A Sorry Tale: No Apology From Prime Minister For Trans Jibe

By Bloomberg

Rishi Sunak has refused to apologise for his joke about Keir Starmer’s stance on gender identity, made during Prime Minister’s Questions when the mother of murdered transgender teenager Brianna Ghey was present. Our UK government editor Stuart Biggs discusses how damaging this moment is for Sunak, and what voters may remember from this political week. Lizzy Burden reports on Labour backtracking on its £28 billion green spending pledge and what it could mean for the party. Plus: why equal pay for ethnic minority workers should be an election issue. We speak to Dianne Greyson, founder of the Ethnicity Pay Gap Campaign about the legal changes she’s seeking from politicians. Hosted by Stephen Carroll.
