Overview

  • Angela Howard says the British Druid Order revoked her membership and blocked her from training materials after she argued against trans women in single-sex spaces
  • She claims the Pagan Federation deleted her comments on its support statement for trans people and barred her from its Facebook page following her gender-critical posts
  • The dispute followed an April Supreme Court ruling that defined “woman” under equality laws by biological sex rather than acquired gender
  • Howard has lodged formal grievances alleging defamation and breaches of conduct, prompting both organisations to confirm active reviews
  • A self-described second-generation witch, Howard cites her experience of sexual assault by a trans-identified man and advocates for protected women’s spaces and free expression
