Jo Swinson told to wear a low cut top

Jo Swinson was just on this morning (I'm not a fan but do try and watch /listen to interviews from all parties to make up my own mind).

She was apparently given advice from someone in her OWN PARTY that she should wear a lower cut top to gain votes. Horrendous. She was trying to make a point to Holly about how bad this is, but then just seemed to laugh off the fact it came from someone in her party, that she's supposed to be leading!

Never mind Jo. Your cleavage could secretly identify as a pair of moobs, that'll teach them sexist bastards, right?

And Jo, could you please stop comparing lesbian women to men, thanks.

Well that's a disturbing thought - the coalition of the smugly woke and the smugly posh.

but can you imagine if anyone had been stupid enough to ask Thatcher to flash some cleavage how she'd have reacted

Or even Teresa May. I doubt they'd have lasted more than two mins. But you'd have to have been very brave or very stupid to make the comment to either.

The fact even her own party member thinks it's ok to say that to her, shows just how little leadership she commands.

Sarah I think I love you. "Answers on a postcard" Grin.

Sounds like just the sort of advice Lord Renard would offer the aspiring young female candidates as he bounced them on his knee.

(Now where was JoJo when all this was going on? ....What's that you say, Sooty? .....She was Minister for Women and Equlaities!!!)

Also granted that she was older when she took power, but can you imagine if anyone had been stupid enough to ask Thatcher to flash some cleavage how she'd have reacted? You're supposed to be the leader, Jo. Tell them to go f*cuk themselves.

She should have simply told her party that she was identifying as a bloke that morning. Problem solved!

Does she think anyone would ask a certain young Labour Party former women's officer to wear low cut tops to get out the vote? If not, why not?

Anyone who knows Jo irl who's the slightest bit GC must be banging their head against the wall in frustration. There's not quite getting it and then there's actively refusing to do so.

Imnobody4 · 10/12/2019 11:13

Funny she didn't tell them they weren't welcome in the party like GC women.
She's useless.

I think we need to concentrate more on the repeated lesbophobia she displayed, frankly. How many times can she accuse lesbians of being as involved in DV and VAWG as men are in one election campaign?

Lib Dems hating women. Who'd have thunked it!

Something they would only tell a ___

Answers on a post card.

Get it yet Jo?
