Rishi Sunak provoked outrage with his comment about the “definition of a woman” in the Commons, as the mother of murdered trans teenager Brianna Ghey visited Parliament.

The Prime Minister clashed with Sir Keir Starmer over the continuing trans debate at PMQs as Esther Ghey was due to appear in the public gallery just four days after her 16-year-old daughter’s killers were jailed for life.

Sunak accused the opposition leader of being incapable of “defining a woman” and that it was one of a number of issues on which he had performed a U-turn.

Brianna’s father Peter Spooner demanded an apology, saying he was “disgusted” with Mr Sunak, before branding the comments “degrading” and “absolutely dehumanising”.

TalkTV's Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by human rights activist Peter Tatchell to discuss the Prime Minister's comments.

Julia asks: “Why should the ability to debate in politics be affected by a grieving mother?”
