Nurse Sandie Peggie is taking her nursing union to an employment tribunal, her second such case, according to multiple reports. Peggie, a transgender nurse, alleges that the union failed to support her during an earlier dispute involving her employment at NHS Fife.
The outlets describe the claim as centred on what Peggie says was inadequate union backing after she was suspended by NHS Fife. The Evening Standard and other coverage frame the case as part of a broader “trans row,” while additional pieces from The Scotsman also note that the tribunal follows an earlier employment-related matter and that the proceedings are ongoing.
While the reports emphasize different angles—some present the case as a live update process or focus on the “trans” dimension—sources broadly agree on the core issue: Peggie brings the tribunal against her union, arguing it did not provide the support she expected during the NHS Fife suspension.
