The depths they are plumbing with their denial are astounding. First she said nothing of the sort, then she did but it was a set up, finally even if she did say it it doesn't matter.

The main thing they're hanging onto it seems is the fact she said in the interview that she didn't want to make the comparison which therefore means she didn't. You can't negate something you say by saying you never want to say it. It's from the same school of thought as saying 'I don't want to be racist
but...'. :roll eyes:
All of these bizarre minons that rally behind people like a cult: Corbyn, Leadsom, Trump. It's scary.

The interviewer brought up motherhood, in response to Leadsom doing the same in Brexit debates, but then Leadsom brought up the comparison with May and the idea that as a mother she is better placed to make decisions because 'she has a stake' in this country.
