"A transgender woman has received a barrage of transphobic comments after declaring she will run to be the Women's Officer for the National Union of Students.
23-year-old Lancaster University Maths student Anna Lee announced her campaign this week – pledging to stand to the role, which is open to anyone who self-identifies as female.
The student, who previously helped run her university's feminist society and has sat on the NUS Women's Committee, says she wants to break a "glass ceiling" by running for the women-only role."
