Ms Duffield, who represents the party in Canterbury, railed against the idea of 'gender self-identification', speaking out at a conference of the LGB Alliance - a campaign group that claims to advance lesbian, gay and bisexual rights.
When asked about the possibility of misgendering someone becoming a hate crime, the 51-year-old said: "Is that a serious thing? Is that coming to Parliament any time soon? I hope not because you might as well arrest me now. I'm not calling Eddie Izzard a woman."
Izzard, 60, announced two weeks ago a plan to stand for Labour in the Sheffield Central constituency at the next General Election.

It's a pity all MP's don't follow Rosie Duffield's example and stand up for common sense. Now that would make a refreshing change.
