues like civil liberties

yougov.co.uk/topics/health/… Image
Perhaps the simple reason mask usage isn’t higher in the UK is because govt hasn’t been encouraging people to wear them: most Brits who don't wear face masks think masks are good for public health (51%), and would support making them compulsory (51-83%).
