Oh no I didn't
Oh yes you did
On no I didn't

Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood now showing at a theatre in central London. Watch the entertainment unfold as the juggernaut nears the edge of the cliff..
 
Of course not. However he would had retained some form of respect had he just admitted it and apologised. Unfortunately he’s now telling porkies and that won’t go away.......
He said 'people'. Why "own up" to something you didnt say?

Anyway, she'll be gone soon. No point talking about whether she's stupid or otherwise.
 
I’ve said myself I think personally any fallout will possibly be over the denial , it’s usually the denial or in more serious examples the cover up that causes the difficulties. I’ve no idea whether this will be something that rumbles on though .

I hope not, these people are supposed to be running a country....
 
Oh because you can always trust the non partisan bastion of good standards that is SKY News in such situations...

They're reporting other opinion, not their own.

Sure, they may be biased to want to report such a thing, but that bias would show itself as not publishing evidence if it leaned another way.

Factually speaking, not editorially speaking, the article is what it is - the vast majority of lip readers looking at that tape see it as "stupid woman".
 
This is just ridiculous. I don't know what's the more ludicrous now.

On the one hand we've got the media being obscene making such an almighty fuss over a nothing comment and acting like they're offended on our behalf and pretending that this completely nothing story is an important issue to the nation when frankly nobody cares.

And to make matters worse we've got some of the more hardline Corbyn supporters and even Corbyn himself playing the media's game. For God's sake. He clearly said "stupid woman", ffs stop denying reality. It's there for all to see. Why on earth he didn't either quickly apologise (he didn't have to mean it) and dismiss the whole thing as the none event that it was. Or alternatively stand by his comment that May is a stupid woman (because she bloddy well is!) and make the point that parliament acts like a circus every time it's in session and that May had been playing the fool only a second prior to his comment. He should of pointed out that the media revel in the playground atmosphere of parliament 99.9% of the time so it's a bit rich for them to be so upset over this.

It's this blind refusal to admit that he said stupid woman that is the only problem. For God's sake he's only a man. He's fallible and makes mistakes just like the rest of us, just accept that he made one here and move on.

I've watched it multiple times and it looks like people to me. Not arsed with who SKY otherwise dig up to push their agenda, and I'm no Corbyn fan either
 
Out of interest. Can anyone tell me why the woman part of his comment is supposed to be offensive? Surely it's the "stupid" part (which he doesn't deny) that is rude. As far as I'm aware May has never claimed to be any other gender then a woman so why calling her one would be offensive is beyond me.
