Stupid Woman?

The first thing I noticed on Sky News this morning was an annoying clock counting the 100 days down left to leaving the EU probably without a deal from the way things are going. At least preparations have been put more or less in place for that eventuality. I hope...

Meanwhile there's a big fuss about whether old Steptoe muttered "stupid woman" under his breath during a commons debate. I hate the bloke but really there's plenty of their things to knock Corbyn and his deluded flock with, But this? Ridiculous.

It's not sexist to say a man or woman is stupid. It is sexist to say all women are stupid or worth half a man as one leading religion tells us. The use of the words against one woman, the Prime Minister a crime does not make. Anyway Corbyn is a very stupid man full of slogans and lacks intellect. That's not being sexist. That's telling it as it is.

Meanwhile Labour have a real problem and have essentially expelled one of their own MP's The BBC reports:

An MP has been found guilty of perverting the course of justice by lying to police about who was behind the wheel of a speeding car.

Peterborough MP Fiona Onasanya denied she was driving her car when it was caught doing 41mph in a 30mph zone in Thorney, Cambridgeshire, in July 2017.

The 35-year-old Labour MP was convicted in an Old Bailey retrial.

A Labour Party spokesman said she had been "administratively suspended" and called for her to resign.

He added: "The Labour Party is deeply disappointed in Fiona Onasanya's behaviour. It falls well below what is expected of politicians. She should now resign."

The incident happened one week after Onasanya became an MP. Stupid woman is inappropriate in this case. Stronger words about her lying should be used. Criminal is one of them. Perjury is a serious matter.
