Andrew Murrison, who supported Leadsom, belatedly grovels about being "bowled over by the strength and power" of May. This is the kind of man who represents South West Wiltshire.

Bowled over by strength & power of @theresa_may on social justice. Looking forward to thoughts on healthcare.— andrew murrison (@murrisonMP) July 13, 2016
Unlike me, these male politicians in charge of the ship of state couldn't see that this woman who probably reminded them of their granny or mummy was unreliable, inexperienced as well as selfish and self-indulgent with no idea of her place in the world and politics, whose husband is so henpecked he didn't dare stop her from standing by threatening to divorce her. That would have stopped her dead in her over-ambitious tracks. Typical woman: quitting the moment the going got tough.
Why couldn't they have supported Gove? Was he not pretty enough for them then? If he had dressed up as a woman would they have been more likely to support him? These pathetic men who still want their mummy couldn't bring themselves to support Gove because they wanted their leader and PM to be like their mummy, so they pretended Gove was guilty of some great betrayal and that he owed Boris some kind of duty of honour not to stand.
Gove was guilty of no more than being a man and changing his mind: a woman's prerogative but clearly not a man's. Whither gender equality?
See how these infantilised and emasculated middle-aged men, clueless about male solidarity, let the remainer May in to stuff her cabinet full of women.
These Brexiteers have somehow maneuvered themselves into getting a double whammy of what we don't want: a woman and a remainer as PM. ALL BECAUSE THEY WANTED THEIR MUMMY.
When politicians are turkeys voting for Xmas, you know your country is just a turd in the toilet that hasn't been quite flushed away yet.
And all because grown men still want their mummy. Disgusting and contemptible.
Will Tory MPs really put resentment and revenge above public interest and punish Gove for saving the country twice over?— Melanie Phillips (@MelanieLatest) July 7, 2016
The Tories have created their very own version of Clinton v Trump. Never was their description as the 'stupid party' more richly deserved.— Melanie Phillips (@MelanieLatest) July 7, 2016
Now Brexiteers can see what they achieved by dumping Michael Gove. As I said, there's no more stupid party than the British Conservatives.— Melanie Phillips (@MelanieLatest) July 11, 2016
While Tory MPs could have ignored Paul Dacre of the Mail supporting May, they did not. Paul Dacre must also take part of the blame. https://www.theguardian.com/media/greenslade/2016/jul/01/paul-dacre-daily-mail-plays-tory-kingmaker-theresa-mayRemain-dominated Tory MPs now imposed Remain PM on Brexit-majority party and national electorate. What a travesty. But all too predictable.— Melanie Phillips (@MelanieLatest) July 11, 2016
Why did Dacre support May? Because he thought he was betting on a horse, probably, just like the all the dumbshit Tory MPs who thought Gove wouldn't be quite popular enough with the Tory membership because his legs weren't shapely or his skirt short enough or because he didn't remind them of their mummy or granny enough. Unprincipled, infantilised and emasculated British men are strangers to principle and beyond contempt. Even the men who want the right things for the right reasons are pathetically venal. No wonder this country is fucked.
And so, I assume, are my chances of getting a column in The Mail.
