All the news on his speech seems to be about HS2 but I think that this is important too.

    It’s simple, gender can be changed but sex cannot. End of story, anyone who argues otherwise is objectively wrong.

      So transphobes can just ignore gender as a concept and treat sex as all there is and you can’t call them out because they are “technically correct”?

      You’re not technically wrong, but it’s a nuanced issue and people should treat it as such rather than black and white.

      Sunak saying “no one can change sex” without any qualifying statements is just designed to inflame and divide people.

        It’s designed to offer a firm take on the nuanced issue. A lot of people feel like they are tired of being told they are crazy (on both sides).

        It feels like if someone (self) inserts gender where he says sex here, they are looking for reasons to be upset.
