A Tory MP said Kemi Badenoch couldn’t be party leader because she’s got 3 young children and was schooled into next week

by Glasgow Report
in Politics


Of all the reasons why Kemi Badenoch might not make make a good Conservative Party leader, this most definitely isn’t one of them.

It’s Conservative MP Christopher Chope, who’s been around so long he briefly served in the Cabinet under Margaret Thatcher and then John Mayor, suggesting that Badenoch shouldn’t get the top job because she’s ‘preoccupied’ with her three young children.

NEW: Conservative MP Sir Christopher Chope says Kemi Badenoch is “preoccupied with her children” and “you can’t spend all your time with your family at the same time as being leader of the opposition”.

Extraordinary scenes. And just in case the name (or the face) is familiar but you can’t quite place him …

In the meantime, enjoy precisely what people made of that, comprehensively schooling Chope somewhere into next week and beyond.

1.

Misogynistic attitude then whereby a woman shouldn’t do the job because she has children but a man can do the job who has children because one assumes the responsibility is to be dumped on the wife

We all remember Christopher raising the same concerns about Boris Johnson’s 9 children. Right?.. RIGHT?! https://t.co/zGZp7MR1AO

I’m shocked at Christopher Chope’s suggestion that women with children can’t be party leaders. I didn’t expect that from the man who blocked a bill to make upskirting illegal. https://t.co/nKYYkBCrs7
