Quotes

  • Yet trans activists have succeeded in campaigning for biological males who identify as female to be allowed into women’s sports, women’s hospital wards and women’s prisons, even when these trans women still have intact male genitalia. This is not acceptable, and presents a serious threat to women’s safety, as well as our sex-based rights.
  • [On gender ideology] If there's one place where a woman should be able to speak up about these issues, that should be parliament.
  • The problem with this point of view represented by those who subscribe to gender ideology is that they don't respond to rational debate with counterarguments.They respond to it with cries of 'bigots', or cries of trying to silence people who express an opposite point of view. That's what is so frustrating.
  • For children are not an economic burden. They are not a threat to personal autonomy or a lifestyle choice. Children are a joy and a blessing, they are the symptom and the cause of a society that has hope.Our children are the reason that we seek to rebuild a nation whose future is prosperous, safe and free.
  • I think ... I'm uncomfortable ... I believe every human being is equal before God. That's my faith position. I don't think we can get away from the fact that abortion is taking human life. There are obviously balances of rights, and I'm not an absolutist at all.
  • [On motherhood] Some young people are led to believe it's all drudgery [...] 'It’s a noose around your neck.' But most people don't regret having children. We don't talk openly enough as a society about what's great about being a mum or a dad. We talk about what's great about a career, and that's fine. But we should talk about other fulfilling things in life.
