She's probably sat right now with a scientific calculator trying to work out the figure of speech.

I think it's time that we all come together and give her the support that she needs.

She also has diabetes which could explain tge loss of sensation in her feet with wrong shoes on. I have no doubt she is ill
No, I am diabetic and have never managed to put my shoes on the wrong feet. She is part imbacile to compound a medical condition she needs to get help for.

I listened to a podcast about her a few weeks ago, without knowing it was about her (as I missed the beginning) until it gradually dawned on me who was speaking.

Until then, she came across as erudite, passionate, knowledgable and pretty much exactly the person you should be voting for if her views aligned with your way of thinking.

I'm not sure if that means the press has done a hatchet job on her (seems unlikely the way she answers questions), she has some sort of medical condition or simply just knows when and how to turn it on/off. Whatever it is, she is an enigma. It's very easy to call out those who have raised above the status quo but it's my experience that those who do (raise above) still have something-I can't think of any who have succeeded who haven't got something special.

Whatever it is she has, it may be deeply hidden but she must have something.

This post is not an endorsement by the way-I'd be terrified of her in charge of any office but she can't be that inept can she?

Good stuff, but she can't even put her own shoes on.

Exactly! Who goes out not only with 2 unmatched shoes on, but both left feet?! It’s utter madness. It wouldn’t even feel right.

Last time I saw her on QT she looked an sounded like something was seriously amiss with her teeth and didn't sound right generally (even for her).

If she does have an illness like this, she needs to be stepping down and looking after herself, and her colleagues need to help her in that.

She's always been an idiot...but wouldn't wish those sort of illnesses on anyone.

Like Greta, good with a script.
