    I’m referring to the Independent. The article is trash. They’re accusing her of “being a man.” It’s 2025, and newspapers are still using this disgusting language to refer to trans people.

      For me, that would only make sense if Owens literally ‘accused’ her of being a man, not a trans woman. The other case outlined in the text then would be a distinctly different case:

      Brigitte Macron was previously awarded £6,750 in damages last year after two other far-right influencers falsely accused her of being a transgender woman.
