As usual: A big FUCK YOU @ Liz Truss and all other Tories!

This is the best summary I could come up with:

But the PA news agency understands that some Conservative MPs had been asked to prolong the earlier debates in an effort to run down the clock.

Accused by Tory backbencher Sally Ann Hart of trying to “talk out” the Bill, Mr Reed denied this, saying the subject was “important”, to cries of “rubbish” from the Conservative benches.

Deputy speakers Dame Eleanor Laing and Sir Roger Gale repeatedly asked MPs to restrict their remarks to the subject of the Bill, saying they were straying into other areas.

“These policies have popular support – and legislation is required in this area because non-statutory guidance gives too much latitude to extremist ideologues determined to use any loopholes available to promote their dangerous agenda.

The aide agreed, adding: “The Labour Party is hopelessly split on these issues, so the Conservatives should be open to all ideas to improve protections for women and girls.”

The Prime Minister’s official spokesman said: “But more broadly, we welcome the sentiment set out in the Bill, not least because it is consistent with our own approach on the fundamental importance of biological sex and the right that women have to access dedicated single-sex spaces.”
