Robert Jenrick took aim at accusations he’s sexist and ended up blowing his own head off in magnificent style
Time now to return to Conservative, sorry, Reform UK MP Robert Jenrick, who was on Times Radio on Monday denying accusations of sexism against women MPs and journalists.
Absolute nonsense, Jenrick told @KateEMcCann, co-presenter of Times Radio’s breakfast show, except the manner in which he did it instantly became exhibit A for the prosecution. Do listen to the end (it’s not long, hnonest).
“If you, Kate, think that this is important, then you need your head checking.”
Robert Jenrick says he finds suggestions he's dismissive of female journalists and politicians "offensive".@RobertJenrick | @KateEMcCann pic.twitter.com/YLyKTMMwru

A glorious self-own for the ages. And these people surely said it best.

I’m not sure Jenrick telling @KateEMcCann to check her head is the best defence against suggestions he is dismissive of female journalists. https://t.co/EXBe2geTZK

If a woman is accusing you of being condescending you should probably not then be condescending to her to beat the charge.

Condescending?

Robert Jenrick is that bloke in almost every meeting, who feels the need to interrupt any female speaking with a belittling off-colour remark: and then informs the speaker that she just can't take a joke.

Being dismissive of a female journalist when a female journalist is asking you about your dismissive attitude towards female journalists might not be the best way of responding, Robert!
Don't be offended… set a better example!— 💙 Phil Jones 🍊 (@PhilJonesy3) January 19, 2026

Perfect
Jenrick responds to a question about his attitude to female journalists by a female journalist by saying she needs her head checking

Bobby, you are a condescending prick. Have your head checked, if you can pry it out of Nige's nethers, that is.

To conclude …
🚨 Say it ain’t so.
Kate (Times Radio) asks Rob about his deliberate mispronunciation of Kemi’s name and his repeated misogynistic tone toward women and female journalists.
Guess his response?
“You need to get your head checked.”
