flag Norfolk Police face backlash for using self-identified gender in crime records, sparking national debate over data accuracy and women's safety.

flag Norfolk Constabulary faces criticism for recording suspects’ gender based on self-identification rather than biological sex, a practice critics say distorts crime data and endangers women and girls. flag The force uses self-identified gender in most cases while keeping alias records, but women’s rights groups argue this risks misclassifying male offenders and conflicts with recent UK legal rulings affirming gender as biological. flag The controversy is part of a national debate sparked by a Supreme Court decision and a tribunal finding that female nurses faced harassment sharing changing rooms with male colleagues who identify as women. flag Norfolk Police have not changed their policy despite growing legal and public pressure.
