[FlowersAndHerts]

"Columnist Sarah Vine, former trade negotiator Jason Hunter, Conservative MP Bernard Jenkin and writer Maya Goodfellow join Jo Coburn. They discuss the ongoing Brexit negotiations and look at the debate on transgender rights."

Where's that then?

Will I have a stroke?

They're still on Brexit...!

We're off.....

Yay! Kathleen Stock

Drew-Ashlyn Cunningham, make-up artist and vlogger, in a short film promoting self ID.

You don't identify as a woman. You ARE a woman.

Missed the first part- why can't Drew get a GRC as it currently stands?

Drew "thinks and looks like" a woman, so she shouldn't be excluded from women only spaces......

Women are more than makeup

I don't think Drew can be bothered.......

"the way I think is more like a woman".

Statements like this baffle me.

"Feminism is all about equality for everyone" sigh....... silly Drew

Costly - £140? How much is a passport these days?

THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING

I could feel Kathleen Stock's frustration there. She is excellent though!

Gah! They always give the emotional TRA the last word!

Well that was a bit rubbish.

The TRA girl just came across as being very... young.

'The trans lobby...is not some shadowy organisation' - omg the IRONY of that bearing in mind the post about the 'we're still here' conference.

Nope - Kathleen Stock's face at the end (when Maya whatsit was insisting that entry into prisons could be screened to prevent issues - just after discussion about Karen White) definitely had the last word there - it said it all!

(I even used the word girl without thinking. Apologies - young woman.)

Producer to presenter: "Let the Brexit discussion roll on so we only have a few minutes to talk about this"

Who was the man who spoke?
