What’s great about a “stupid woman” muttering thread is that it’s allowed shy Tories to appear in daylight again, even if it’s only to discuss muttering instead of the calamatous Brexit performance and consequences for every one of us. Why have they been hiding for so long, could it be embarrassment?Chaps
Whispering "stupid woman" is the sort of thing you can do in the heat of the moment and is certainly not a hanging offence.
If he had immediately apologised, it would have been forgotten the day after.
Unfortunately his lack of judgement showed him to be a liar and his word is now meaningless.
He had three hours to think about it and even after time for reflection, he just tried to lie.
Emily Thornberry's face showed it all, his word is now worthless.

I’m amazed anyone is taking this seriously.
Jesus wept, I can't believe we're still talking about this non-event.
Why should he admit to saying something he didn't say?It wasn't going anywhere until he made a pathetic attempt to cover it up. Let's face it, it's hardly the most egregious of insults and he could quite easily have used the moment to explain how frustrated he was with the governments disgraceful behaviour over Brexit and making a pantomime joke out of a serious issue..
But no, rather than display confidence he chooses to reinforce the widely held belief that at the first sign of trouble he wobbles and loses his moral compass. He really is a vacuous old lefty windbag who has nothing to offer other than protest about how unfair life is. Having dug his hole, he'll now whinge about how unfairly the press treat him.
It really is time for him to man up and be the socialist leader that his followers believe he is.
On Wednesday a homeless man became the second rough sleeper to die outside parliament this year after he collapsed in a stairwell.
So we should ignore all news in favour of Brexit.I wouldn't worry as earlier the lead story was the sacking of Mourinho..... the sacking of a poxy football manager as lead story on the BBC while the country hurtles towards oblivion and all paid for by a TV tax.... you couldn't make it up!
Answer, yes.The real question is whether PMQs is a farce that alienates the vast majority of the electorate and makes politicians look like a bunch of braying morons.
The problem is Theresa May is far, far worse than stupid; she is arrogant, pig-headed, destructive, anti-democratic, evasive, myopic, dogmatic and an absolute danger to the economic prospects of the UK for generations to come.
The annoyance is Corbyn’s ongoing incompetence and inability to carry out his role has once again let her and her shameful party off the hook. As if to underline the issue a homeless man died on the steps of the HoC in a perfect demonstration of Conservative Party social policy yesterday, yet that bell-end Corbyn is the news once again...
Cameron was a master in the HoC, a true stand up genius, Blaire before him, both were god awful leaders & truly despicable people, I have little interest in performance in the HoC, his policies & how he would distribute them is far important to me, many just want a show, leads us to where we are now.As a matter of fact I did consider replying to your post again. Although I'm obviously pro-Labour I do try to preserve some objectivity and I've never claimed Corbyn is beyond criticism. For example, I accept he often performs relatively weakly in the HoC and this must irk some Labour MPs.
The top bit is wrong BTW, I have watched it back, he did say woman, of this i'm sure, as for the rest, well, i'm not "one of those guys" just to put you right.I never accused Corbyn of saying "stupid woman".
Ever heard of "male victimization anxiety"? You sound like one of those guys who sees the "real world" in terms of zero-sum relationships. Men and women are in competition, so if things go better for women, then they must go worse for men. Ever notice that many white men have a similar view of minority groups?
I support Corbyn, he said woman, so theory blown apart I initially thought people as we see what we want to at times, but no, 100% he said woman.What could you possibly learn from reading this thread :
1. Corbyn supporters say Stupid people.
2. Non corbyn supporters say stupid woman.
3.Gassor is correct, what a load of trivia.

still headline news on the bbc website, after having been so since early afternoon. that's simply appalling bias, regardless of what the man might or might not have said. i've rarely seen such blatant partisanship.
That's right Tony, those poor news editors of the BBC have no choice. They are compelled, against their will, to lead with a non-story about Corbyn rather than the shocking story of a homeless man dying outside the Houses of Parliament while Tory MPs brayed and jeered at the leader of the opposition in a pathetic pantomime, all in support of a PM who is doing everything in her power to circumvent parliamentary democracy.
