If Corbyn is lying about his words, that opens him to criticism. But I can't see that there is anything to apologise for in the term he is accused of using. Theresa May was behaving in a cheap stupid way, and she actually is a woman. I'm not sure whether she has ever called Corbyn a "stupid man", but she's said things a lot more insulting to and about him.

Well spotted Nigel. I should have typed "people" there. Or spotted it, if it was my bossy computer that made the mistake. But my observation stands. If I said the words out loud, they looked different, but if I muttered them to myself, they looked the same - and that was what Corbyn was doing. Even if he did use the W word which is evidently seen as offensive.y
