Stupid, Woman

Which part of "stupid woman" is inaccurate in the case of Theresa May? Both the adjective and the noun are purely factual. 

I have academic qualifications coming out of my ears, but they have nothing to do with intelligence. Both main parties are increasingly run by autodidacts who never quite saw the point of school. They are not thick. 

Whereas May has never read anything that was not a set book. Meaning that since she stopped being set books, about two thirds of her life ago now, she has read nothing at all. 

In the best tradition of Tony Blair and Margaret Thatcher, she took a degree from Oxford at a very early age and then never bothered to acquire any culture whatever. 

Like them, she has nothing approaching the intellectual resources necessary to be Prime Minister. Yet, like them, she is.

But both main parties are changing. None of those three would get anywhere in either of them if they were starting out now.
