They say, you can’t tell the players, without a scorecard.
My primary interest in this article is the motherhood question.
I do not know the answer to your question; but being the BBC...or anything on the internet ...

One thousand percent it is and they don’t intend to lose the Conservative Party leadership contest for the next Prime Minister.
Andrea Leadsom must be nuked into oblivion and the woman described by one of her backers as a supporter of ‘social justice’ not to mention a EU remainer who now claims to support leaving (Theresa May) must be imposed on the UK as the next PM.

Peter Hitchens (in his columns) has described Theresa May, the insider backed candidate for Conservative Party leader and the next Prime Minister, as a ‘left-leaning liberal’ and ‘politically correct’.

She’s 56, so it’s unlikely that it’s an issue for her now, regardless.
