It's fair game, Labour still don't know what a woman is.

Sunak was being truthful; SKS couldn't define a woman (of course he could, he's married to one, but he wouldn't define it) and then he rowed back some time later and said 1 in 1000 women could have a penis. So if anybody was wrong today it was SKS because he weaponised the mother being in attendance.
It was an insensitive statement from Sunak, given that Starmer had paid tribute to Brianna's mother moments before. Irrelevant of your opinions on the trans community, more empathy towards a parent who had just lost a child was neccessary. He should apologise, but a public apology isn't needed, a private one to Mrs Ghey is more appropriate.
Why should he apologise, either publicly or privately?
This wasn't a jibe about transgenders, it was a jibe about SKS not being willing to define a woman, and then later saying that 0.01% of women have penises. It was SKS who then connected it with the dead person's mother.
If anybody should be apologising it is SKS, as he turned the tragic death into a political rebuttal/petulant rant.
the point is that starmer acknowledges the gender identity of trans women (who are an extremely small minority of people) and sunak with his fellow tories happen to think that's very funny... plenty of tories want gender recognition for trans people done away with entirely because they do not believe in being trans for ideological reasons
as i say this attitude to trans people is not all that different to that of brianna ghey's murderers. they'll be as "polite" and "respectful" as they need to be until they have them where they want them... and then have the gall to lecture others about being "civil". occasionally the mask slips and you get jibes like this or nastier ones about "chicks with ***" or whatever. we have all encountered it and it isn't funny or clever... it's pure bigotry toward a vulnerable maligned and very small group of people.. expressed by people who like to think of themselves as respectable and "decent".
well there's nothing decent about it. some of us see right through it!
it isn't the first time sunak has said it and i imagine most trans people and their loved ones are well aware of his attitude. i doubt very much that she was shocked...
brianna ghey's father has asked for an apology but with greatest respect to him i don't see the point... an apology is valueless if it isn't sincere and sunak isn't sincere about anything at all. he's an empty shell that wears the skin of a person.
