I believe this is incorrect. No party has said they have any intention of removing "gender reassignment" as a protected characteristic from the Equality Act. This law provides protection and offers legal recourse from being discriminated against by employers, service providers, and so on. Which, to cover those individuals with this characteristic, is the most reasonable consensus interpretation of "trans rights".
