On Sue Gray I did also wonder if there is an element of snobbery alongside the misogyny as she's not part of the Oxbridge club, etc.

And with KS. Contrast treatment of KS vs B Johnson. Tim Stanley (DTel) once admitted on Twtr that irl “KS is genuinely charming, Ian Blackford funny, not pompous, <sb else> likeable”. I asked him why he perpetuated entirely false pictures of these people. No reply.
