JK Rowling has slammed Sir Keir Starmer as she accuses him of misrepresenting equalities law, claiming Labour can "no longer be counted on to defend women's rights".
This comes after the Labour leader told The Times that "trans women are women" according to statute in the UK, and called for a more "considered, respectful, tolerant debate" about gender.
Asked to define what a woman is, Sir Keir told the publication: “A woman is a female adult, and in addition to that trans women are women, and that is not just my view – that is actually the law.”
