pretty controversial area. i think for trans women, they feel that they are women... they have every right that every other woman has too. so i think it'll be quite a fraught debate on this in the coming day or two. �* ., ., two. and emma, the headline in the dail mail, two. and emma, the headline in the daily mail. “huge — two. and emma, the headline in the daily mail, "huge boost _ two. and emma, the headline in the daily mail, "huge boost for - two. and emma, the headline in the| daily mail, "huge boost for women's rights," that is taking quite a bold stance, if you like, on how it interprets the findings of this report. interprets the findings of this re ort. , , ., ., report. yes, the use of that term women's rights _ report. yes, the use of that term women's rights is _ report. yes, the use of that term women's rights is very _ report. yes, the use of that term women's rights is very telling. i report. yes, the use of that term | women's rights is very telling. the daily— women's rights is very telling. the daily mail— women's rights is very telling. the daily mail talks about areas like changing rooms and fitness classes, by the _ changing rooms and fitness classes, by the telegraph is slightly more nuanced. — by the telegraph is slightly more nuanced, talking about classes on rape counselling sessions and women refugees, _ rape counselling sessions and women refugees, and various other spaces

that this is an area that conservatives have certainly felt more comfortable they on labour in recent weeks, where we seen labour politicians struggling with the definition of a man and a woman, and conservatives like borisjohnson making jokes about the sort of thing. again, this is an area of controversy — i feel it creates more difficulties for the left than for the right to. difficulties for the left than for the right to— difficulties for the left than for the right to._ theiri difficulties for the left than for - the right to._ their media the right to. on, emma. their media reall love the right to. on, emma. their media really love to — the right to. on, emma. their media really love to put _ the right to. on, emma. their media really love to put people _ the right to. on, emma. their media really love to put people on - the right to. on, emma. their media really love to put people on the - really love to put people on the spot. _ really love to put people on the spot, especially labour politicians. they been really putting them on the spot because it's such a difficult area, _ spot because it's such a difficult area, as — spot because it's such a difficult area, as we've seen with jk spot because it's such a difficult area, as we've seen withjk rowling, to really— area, as we've seen withjk rowling, to really pinpoint people and make them _ to really pinpoint people and make them feel— to really pinpoint people and make them feel foolish. can a woman have a venus? _ them feel foolish. can a woman have a venus? this is very hot button, but it's_ a venus? this is very hot button, but it's it's — a venus? this is very hot button, but it's it's a _ a venus? this is very hot button, but it's it's a very nuanced area, as well, — but it's it's a very nuanced area, as well, it's _ but it's it's a very nuanced area, as well, it's a _ but it's it's a very nuanced area, as well, it's a very sensitive area.

moment, thank you very much indeed. hello, i'm marc edwards with your support. —— sport. there was a party at selhurst park for palace tonight as they put a pin in arsenal's hopes of a top four finish. the eagles soaring in south london on a raucous night as crystal palace thrashed the gunners 3—0 to climb up to 9th, while arsenal stay in 5th. nick parrot was watching this one for us.... many a team has seen their efforts toward at selhurst park. it has one of the most intimidating atmospheres in the premier league. and it got to arsenal early on. this free kick gave crystal palace the perfect opportunity. john philippe matata post my goal was significant because they hadn't lost the season after scoring first. on the 1st of april,

mikael arteta was named the manager for march. but parents were fast making his side look like fools. less than ten minutes after going a goal down, arsenal's defence looked up goal down, arsenal's defence looked up again, and the whole side went two up. you couldn't tell from the finish that this wasjordan iiu's finish that this wasjordan “us only second goal of the season. it didn't matter what arsenal did, this wasn't going to be there at night. they felt this should have been a penalty — it wasn't given. but when wilford saha went down, it was, and arsenal's hopes went with it. fans were delirious, but so too will tottenham's as they stare ahead for fourth place. nick parent, bbc news. when you want to wreck in the second half, its too late. we tried, we had 3—4 big chances to score, and the only chance, or have chance they had, they got a penalty. so it's

time to accept your criticism, apologise that the performance wasn't good enough for this club, and now react. because when everything goes well, everybody wants to be there to be supportive. so let's see who's there now. netherlands coach louis van gaal has revealed that he's been diagnosed with prostate cancer. the former manchester united boss says he still plans to lead his team at the world cup in qatar in seven months�* time. the 70—year—old told rtl television that he has already undergone 25 bouts of radiotherapy, including in the evening during training camps with the dutch team. his national team captain, liverpool's virgil van dijk, admitted it was a surprise. i was also in shock last night when i was also in shock last night when i heard his interview. because obviously, he's getting his film out next week. so i was just wondering how he would promote it a little bit and speak about his life. and then,

obviously that was a big shock, as well. we will definitely be there for him as a group whenever he needs it. van djik was speaking ahead of the return of the champions league. his team, liverpool, go to benfica, while manchester city, who are on the hunt for their first european cup title, host atletico madrid in the first leg. manager pep guardiola has been criticised in the past for overthinking his tactics in big games and he joked that he'll do it again tomorrow. i overthink a lot. and is that fair? absolutely- _ i overthink a lot. and is that fair? absolutely. that's _ i overthink a lot. and is that fair? absolutely. that's why _ i overthink a lot. and is that fair? absolutely. that's why i've - i overthink a lot. and is that fair? absolutely. that's why i've had i absolutely. that's why i've had really good results in the champions league. it would be boring, myjob, if we did all the same way. so tonight, i've taken inspiration and i'll do incredible tactics tomorrow, so... we play with 12 tomorrow. tiger woods' potential return to golf could be the stuff of sporting legend. woods says he'll make a "game—time decision" on whether he's fit enough

to compete at the masters. he's at augusta to continue what he called his preparation and practice, but he hasn't played competitively since suffering serious leg injuries in a car crash 14 months ago. woods has won the masters five times and he is named as one of 91 participants this week, but he has yet to decide whether he'll take to the tee on thursday. and how about this for a fitting ending? legendary new zealand batter ross taylor rounded off his international career in style, taking the final catch. as the black caps won their third one—day international against the netherlands by 115 runs in hamilton. taylor ends his 16—year international career with new zealand as the country's record run scorer in tests and odis. tennis now — and poland's iga swiatek has been confirmed as the new world number one in the women's tennis rankings, replacing ash barty, who retired last month. swiatek celebrated her new status in style at the weekend, winning the miami open with victory over naomi osaka. that was her third title

in a row and extended her winning streak to 17 matches. after the event, she was able to reflect on the past couple of weeks, and her reaction when she heard that barty had decided to quit. i was crying for 40 minutes, basically. both because of her retirement, and that i didn't really know it would happen, and it really surprised me because i always had this vision that we would all play until we were 35 or something. after two hours of being really emotional, i realised that i didn't know what would happen yet, and i still had to and some matches. so let's wait with the emotions and being excited, because we had work to do. that's what i thought and i think it really helped me to stay focused in the tournament. that's all export for now. from me, marc edwards, and the rest of the team, goodbye. —— that's all the sport for now.
