Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch has doubled down on her remarks that Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer "doesn't have the balls" to air his true views on gender, following a fiery Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday.
Debating the Supreme Court ruling on biological women, Badenoch grilled the PM on whether he still stands on his claim that women can "have a penis".
In a scathing attack on the Labour leader, Badenoch told the Commons that Starmer is a "weather vane who twists in the wind" and he "doesn’t have the balls" to express his views on gender.
Speaking to Camilla Tominey on GB News, Badenoch stood firm on her remarks, and claimed she has "no sympathy" for the Prime Minister's ever-changing stance on what makes a woman a woman.

When asked if she regrets the comments, Badenoch told the Camilla Tominey Show: "No, I don't, I speak the truth. I think it is very clear that this is a man who doesn't know what he believes.
"But the thing that I found most astonishing was that he could not bring himself to apologise to, or even acknowledge Rosie Duffield - the MP for Canterbury - hounded out of his party with his permission. He was one of those people who was rebuking her."
Highlighting the abuse she also received for being gender-critical, like Duffield, Badenoch explained: "Now the Supreme Court has said that people like me and her were right all along.
"The amount of abuse that I got from Labour MPs, you would not believe the things they said, so I don't have any sympathy for them right now."
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
As Camilla highlighted Starmer's previous remarks on gender, claiming that "trans women are women" despite welcoming the Supreme Court's ruling this week, Badenoch stressed that there are "lots of things that he says which are not true".
Badenoch told GB News: "There are lots of things he says at PMQs that are not true. I can't say that he's lying there, but I can say it now.
"There are many things, like the ones you've described, I talked about it in Parliament the day before - he said 99.9 per cent of women don't a penis, and one in 1,000 do - this is just not common sense.
"And if somebody cannot bring themselves to speak the truth because they're worried about a mob or their dinner party setting, then what other decisions are they making for the country?"

Hitting out at the Labour Government, Badenoch claimed that their current policies are "ruining rural communities" and "destroying family businesses".
Badenoch concluded: "Look at what's happening with unemployment, it's rising.
"Taxes are rising, people are angry. They're angry about the jobs tax, they're not hiring people.
"They claim that they've got the NHS waiting list down, but this is Labour just telling people things. Let's actually look at what is happening out there, no one is happy.
"I've been going all around the country, and no one has said 'I'm really glad about what Labour is doing with the NHS'."
She added: "They're talking about how Labour is killing their businesses.
"I've been on about three farms this week - family farm tax is actively destroying farms, and it's going to ruin our rural communities."
