was my packed lunch today, caused his behavioural issues as the charity adhd. adhd uk has issued a statement slamming wicks for his comments. when i wonder how long it took them to compose that email, i would like to condemn oh, a squirrel! and i mean susie there does seem to be an issue now with, there's been an issue now with, there's been a huge increase in the number of people being diagnosed with adhd and things like that. i know many of my friends have been diagnosed. they mainly did it, because because you're in because either because you're in lockdown, they were bored, had too much time to sit around thinking and overanalyzing themselves. because you thinking and overanalyzing the|diagnosed because you thinking and overanalyzing the|diagnosed becadhd you thinking and overanalyzing the|diagnosed becadhd,you thinking and overanalyzing the|diagnosed becadhd , you get get diagnosed with adhd, you get what's essentially prescription grade speed off the nhs legally. yeah, legally. i mean, from a doctor, i mean , come on. doctor, i mean, come on. >> and we were just talking about comedians who remain about comedians who will remain nameless know, all nameless that are, you know, all got because they've got got adhd because they've got legalised but they're not funny. >> yeah, well, that's someone should put them on a diet of wagon wheels. >> i think this is going back. that's the recipe for things. but he's right, though.

agency amv, bbdo, who have too many letters in the name, but who's not gone down very well. the charity have come under fire from farmers feel that from farmers who feel that they're labelled as they're being labelled as villains animals and villains who abuse animals and some gardeners are angry too are being scolded lawn mowing being scolded for lawn mowing bees. if lawn mowing is a word, and stepping on snails and some donors are furious, one said to the daily mail i won't give them money again . the daily mail i won't give them money again. i am the daily mail i won't give them money again . i am totally money again. i am totally furious about the lack of respect they've shown for farmers and gardeners. our money has pay for this has been used to pay for this bonkers and wildly woke rebrand. it's an insult and gareth wyn jones, a welsh hill farmer, said the video was a kick in the teeth. well, i suppose as long as it's not a sheep's teeth. gareth, chloe, you seem like an animal lover. what do you make of this? i mean, i don't think it is as bad as you've maybe painted it to be. >> i think it's the stuff where they bring in the insects, where i think it gets a bit ridiculous. where you're the swatting the spiders. >> you're fine with insect abuse. >> well , i abuse. >> well, i mean, we could get into a deep philosophical

sikh, in sikh, the floor, the ground in front sure they front of them to make sure they don't stand out. >> will come back >> we will come back as cockroaches. okay >> well, that's that's probably a for anyway. let's a step up for me anyway. let's move on to, to tickle versus giggle. this is an app intended to provide an online refuge for women. is being sued by a transgender woman in australia. roxanne tickle is suing the female only social media platform giggle for girls after being blocked from using the app because the firm's ceo said that roxanne was a man. federal court justice robert bromwich heard tickle has lived as a woman since 2017, has a birth certificate stating that her genderis certificate stating that her gender is female, had gender affirmation surgery and feels in her mind that psychologically, she's a woman. however, roxanne looks like a roadie for def leppard. this case is the first time alleged gender identity discrimination has been heard by the federal court in sydney, and it goes right to the heart of the seemingly unresolvable conflict between biological sex

and gender identity. so preserving the rights of women for their own spaces, or allowing in women like me. so this could really set a precedent . i this could really set a precedent. i mean, i better ask the women what they think of this first. i mean, susie, do you do you think this, this, this goes to the heart of a lot of things that we've seen, transgender access to female sports, changing rooms and other safe spaces. and now this online refuge. do you know what i know? >> that it's, like, really a subject that makes people go, oh, be careful to talk about it . oh, be careful to talk about it. but we never talk about trans men wanting to get into male spaces. we don't talk about it. >> yeah, because men are fine with that because we're i'm not i'm not going to win the men's running race. >> let's honest. >> let's be honest. >> let's be honest. >> is and the thing is, >> this is it. and the thing is, is if you really feel is if you really, really feel like woman , i do. right, then like a woman, i do. right, then respect women suffer. so respect what women suffer. so for you know what i mean? to understand that when women say , understand that when women say, i've got to leave the studio

late at night on my own, right, that's a real i can't turn into leo. i have to, i embody that. i don't feel it, i am it, and i totally get why trans people feel at risk, but honour the fact that women we are at risk. we've just had afghanistan. it's not very comedy, but, you we've just had afghanistan. it's not very comedy, but , you know, not very comedy, but, you know, it's a different world. >> it is so important to call it out because actually it is respect for everybody in the conversation. in same conversation. and in the same way you have which are way as you have sports which are designed to start designed on physicality to start with have to have safe with and you have to have safe spaces for biological women, people women. you need people who are women. you need to sure that everybody to make sure that everybody feels conversation . feels safe in the conversation. so you absolutely respect so whilst you absolutely respect people's whatever people's right to do whatever they own bodies they want to their own bodies to identify they as identify however they want, as soon impacts somebody soon as it impacts somebody else, need to have else, then you need to have everybody's heard that everybody's voice heard in that conversation . this was an online conversation. this was an online refuge women. exactly. yeah refuge for women. exactly. yeah and particular need refuge for women. exactly. yeah and a particular need refuge for women. exactly. yeah and a particular rticular need refuge for women. exactly. yeah and a particular concern 1eed refuge for women. exactly. yeah and a particular concern and and a particular concern and safety issues that need to be addressed. yeah, absolutely. >> one thing that i saw, just on a slightly different note that i thought ridiculous , is riley thought was ridiculous, is riley gaines, sure know, gaines, who i'm sure you know, the swimmer compete
