GB News presenter Jacob Rees-Mogg and Robert Jensen reach a common ground following a debate on transgender ideology in the US.

Speaking on GBN America, Jensen told Jacob: "You and I come from about as different political positions as possible, but there's no reason we can't be courteous and and respectful in dialogue.

"I think it's important, as you point out, as those standards erode, not only in the US but around the world, that we really hold on to those not just because they're important to democracy, which of course, they are. But I would argue because it's fun. The most fun in the world I have is learning and arguing, and it's, uh, it's been a great joy to do it my, most of my adult life."
