Comment on Rishi Sunak says people ‘can’t be any sex they want to be’ in new swipe at trans community

I need someone to make that meme of Mr Bean looking over that dude’s shoulder with Mr. Bean labeled as Sunak and the other dude as the American GQP.

I’m not sure I understand why the Tories insist on taking leaves straight out of the US ultra hard right Maga playbook on these things. This is one of those areas where the UK should be separating themselves away from what we’re dealing with in the US. Instead, it seems as if y’all Brits are really digging your heels in on trans issues when there are so many other issues on the agenda (this is the case in the US as well, so trust, I can fully appreciate the frustration).

From my best understanding, this is Sunak’s appeal towards hoping that he and all the Tories are run out of office during your next general election, but dang! This has got to be the most asinine take I’ve seen…since yesterday (things are perfectly inane in the US government at the moment).
