Party denies ‘gender-critical’ group’s claims that refusal of a conference stand was a ‘political judgment’

A debate continues to rage within Labour over what approach the party should take on gender issues. Boris Johnson also sought to inflame the issue by suggesting that Labour leader Keir Starmer “struggled to define what a woman was”.
