The Spanish Supreme Court has sentenced Spain's chief prosecutor Alvaro Garcia Ortiz to be barred from public office for two years for the crime of leaking confidential information. He has also been ordered to pay fines totalling 7,200 ($8,300) and ordered to pay 10,000 ($11,530) in compensation to businessman Alberto Gonzalez Amador, who has been prosecuted for tax fraud. Ortiz is the partner of Isabel Diaz Ayuso, the premier of the Madrid region, from the conservative Popular Party (PP).

With 160,000 students in the district, that means a measly 0.03% will be removed from the classroom when certain topics are discussed.

Transgender women will no longer be able to play in women's football in England, and this policy will be implemented from 1 June 2025.

The ruling has been interpreted to mean that trans women can be excluded from women-only spaces like toilets and changing rooms.

The relentless demonisation of trans people has led us straight to a place where every choice is impossible, using words that recall the darkest days of prejudice.

The fragility of rights that scares many within the community, where the unanimous ruling has sent shock waves and ignited fears reminiscent of past violence against transgender individuals.
