I would have thought in any case that whatever he said was the least of our problems at the moment angry

Personally I initially thought he said 'stupid woman', but when the LP said it was 'stupid people' I watched again and changed my mind...

I’ve looked at the footage and I think he did say, ‘Stupid people’, not ‘Stupid woman’.

I think many politicians look pretty damn stupid right now.

Racist and sexist.

Who looks stupid now? All those not realising this is just another Tory move to avoid actual debate on the state this country is in. And you can't say he lied in the House unless you have proof.
Why no fuss when a Tory called Yvette Cooper a bitch, or Phillip Hammond used the 'stupid woman' phrase in the House?

Yes Alima I agree, dangerous AND stupid.

Haven’t seen the footage. However, rather than thinking he is stupid I would define him as dangerous.

Anyone with a brain cell can see for themselves that he said "stupid woman". I would have had a little bit of respect if he had owned up and apologised, but he's just blatantly lied at the ballot box. Who looks stupid now?
