So now who's "stupid"?

Didn't know that GrannyGravy, thanks for the info, reinforces my point above.

If J.C didn't say stupid woman,then why did he scuttle off out of the chamber when he was accused?! Surely he would have denied it there and then and immediately told colleagues what he DID say! Running off presumably for some advice as to how he could wriggle out of this situation made him look foolish, guilty and eventually a liar!! What an idiot!!!

It's perfectly obvious from the many clips available to see that he IS saying "stupid woman". Nasty.

Hates being got the better of by a woman, maybe?

No more Mr Nice Guy - if he ever was.

MaizieD - It's not at all obvious what he said.

Ha, ha, ha ha.....To all but the hard left maybe?

Is your Tory calling Yvette Cooper a ' stupid bitch' the old one about David Mundell who I believe was exhonorated as he said ' Leadership Pitch'?

I think had this indeed been what he said Labour would have taken the matter further and quite rightly so.

Agreed there was a similar controversy at the time but Mundell inststs he said ' Leadership Pitch' and I believe that was the opinion of lip readers at the time.

Almost 600 homeless people died last year and we're exercised about who said what to whom, in the pantomime that is being played out in the HoP by our elected leaders. I don't condone Corbyn if that's what he said, but am heartily sick of the Brexit fog engulfing everything when there are other neglected and serious issues to deal with in the country.

Me too. and .

So the next time a female MP mentions mysogyny, patronising comments etc. in Parliament or MP's debate the attitude in Parliament re female patronisation etc. they are wasting their time because there are bigger problems to worry about. In other words ' Get over it'. That is how I read some posters comments.

So the next time an MP uses patronising language it should just be accepted?

A Pandoras Box could be opened and that is why Parliament has a code of conduct and etiquette to keep things in check. It fails miserably at the moment and the Speaker has a hell of a lot to answer for.

What would this message be sending to woman who are already being put off becoming politicians because the attitude towards female MP's ?
