TL;DR Summary

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faced criticism for making a gender-related remark in Parliament moments after being informed that the mother of a murdered transgender teenager was present. The remark was intended to mock the Labour Party's leader, but was deemed inappropriate by many, including the visibly furious Keir Starmer. Sunak failed to apologize, prompting calls for him to do so from various quarters, including the LGBTQ+ rights group Stonewall. The incident has raised concerns about the level of debate ahead of the upcoming general election in the UK.
