Exciting times in the Labour Party, as everything is now up for debate. Backing Rebecca Long-Bailey's stance on trans identity, deputy leader hopeful Dawn Butler, in an interview yesterday morning, says that "a child is born without sex". 

Other debates we can expect soon, as the leadership contest heats up…Is the earth round or flat? Do we have two legs or four?…or an indeterminate number which we decide on later, in line with our sense of our inner pedality? And arse and elbow – which is the bendy bit halfway down our arm, and which is the bit we sit on?
