And he did it with the most derogatory angry expression on his face.

No, I simply have an opinion and I'm certain I saw him mouth "woman". So not all lip readers agree...You've rather proved my point for me.

Not really, ratchet, given that you have said you are sure he lied but now accept that actually it's a matter of opinion.

RingThoseChristmasBells · 20/12/2018 17:21

She is stupid. She is a woman. It's factually accurate not sexist.

JSmitty · 20/12/2018 17:28

Now the lip-readers are out, here's David Mundell calling Yvette Cooper a 'bitch.'

OlennasWimple · 20/12/2018 17:50

So stupid wimple it is!

Now I'm really offended!

Well a Labour MP Ivan Lewis has just quite the Labour Party over Corbyns failure to deal with antisemitism.

What with that and Fiona Onasanya MP being found guilty yesterday for her offence to do with lying over a speeding offence and facing possible jail time, Labour aren't having a good week.

starcrossedseahorse · 20/12/2018 18:01

It won't matter to the cultists.

MissEliza · 20/12/2018 18:04

JSmitty that's disgusting and unacceptable. Politics has become so nasty these days although sexism is age old, of course. After seeing Bercow's reaction yesterday, it seems it's quite easy for MPs to get away with it.

AnOtherNomdePlume · 20/12/2018 18:12

For Mundell as pointed on the YouTube comments "Leadership pitch" is more in fitting with the context tbh and my (amateur!) lipreading.

For Mundell as pointed on the YouTube comments "Leadership pitch" is more in fitting with the context tbh and my (amateur!) lipreading. Mundell is known as 'Wee Fluffy' and is my constituency MP in Scotland. He is a lovely man and as far away from Corbyn as you can imagine.

AnOtherNomdePlume · 20/12/2018 18:19

Yes they were stern words from him!

starcrossedseahorse · 20/12/2018 18:25

Yep he says 'leadership pitch'! It's pretty obvious.

She's now comparing herself to Jesus

starcrossedseahorse · 20/12/2018 18:28

Hahahaha! That is a scary read. She is completely bonkers.

starcrossedseahorse · 20/12/2018 18:30

While God did not save them from a guilty verdict, he did save them in it and ensured that their greatest days of impact were on the other side of a guilty verdict. Of course this is equally true of Christ, who was accused and convicted by the courts of his day and yet this was not his end but rather the beginning of the next chapter in his story

WTAF?!

GiantKitten · 20/12/2018 18:41

Between her & Kate Osamor Labour’s reputation is having a very bad month

MissEliza · 20/12/2018 20:23

I would jump for joy if Yvette Cooper was making a leadership pitch. It feels like so many sensible Labour politicians jumped ship eg Andy Burnham, David Milliband but Yvette Cooper has hung in there.

Gronky · 20/12/2018 21:07

An interesting factor to consider when saying with absolute certainty that you read someone's lips saying one thing or another:

The brain is great at filtering out noise and errors but that same ability also allows us to deceive ourselves into seeing what isn't there.

smithsinarazz · 20/12/2018 21:44

This makes no sense. It seems as though the kick-off isn't about TM being called "stupid" - which is insulting, although some might think, not as insulting as all that, considering what she's done - but about her being called a woman. Which, last time I looked, wasn't anything to be ashamed of.
I find it very hard to talk about Theresa May without an angry expression on my face, and I'm lucky enough not to have ever had to visit a food bank, live under a bridge, or seek asylum in the UK.
If it's wrong to describe May as a woman, is she allowed in the Ladies?

starcrossedseahorse · 20/12/2018 21:46

Tbf anyone seems to be allowed in the Ladies so that is no indicator of womanhood.

BlancheM · 20/12/2018 21:48

I've read on erm, another parenting forum, a lip reader say that he actually muttered, 'stupid wankers' Xmas Grin

smithsinarazz · 20/12/2018 21:50

@starcrossedseahorse I'm glad I'm not the only one here following the Murdoch press's line.
I don't actually know whether I think TM is stupid. Inept, certainly. But I can forgive someone for being inept. I find it hard to forgive someone who's dedicated her time in office to protecting the bankers, the property developers and the warmongers, and casting aside the homeless, the refugees and the sick.

MargueritaPink · 20/12/2018 21:51

The kick off is because if it had still been Cameron on the other side of the despatch box Corbyn would have said "idiot" or "stupid idiot". He wouldn't have bothered to highlight Cameron's sex.

That is aside from the fact the leader of the opposition should not be calling the PM stupid.

OssomMummy1 · 20/12/2018 21:51

I am nota big fan of Nulabour or Corbyn. But women in British media is not too far either. It doesn't matter what his name is, he is the leader of opposition and the leader of second biggest political party in UK. The way Cathy Newman or kunnsberg talk arrogantly when they are interviewing him, completely puts me off. I hate them for that and hence I don't support pseudo-feminists either.

frankiestein401 · 20/12/2018 22:20

just realised - corbyn actually said "stupid w*nkers" - occurred to me when listening to loathsome this am and went back to look :)

GiantKitten · 20/12/2018 22:27

a) it's still not clear (& prob never will be) whether he said woman or people

b) I would (& did ) call Cameron & many of his merry crew "stupid man" - ditto B Johnson & others of the current batch of tossers - I'm prety sure Corbyn would too. You are projecting.
