The Leighton Smith Podcast: Jill Ovens on the ruling sex is changeable and Behnam Ben Taleblu gives insight into the Middle Eastern crises

“Without an anchor in biological reality, laws based on ’sex’ become meaningless and justice cannot be served.” So wrote evolutionary biologist Colin Wright. 

Jill Ovens, National Secretary and Co-Leader of the Women’s Rights Party, responds to the ruling of an Australian Judge that sex is changeable in a case involving ‘gender identity’.

And common-sense rules mightily in her favour.

Plus, exactly five years to the day after we interviewed Behnam Ben Taleblu on the Middle East, Iran in particular, he returns with much insight into the current crisis – or should that be crises. 

As always, Mrs Producer joins us in the Mailroom.
