Description

Health Secretary Sajid Javid came into the studio this afternoon to look back at nearly two years of Covid policy with Freddie Sayers. At the end, Freddie asked a slightly different question. Should cyclist Emily Bridges, who now identifies as a woman and is one year into treatment, be able to compete in the women’s category at this week’s National Omnium Championships? He responded:

My own view is that when it comes to sport, it should be about sex rather than gender and sex should be based on your biological sex.
- Sajid Javid

The full interview will be out tomorrow.
