    Wait what if the building is a small shop that has a singular room with a toilet and sink in it? The little bookstore near my house only has 1 water closet. Those type of stores will be illegal to build from now on?

      That would be a ‘universal’ toilet and thus allowed.

      According to ministers, 81% agreed with the intention for separate single-sex toilet facilities in a consultation on the proposals, while 82% also agreed with the intention to provide “universal” toilets – a self-contained, and a fully enclosed toilet room with a wash hand basin for individual use – where space allows.

        God these people are fucking stupid.

        That’s a gender neutral bathroom.

        It doesn’t mean there’s a stripper pole and a doctor handing out hormones.

        What boggles me is that the latter “universal toilet” is what most conservatives ferociously battled when it is called a “gender neutral bathroom”, like disabled bathrooms and residential ones. Face=palm.
