Am just watching it again and it’s astonishing that Owen Jones got fucked up by a child in argument. That guy is like 18-20. And his arguments aren’t that strong tbh. Jones is nearly 40. He’s been in public life for over a decade. And he doesn’t realise he’s been owned by a boy.

It wasn’t false though. There were very questionable materials about sexual activity and gender in schools. The head of Ofsted said that was happening. There were several reports of it. So that’s not true.

This is becoming crazy. Someone who is biologically male cannot be a mother. Legally that’s the case. Caitlyn Jenner still identifies and recognises she’s her children’s father. Your argument only works if you’re equating adoptive mothers with people who are biologically male.
