Today's minister is...

[SueEllen]

Priti Patel.


Because of this No 10's Covid press briefings led exclusively by men for past six months | Women in politics | The Guardian

She looks like she is sucking a wasp as not to smirk.

I'm Priti sure she suffers from Dyscalculia, which I'm sure she's tried hard to hide but came out spectacularly in her previous visits to the podium.

These meetings must be a nightmare for her. The fact that she's the only woman in cabinet means that the spotlight is on her.

Good.

Is Dyscalculia where you look like Dracula?

Looks like I'm not the only one to make that connection...

In charge of the home office and she doesn't even know the difference between terrorism and counter terrorism

Sexist!! *

(Well I can't call you racist as she and her colleagues don't think it exists so can't be subject to it. )


*Can't find the smirk emoticon

Has she had too much banana bread during lockdown or is the camera adding 30 pounds?

Has she had too much banana bread during lockdown or is the camera adding 30 pounds?

Where as this IS unequivocally sexist.

These meetings must be a nightmare for her. The fact that she's the only woman in cabinet means that the spotlight is on her.

Are you sure on that?

[darmstadt]

Are you sure on that?

There are in fact 4 others in the cabinet:

Liz Truss - Secretary of State for International Trade and President of the Board of Trade, Minister for Women and Equalities
Elizabeth Coffey - Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

And how many people have heard of:

Baroness Evans of Bowes Park - Leader of the House of Lords, Lord Privy Seal
Amanda Milling - Minister without Portfolio (Unpaid)

They're not wheeled out very often though and there are a number of other ministers such as Kemi Badenoch and Baroness Goldie (honest)

Indeed. Liz is hardly low-profile, I think you'd be forgiven for not knowing the other 3 especially the last 2 though.
