Goodness me- am I the only one who has followed PMQ today? A rich seam indeed!

Horrible, sexist, beastly bugger! shock angry

Haven't followed it. But that is no way to behave. Totally unnecessary.

What's the problem? That he called her stupid, or that he called her a woman?

Would it be as terrible if he'd called a male minister a 'stupid man'? If not, why not?

So was she being stupid? Generally assume that anyone who wants to be an MP is stupid ,venal, egocentric, egotistical, dishonest or downright bananas.( I have met a goodly few) (but I'm not a very good judge of character )

I think it's highly unlikely he'd have said stupid man

bluebell Wed 10-Jul-13 19:07:54

And actually, I think he was rattled because she'd made a far from stupid point

j08 Wed 10-Jul-13 22:15:10

I don't think he would have said stupid man.

It's breath-takingly bad!
