JK Rowling has publicly criticized Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer for his stance on gender recognition, stating she will 'struggle to support' Labour under his leadership. In a 2,000-word essay published in The Times, Rowling expresses her dissatisfaction with Starmer's views, particularly regarding gender reforms. This controversy comes amidst a broader debate on gender recognition laws in the UK, with Rowling accusing Starmer of 'abandoning' women. The issue has also highlighted divisions within the Labour Party, as Starmer has also made headlines for his commitment to the NHS, stating he would not use private healthcare even for his children in case of illness.
