SNP deputy chief at Westminster, Kirsten Oswald, stated his “steadily offensive remarks may have a dangerous influence on many younger individuals and should be referred to as out.”

Tom Quinn of consuming dysfunction charity Beat additionally slammed the “fat-phobic” quip.

He urged the PM to “restrict his feedback of different MPs to their actions, not appearances”

"Might I embody my Granny’s Christmas cake recipe?”

She replied: “You assume it’s a joke? Says all of it.”
