country’s new progressive transgender laws. “It is easier to change your legal gender than to get a driving licence,” said Alberto Núñez Feijóo, tipped to become Spain’s next prime minister after his Popular Party (PP) scored a series of victories in last month’s local and regional elections.

The results prompted Left-wing prime minister Pedro Sánchez to dissolve parliament. According to the transgender law introduced this year by Mr Sánchez’s coalition, anyone from the age of 16 is free to change their official gender, and children from the age of 12 can do with court approval. “This law is an attack against children, against parental custody and common sense,” Mr Feijóo said in an interview on radio station Onda Cero.

But the reform was eventually pushed through by equality minister Irene Montero of the hard-Left Podemos party. Mr Feijóo said a government led by him would be a slimmed-down affair with around 13 ministries compared to the current 22, and he singled out equality as a department that could be slotted into another ministry.
