“Dr David Mackereth has worked for 26 years as an NHS doctor but was told he could not be employed as a Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) disability assessor if he refused to identify patients as being of a sex that they did not see themselves as.”

This looks like an example of the all too common phenomenon of saying or writing the exact opposite of what is meant. I think DID NOT should be left out. Apparently he was refusing to identify patients as being of a sex they DID see themselves as. At least in that sentence the correct term of sex was used rather than the incorrect term of gender. A lot of what I see written now cannot be simply read, it must be INTERPRETED to figure out what the writer was trying to write but in some cases I cannot even be sure the writer knew what he or she was attempting to convey.
