I know it's a Mail link but I've not seen it up anywhere else yet:

Rishi Sunak wades into trans debate saying 'biological sex matters'
mol.im/a/11707375

Glad to see him taking a clear position.

👏👏

He's saying it for votes though not because he cares about women's rights.

He cares about his legacy and not getting the biggest kicking at the polls in history

Yes. Which begs the question: WTAF, Starmer?

Nice one Rishi, thank you.

Nice one.

Better than Labour on this

ProfessorLayton1 · 02/02/2023 21:59

Wow.. he did not hesitate. 👏🏻👏🏻

ProfessorLayton1 · 02/02/2023 21:59

Biological sex matters ... he says !

KangarooKenny · 02/02/2023 22:01

Hopefully others will follow him.

PennyToffee · 02/02/2023 22:02

What fools you are. You honestly think Rishi gives a shit about this?

They have spin doctors for this very reason.

Most politicians say most things for votes. But as far as I'm concerned, the more politicians say it, the better. Keir Starmer clearly doesn't think saying it would win him votes, otherwise he'd be saying it too. I seriously doubt any of these politicians genuinely believe TWAW. No doubt they all know full well what a woman is 'for relationship purposes'.

borntobequiet · 02/02/2023 22:02

Well of course he says this. It’s a gift when everything else is going to shit for him.

If that’s true then good - they understand the strength of feeling about this issue.

At last someone knows what a woman is! Finally

Sunak: "I know what a woman is – an adult human female"

And so do all the other parties who think sex offenders matter and the only women worth giving a shit about are the ones with penises.

My vote will go to the party least dangerous to women's sex based rights.

So? Better that Starmer and Nicola who don’t give a shit about woman. He, at least, has had the courage to say this, unlike the other two who are happy to throw women under the bus

Possibly.

But it shows the tide is turning.

About time.

Yeah, but I'd rather that than a politician who knows that the TWAW argument is nonsense but hasn't got the bottle to say so.

Show quote history

Of course they do. The other parties just care about preserving lies more. No idea why pp thinks they don’t do spin.

Stopsnowing · 02/02/2023 22:04

I don’t care why he is saying it. The more it is said the better and the harder it will be for others to fudge the issue.

Fairislefandango · 02/02/2023 22:04

What fools you are. You honestly think Rishi gives a shit about this?

As far as the protection of women's rights is concerned? God no,of course not. But I bet he does believe it. They all do really. And the more people who admit that, the better, whatever their motives.

Blinis · 02/02/2023 22:07

every man I know with school age daughters is now aware that this issue is a big deal.

Rishi is saying what normal men say. Why Starmer can’t say it too is mind boggling. It’s totally ok for them to agree with each other on this. Then the GE won’t be about it!!

Sarah2891 · 02/02/2023 22:07

I agree, he might not care about it but I'm sure he fully believes it.
