A journey through the facepalm that was the Mail's reshuffle coverage

A journey through the facepalm that was the Mail's reshuffle coverage

We're not sure if you have heard about this yet, but David Cameron promoted several women in his reshuffle yesterday. Or, as the Daily Mail described it, during "ladies' day" at Westminster.

This tweet from Nick Robinson during the event was a harbinger of the doom to follow.

Because a stretch of road + women = catwalk.

The reaction was understandable.

We had a go at fixing their headline.

So did Twitter...

It wasn't just the catwalk headline. Femail correspondent Catherine Ostler gave her verdict on each female minister's outfit.

This is what she made of Esther McVey's bag. And Penny Mordaunt's outfit.

Even Nick Clegg noticed it.

... It makes you wonder why there aren't more women in politics.
