Should social media users have to verify their real identity to post?
The verdict
Yes won comfortably, yet its two most-respected arguments were hedged: one admitted being “on the fence”, the other wanted an alias. The No case, built on distrust of the state, was blunter and drew the strongest respect.

Should trans women be allowed to use women’s toilets and changing rooms?
The verdict
Voters overwhelmingly backed biological-sex access, with one No voter telling the other side: “Use the gents lads and leave the ladies in peace.” Yes voters answered that the issue is “culture war nonsense designed to deflect attention”.

Does the UK government give too much priority to minority groups at the expense of the majority?
The verdict
Yes won comfortably, its best-rated case being about queues and rents rather than identity, while the No side answered with one flat denial: “There is literally no evidence whatsoever to support this idea.”
