PM lacks moral courage on trans stance, says Badenoch
Briefly

During the latest Prime Minister's Questions, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch accused Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer of lacking 'moral courage' on transgender issues after a Supreme Court ruling clarified the legal definition of a woman. Badenoch asserted that Starmer needed to take a firmer stance, likening him to a 'weather vane.' Starmer has shifted his views on transgender women, stating they are women, while his spokesperson has now distinguished between biological and transgender women. Badenoch pressed Starmer on whether he would apologize to MP Rosie Duffield for her treatment in Labour, but he emphasized dignity and respect in his response.
