Original Note:
https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/overarching-guides/magistrates-court/item/imposition-of-community-and-custodial-sentences-overarching-guideline/ This document calls for a "pre-sentence report" to guide sentencing, and says it's necessary for a defendant who is transgender or from an ethnic/cultural/religious minority. So while it doesn't explicitly demand different sentences, it calls for special rules for some groups.
