//Rishi Sunak has intervened in a deepening row between Kemi Badenoch and David Tennant over LGBTQ+ rights, appearing to brand the actor “the problem”.

The Doctor Who star said he wished the women and equalities minister would “shut up” and suggested he hoped for a world in which she “doesn’t exist anymore”, while she fired back that he was a “bigot”.

The prime minister waded in on the spat on Wednesday morning, writing on X, formerly Twitter: “Freedom of speech is the most powerful feature of our democracy. If you’re calling for women to shut up and wishing they didn’t exist, you are the problem.”//

Why should Kemi Badenoch and other women standing up for women's rights shut up?   I used to like David Tennant.

Me, too.

He's certainly become 'a' problem. But as he and his wife have 'transed' their child, I don't suppose that is a surprise.

HTF do you "trans" a child, it's a child FGS! You mean he's decided to arbitrarily force a sex change on his kid? Should be in jail for child abuse.

I took it to mean that he wished that the role of an 'Equalities Minister' didn't exist, because the role was superfluous, rather than it being aimed at the Minister personally. 

If Mr Tennent clarifies his statement, I expect that's what he will confirm - that his point was misunderstood. 

just wondering how it is that so many celebrities have kids that are trans or non-binary. i mean, what would be the odds?

can someone tell me what "transing" a child means.

It means exactly what you posted, TTT.

It's what parents suffering from Transhausen Syndrome do to their children.

ah - Tennant has already tried to 'reverse-ferret' his way out of the comments; unfortunately, if you follow him on X/twitter,etc. oyou will see exactly what his position is, and why.

I very much enjoyed Tennant's 'Hamlet', but other than that I have had little time for him.  I have less now.

14:10 but surely it can't be legal to chop a child about at the whim of a mental case parent.

I don't get anywhere near twitface etc.

Still the best Doctor Who imo, though he's now regenerated into someone I can have no respect for.

Andy Hughes, he said he wishes the women and the minister would shut up.

Fighting publicly on social media is in my view not what senior politicians should be doing. They are playing with fire, trying to stoke culture wars rather than working to improve society. Disgraceful.

Tenants the problem.  Maybe he should read the room or wave goodbye to the rest of his career.  Mind you I expect the woke BBC are lapping it up.

 

//Fighting publicly on social media is in my view not what senior politicians should be doing. //

I actually agree with you.

However, that is where the young are, they dont watch "normal" tv.  So should that younger voter base be ignored?

I suspect politicians of all hues would gladly get shot of SM, but that ship sailed long ago.

Thankfully, following the Cass Report, there has been a wholesale tightening-up of the prescription of puberty-blockers to children. Hopefully, this will be followed up by legislation to curb the frankenstein operations currently available; and the rolling back of the pernicious 'Trans-movements' gains in invading women's spaces and rights.

Atheist, if you think Sunak is stoking culture wars you've got the wrong bloke.  This whole trans argument is an absurdity that makes fools of all who support it.

Naomi, I was referring to senior politicians scrapping on social media. Does Sunak do that? Anyway, do you perhaps agree that such scrapping is not a good thing?

Atheist - Kemi Badenoch had her rebuttal reported by the newspapers.

I don't know if Sunak responded on X/Twitter or it has reported on there. I haven't seen it in my X/Twitter feeds.

jack, I'm not surprised. Is that relevant to my distaste for poiticians post on SM? No posts, no newspaper reports.
