I hoped these two would be sufficiently worthy of distrust because of their views alone, so that even the lazier or more strident arms of the press shouldn't need to resort to gender-based comments to find points to be critical of. Although you know the Mail will be comparing them based on their shoes.
But the dreadful Leadsom has introduced nonsensical issues of motherhood into the mix, so frankly if she finds herself on the receiving end of abuse based on her gender she only has herself to blame.
