Kemi Badenoch demanded that Keir Starmer apologize to women after he finally spoke out on the Supreme Court's biological sex ruling, which declared that a woman is an adult female. She also urged him to apologize to MP Rosie Duffield, who was hounded out of Labour for advocating for female-only spaces, and to crack down on trans activists who defaced Westminster statues in protest against the judgment.

JK Rowling praised Kemi Badenoch for offering solidarity to women defending their rights after the Supreme Court's gender ruling. Rowling found it "astounding" that Badenoch was the only UK political leader vocal in her support, while Keir Starmer remains silent on the issue. The Prime Minister has been facing pressure to comment publicly on the ruling, and Sir Keir is expected to make a statement to the Commons when it returns from recess tomorrow.

According to a poll by More in Common, Nigel Farage is as likely as Sir Keir Starmer to become the next Prime Minister after the next election, with both receiving 13% of the vote. The survey also found that Reform UK has pushed the Conservatives into third place, and voters are split between various Conservative leaders for who they think will be PM in four years, with 5% backing Kemi Badenoch.

Angela Rayner faced criticism over her plan to grant more powers to unions, despite failing to stand up to striking bin workers in Birmingham. The strikes, which have been ongoing since March 11, have been prolonged by union members who rejected a council proposal to end the crisis. The situation has led Tory leader Kemi Badenoch to warn that unions now run the country, and Rayner's plan for a workers' rights law will hand even more powers to them. Unite general secretary Sharon Graham also warned of the potential for the strike to spread to other areas if councils continue to make low-paid workers pay the cost of their decisions.
