The former barrister and Shadow Justice Secretary reportedly made the comments on 22 September, after Labour backbencher Rosie Duffield urged the leader to meet her and other female Labour MPs to discuss the party’s policy on transgender issues.
According to reports, “the implementation of the Equality Act, including the single-sex exemption which allows the provision of women-only spaces” will not change.
A spokesman said the law “rightly assumes the inclusion of trans women, except in specific circumstances”, normally thought to include prisons and refuges.
The Canterbury MP also confirmed she will not attend Labour’s annual conference, which takes place 25-29 September, due to her transphobic views.
