Boris Johnson was described as a “real feminist” – the only five reactions you need

In the battle to win votes, Tory leadership hopefuls have mostly been setting out their stalls in terms of Brexit, but Boris Johnson has gained an unexpected advantage in the clamour to secure the support of women. Having recently described himself as a feminist, he gained an endorsement from a woman who actually is one.

The incredible campaigner against female genital mutilation, Nimko Ali, may have been won over by Boris Johnson’s attitude to the topic, but other people had a difficult time buying into her interpretation.

Boris Johnson’s Tory colleague, Nadine Dorries, rubber stamped the article’s sentiment.

Lecturer and union rep, Mary-Ellen, came up with a very current explanation for Dorries’ position.

Which would also explain why the Government seems to have gone to pot.
