      Idk it’s vague, just says this:

      More than 50 countries and US states have been removed from a list of jurisdictions regarded as having sufficiently robust processes for recognising gender.

      Implied 50 entire countries to me but idk

          I don’t think there are 30+ whole countries with specific states/province laws on gender self ID. All the lists on self ID I’m seeing only include the US, Canada, Australia, and Mexico for that. And there’s only 25 federations in the world, afaik it’s pretty hard for unitary states to have subdivisional laws like that

          I took “insufficiently robust processes for recognising gender” as more than just self-ID. But maybe “50 countries and US states” just means “50 jurisdictions, including 20 whole countries and 30 individual states/provinces,” Daily Mail is bound to suck at phrasing
