I think this is the individual who once called House of Commons restaurant staff as ‘servants’. Perhaps this view contributed to the decimation at the last election?

She has done a good job so far, why would that change?

[DarthQueefious]

The biggest gaffe would be to elect her leader

Ouch !!!! That's gonna hurt !!!! Career-ending stuff !!!! Pretty impressive that a man his age is flexible enough to get both feet in his mouth at the same time.

She married to a millionaire she can afford a nanny. She is an opposition leader not Prime Minister.

Farage is too busy being a tv presenter and visiting America to lead his party but that doesn't stop him, well I mean it does but he still takes the salary

[johnsorzano]

It is a fair point.

Because is the woman is the primary care giver. Hard to swallow but it's the truth.

People make choices. Some want to spend their time with their families, others want to become Prime Minister. Women have the freedom to choose - and that is to be applauded. But trying to do both is a form of "cakeism" and how that worked out we should know by now.
