Monday will see a focus on gender from the Conservatives, defence from Labour and water from the Lib Dems as the Scottish parties prepare to debate.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will vow to amend equality laws to prevent “confusion” on sex and gender, while Sir Keir Starmer will focus on defence as the General Election campaign enters its second full week.
Mr Sunak said: “The safety of women and girls is too important to allow the current confusion around definitions of sex and gender to persist. The Labour leader is expected to meet forces veterans and a group of his party’s candidates when he campaigns in the north west of England on Monday. As part of his defence pitch on Monday, Sir Keir will reaffirm his commitment to a “nuclear deterrent triple lock” as well as his ambition to increase defence spending to 2.5% of gross domestic product , a measure of the size of the economy.
“Keeping our country safe is the bedrock of stability that the British people rightly expect from their government.
