Jeremy Corbyn just called Theresa May "stupid woman"

“You don't need to be a qualified lip reader, you do though need the will to deny come what may, to take your position.”
Well, qualified lip readers say that it is only possible to be certain about 40% of words by lip reading alone- the rest relies on context. So you must have some special super lipreDibg power to be so sure!

You don't need to be a qualified lip reader, you do though need the will to deny come what may, to take your position.

I don’t think he has a history of lying.. Indeed? not even - "I never met the IRA"?

“The reason I'm so sure, is that he looks like he said "Stupid Woman".. And he has a history of lying.”

Ah yes, another lip reading expert. As I said- you really need to share your skill with the RNID. And a history of lying? He has a history of many things and is a crap leader of both Labour and the Opposition, but I don’t think he has a history of lying.

The reason I'm so sure, is that he looks like he said "Stupid Woman".. And he has a history of lying.

As you were....keep debating it all while ignoring the REAL issues.

Misogyny isn't a real issue? It certainly has real effects in the real world.

“He lied anout what he said”

Why are you so sure he lied about what he said?

As you were

Good, first and second class citizens are now free to continue....

He lied anout what he said. Ergo he’s just the same as the rest of them. I’ve akways known it but some really can't accept he’s not a friendly wizard character but a career politician. There problem, not mine. Now we need to move on and get back to discussing today’s news

As you were....keep debating it all while ignoring the REAL issues.

As has been said, I can debate this and REAL issues. This really seems a strange concept to some.

I move on...that is an example.

I can't be arsed with what the stupid man said. I think TM is a stupid woman with a stupid man in opposition. Those are terms of insult rather than believing either are genuinely "stupid". I can think of worse ways to describe them both too which are far more offensive than "stupid".

This is not a feminist issue. The Conservatives discovering (haha) that they are feminists is hilarious....all the whole lording it over policies which keep women second class citizens. That's a REAL feminist issue and NOT what one idiot man said.

As you were....keep debating it all while ignoring the REAL issues. That's the reason women are second class citizens and remain so.

Besides, you are quite wrong. Tories haven't discovered they are feminists particularly, [though it could be argued they have given us two female PM's to Labour's none] ...They're [at least I'm] not bothered about the comment itself, the issue is: the hypocrisy of the leader of the opposition party [as well as his acolytes] who would have no doubt demanded the resignation of a Tory who'd visibly muttered the same remark after a Labour female MP had got under their skin, in the hoc.

As well as the blatant lies from Corbyn afterwards, of course...

"Let his mask slip" and "cover up" - huge overreactions. Lots of people on here have admitted to calling women stupid women the same way they call men stupid men sometimes. It's not inherently sexist.

Perhaps he really did say people, or perhaps he said woman and is lying about it. But that wouldn't exactly be front page news either. "Politician lies to cover own back"... what a shocker.

Move on people as we have much much more to concern ourselves with.

I think a quick look at the feminism boards highlighting the erosion of women's rights to a safe space shows just how important women being treated with equality and respect is. And the delightful Jezza let his mask slip yesterday. I'll keep on concerning myself with how men treat women.

For the record, I can't bear Corbyn, he's a neolithic brocialist who should sod off back to his allotment.

But there really wasn't a media furore when the Chancellor of the Exchequer called a Labour MP a stupid woman. Most people only learned about it yesterday. Whataboutery it may be, but hypocrisy doe stick in my craw. Personally I think the entire political class should be ground up and returned to the soil. My ds's Y11 Citizenship class could do better.

It us consistent with Corbyn's politics to have said people, not woman.

Ok, we're all stupid and ought to move on, point made.

Will you lead by example?

It would be ratchet if I actually liked the man. I don't, can't stand him and wouldn't vote for him. So I am not "a Corbynista".

But the fact the Tories have discovered they are feminists is laughable.

And yes anyone falling for this diversion from the shit show this Govt has caused is indeed stupid.

Move on people as we have much much more to concern ourselves with. No wonder we are a laughing stock internationally.

a prime minister who, as home secretary, stopped funding rescue boats in the Mediterranean blah blah ....

Oh Lordy here we go...

I prefer to stick to what happened in PMQ's yesterday..

Greensleeves. Despite the whataboutery of that post. A quick Google search will show you there was indeed 'a furore'. Both Hammond and Berkow have form in this area...

well we all saw on the news that he said stupid woman but he denies it so who are we to point out his flaws

Jeremy Corbyn [who's as thick as two short planks] calling someone 'stupid', is particularly offensive IMO.

See, things I find offensive include a prime minister who, as home secretary, stopped funding rescue boats in the Mediterranean for desperate immigrants, allowing them to drown. Also putting in place hostile anti-immigration measures that meant that people who had been in this country for 50 years found themselves unable to access healthcare or were wrongly deported to countries they hadn't lived in for half a century.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

as in, he called her a "stupid woman".

ratchethammer, Philip Hammond said it to Labour MP Andrea Jenkyns, a few months ago. Audibly and on camera, in the HoC. Where was the furore?
