Election 2024: Conservatives on 'biological sex', Labour on defence

BBC Radio 4 - Today, Election 2024: Conservatives on 'biological sex', Labour on defence

Tory Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch and Labour Shadow Defence Secretary John Healey.

Conservative cabinet minister Kemi Badenoch sets out plans to rewrite the Equality Act to define the protected characteristic of sex as ‘biological sex’. Labour's shadow defence secretary John Healey tells Justin Webb that the nuclear deterrent is 'the bedrock of our national security'. Former Leeds Rhinos and England Rugby League captain Jamie Peacock pays tribute to his friend and former teammate Rob Burrow who has died aged 41. He was diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND) in 2019. And a new AI tool which can rule out heart attacks preventing hospital admissions.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
