Does anyone know if there's any news on this? Last I heard MNHQ had contacted JC's 'people' but not had a response.

To be fair in this current climate I don't think any politician would be daft enough to do a webchat on a specific issues as divisive and heated as this.
Whatever he said either the TRAs would be all over it, accusing him of hateful transphobic bigotry or the feminists would be all over it calling him misogynistic.

Thought that was obvious. We are the wrong demographic

Really? I've never seen as much blind "Labour Love" as I do on MN!

And a fair proportion of that is shared with JC.

He doesn’t need to talk to MN. He probably thinks we all just vote as our husbands tell us to.

Pato he was asked to do one specifically about self ID, as a single issue chat following his announcement on to that he welcomed a discussion with women about it.

If he does not stand behind this then it needs to go to National press. Women have the right to know that he sees them as unworthy of having a voice or opinion, their rights and safety are of no interest to him or Momentum and the only women he plans to interact with are those who are biologically men. Then we all know where we stand and can vote accordingly.

He already did one.

I got excited then and thought it was actually going to happen

We may ask difficult questions about Labour and transwomen. He won't be able to answer them without saying he's throwing us under a bus.

We've gone from ford-focus-driving mumsy Middle Englanders ready to be patronised about biscuit preferences to bigoted old witches whose thoughts are too dangerous and subversive to be heard

Think it's probably a promotion
