British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Wednesday declared that people shouldn’t get bullied into believing that people can be any sex they want to be, asserting that a man is a man and a woman is a woman — that’s just common sense.

Sunak made the remarks in an hour-long address to his party’s grassroots in Manchester, during which he cast himself as a defender of Conservative values.

After promising to legislate that “sexual and sadistic” killers would spend their lives in prison, Sunak listed other positions he said “shouldn’t be controversial,” including “for parents to know what their children are being taught in school about relationships.”

“Patients should know when hospitals are talking about men or women,” Sunak continued during his closing speech at his party’s annual gathering, held this year in Manchester.

“And we shouldn’t get bullied into believing that people can be any sex they want to be. They can’t. A man is a man and a woman is a woman — that’s just common sense.”

“In too many parts of our permanent state, virtue signaling has replaced common sense. It shouldn’t be controversial for parents to know what their children are being taught in school about relationships.

“Patients should know when hospitals are talking about men or women. “And we shouldn’t get bullied into believing that people can be any sex they want to be. They can’t.

Rishi Sunak pledged to stop people being “bullied” into accepting Trans arguments as he used his conference speech to take on Labour over gender.

The Prime Minister said it “shouldn’t be controversial” to ensure parents were informed what their children were being taught about sex and relationships at school.

He insisted it was “common sense” to say that “a man is a man and a woman is a woman” in his most strident intervention yet on the highly charged subject.

Although announcements on A-levels, smoking and HS2 dominated, much of the 7,617-word address was dedicated to fleshing out the Prime Minister’s broader political ideology.

His remarks on gender drew the loudest applause of the afternoon and followed an announcement that Transgender women will be banned from female-only hospital wards.

He said: “We shouldn’t get bullied into believing that people can be any sex they want to be. They can’t – a man is a man and a woman is a woman. That’s just common sense.

“It shouldn’t be controversial for parents to know what their children are being taught in school about relationships. Patients should know when hospitals are talking about men or women.”

Mr Sunak also spoke about the importance of family, saying that Conservatives should “never be afraid” to champion its importance to a stable society.

He also hit out at police forces for “tolerating” low-level offences such as anti-social behaviour, warning that “virtue-signaling has replaced common sense” in too many cases.

“Every crime should be investigated,” he said. “Our streets will be safer, our communities more secure, no one should be afraid to walk home alone at night.”
