Male Police can strip search a female.

[motorbiking]

If they attempt it in a police van or other remote area.

If the opposite sex is present.

If there is no explanation as to why you are being searched.

Regardless - there will be no trans men present when a woman is stripped naked - ever.

Please show this right, in law.

A trans man is a person born a woman, who has transitioned to become a man - you muppet.

...or them/they.

Pronouns. Do not change your sex.

The person being searched can refuse, as can the person doing the searching, better ask them what they prefer.

It was a joke. Gentiles/Jews

some of us got it

On the grounds that the search rules are not being adhered to? I'm guessing the senior officer in charge will make sure that the rules are being followed. If not, the search will not continue.

So when the senior officer in charge has made sure that the rules are being followed, the search will continue?

Irrespective, there is not a chance in hell that a person born as a man with be able to intimately search a woman. Never in a million years boyo.

The original post was was about male (or male-identified) police can search a woman, but that's beside the point about whether anybody can refuse to be searched.

No, they are warned it might not look good in court. Nothing more.

There seems to be a difference of opinion on that. I don't claim to know.

Unless the person being searched refuses. They are then warned that it could harm their case further down the line.

There have been no complaints about trans officers searching women by force. It is a non issue.

corrected for you

Remember as well, that the woman must be asked who they are more comfortable with carrying out the search. It really is a non issue.

The trolls are confused with the difference between a strip search, exposed intimate search and an Intimate search (physical). The only one you have the power to refuse is a physical intimate search. The police have the power to forcibly strip search you and they frequently do.

If you want some examples, Google Child Q or Dr Konstancja Duff. both were strip searched, naked without their consent. Dr Duff received compensation, not because the search was unlawful, but because the officers abused her during the search.

Met apologises to woman for ‘sexist, derogatory’ language in strip-search

Force pays compensation to Dr Konstancja Duff for language used after CCTV captures officers’ comments

Here s a simple flow chart that shows what happens:

Police have a statuary power to search, like the power of arrest. There are actually a few different laws giving them this power. The main one is https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1984/60/contents. known as PACE.

You have just as much ability/power to refuse a search or strip search as you do to refuse being arrested.

As long as there are grounds for a search - yes.

Correct. A man will never be allowed to strip search a woman under current law.
