Fair play to her. JHB isn't taking any nonsense despite Ellie Reeves best attempts to feed her a steaming great pile of codswallop.

JHB is correct, politicians arent being really clear about this at all.

If TWAW, they should be in womens facilities, if not, why are they getting female birth certificates and passports?

The GRA together with the EqA is a confusing mess that politicians arent solving by saying 'we need less heat and more light'.

As an aside, im putting 'we need less heat and more light' on my political bingo card this year. If every politician doesn't say it at least three times, im going to be disappointing.

Oh dear. 😂

Stammer, waffle, squirrel, waffle.

And yes 'less heat' is code for 'stop talking about this please cos it's too difficult!'

JHB being really clear once again.

ZuttZeVootEeeVo · 16/01/2024 20:04

Its interesting that JHB says that Labour press officers dont like her bringing this up?

AvacadoFieldsForever · 16/01/2024 20:04

“We’ve been really clear” is on my bingo card for 2024 too.

Well handled by JHB.

As well as "take the heat out of the debate."

This was last March though, so perhaps Ellie has remembered her GCSE Biology since.

Thanks. I didn't know that. Timing context is always important.

That has really cheered me up.

TinderTime · 16/01/2024 20:43

Omg! I cheered at this. What a wonderful interviewer! HE! HE!!

That poor Labour woman just didn't have an answer!

Fan fucking tastic!!

I watched it several times! We need to see more of this on interviews.

Take the heat out of it! NO! We need to be putting more heat on it!

TheFutureMrsWolowitz · 16/01/2024 20:48

TBH I find it fucking depressing that it is so fucking obvious but apparently right wing and subversive to say so.

Less heat, more light would be fine if they ever actually got to the second part.

TheFutureMrsWolowitz · 16/01/2024 20:54

Oh these people. These enablers and hand maidens. These cowards. Such cowards. It's literally beyond my understanding.

Helleofabore · 16/01/2024 20:55

JHB is very clear on this issue and has been for a long while. I remember this interview back in March last year.

AuntMunca · 16/01/2024 21:55

I seem to remember this interview coming in the wake of the Annelise Dodds International Women's Day debacle on Woman's Hour. She was asked what a woman was and replied with some incoherent waffle.

PriOn1 · 16/01/2024 22:02

No heat at all in JHBs tone. She’s simply very clear. That kind of clarity is what I need to aim for, I think. Feeling afraid to say it and thus feeling on the back foot is one of my major downfalls.
