I think he’s trying to be funny- mind you, at least we now know that he knows what a curtain in an Istanbul brothel looks like.

Quentin Let's Not
Utterly disgusting. What’s the implication here? She’s ‘foreign’?!?
Does Letts have extensive experience of such establishments?
Good fucking grief! 🤢
Letts demonstrated his true colours several times on GMB, angry little man unable to take criticism but more than happy to judge others
From the protectors of women and girls!
"Quentin Letts's boyish hairstyle was barely disturbed as he knocked another one out over his favourite picture of Bridget Philipson..."
He is so disgusting. Just gross. How can anyone still read this shite?
Letts is a very disturbed man
Vile, offensive and beyond disgusting. I HATE this ‘paper’.
WTF. And they pay him to write that? 🤮
And he knows this how?
He must have chortled to himself at the sheer brilliance of his wit - what an idiot.
I feel unclean just reading this. It's like one of Nadine Dorries' efforts.
Why is it when a man criticises a woman’s appearance he’s *always* a miserable looking cnut?
It's why he has to visit brothels!🤮
A fugly, unfuckable, repulsive twat
This shit keeps my blood on a rolling boil 🤬🤬🤬
I consider myself a normal man, and this shit does exactly the same to me.
Unbelievable. Also I thought the most embarrassing reason to go to Istanbul was for a hair transplant, but it seems Quentin's been for other reasons.
Absolutely attack her politics, but when a male (was going to say "journalist", but it's Letts so nah...) resorts to attacking a woman's appearance and a male editor approves said tripe for publication, something's just not right.
Aren't you even impressed that he's been to an Istanbul brothel?
Letts is a very creepy guy and comments about Phillipson’s hair just underline that fact.
He’s such an absolute creep.
Quentin Letts' weirdly sweaty face made out of floppy ham
This not a newspaper - it’s a disgusting smear rag
is
Poor Quentin. All that whiteness and maleness and privilege (not to mention a name with a silent U), and yet… he has to guttersnuffle for a fascist rag to feel relevant. No wonder he’s prickly about women in positions of influence. Imagine all the actual useful things one could write about.
'guttersnuffle' is brilliant! Love it 🤣
He should have to wear that sentence on a chain round his neck for the rest of his days. People used to have shame, I know they did.
My late mother wrote a letter of complaint to the Daily Mail about him and got a smarmy letter back from him justifying himself. 🤣 He wrote a horrible article about my last boss, saying she was cruel and had nylon stockinged pins. She was the kindest person I’ve ever met and invariably wore trousers
Rothermere's family, proud supporters of fascists since the 1930's. This vile, r/wing rag has persuaded the electorate to vote against their own interests for decades. Interesting to note the complex tax avoidance arrangements of their entitled, non dom owners: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoun...
He's one of those slimy shit stains you always hope will fail catastrophicly....much like Harry Cole...
I really fear that Ms Phillips will be the next to be sacrificed on the alter of the privileged press pack. Another outspoken, working class woman, who's worked her whole life to improve the lot of the less fortunate will be just too much for Letts and his ilk to bear.
*Philipson.
I defer to Quentin Letts’ first hand experience of the furnishings in Turkish brothels.
1. Someone from an impoverished background who is now an Oxbridge graduate and member of the cabinet should be celebrated 2. The never ending vile sexualisation used to undermine women is sickening
FFS!
His parents really should have used prophylactics or the withdrawal method.
Thank you Letts for your not very secret reveal to visits to Turkish brothels. Why do these strangely disturbed people never get that their abhorrent views say more about them than the others that they relentlessly attempt to discredit?
I'm sure Phillipson will be gutted to hear the Daily Mail doesn't like her hairdo😊
The whole column reeks of misogyny.
The byline is enough for me to conclude you're right. The man has form. When he was on HIGNFY laughing about the dossier someone compiled of tips from the Westminster women's whisper network about "handsy" (or worse) men about the House, I wanted to throw something at the TV.
He's awful. The column is hateful and disgusting. bsky.app/profile/snig...
Questing Letts in a poisonous toad, who cannot stand the fact that we all know.
Quentin, bloody spellchecker!
Even spell checker is offended by the name ‘Quentin’
The entirety of his published writing for the last 30+ years is hateful and disgusting.
of all the sleazy, RW old hacks - Letts is the Lizard King - horrible piece of work - jumped up, self-entitled, glib public schoolboy in the Johnson mould.
Oh ffs
QL’s weirdly sparse and mousy locks straddled his head like the used doormat of a third-rate knocking shop on the back streets of Morecambe.
Just when you think the Waily Heil couldn't get any worse and has reached rock bottom, they anti-ingeniously open a trapdoor to the next layer. Brexit Champion, Viscount Rothermere HATES Labour, paying taxes & healthy patriotism. So do criminals and traitors. Odd mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-mail/ ☝🏻
Next Week - Serialisation of Quentin Lett's time in Istanbul Brothels
Ugh, ffs 🙄
Even more incentive to vote for her now !💪
One can only wonder if Louise Brooks in Pandora’s Box was often playing when his parents punished him for putting his hands down his trousers in public
whaaaaaaaaaaat??
How dare they write like this about a woman in public service - these people are disgusting
My guess is he knows about the locations of which he speaks.
Nah, he’s stood across the street sniggering and sweating, but never actually gone in.
Quentin is picking on the looks of someone who, by any standard but certainly in the context of frontline politics, is very good-looking. It doesn't make sense.
Oh dear, Quentin. From your flabby jowels to your ill fitting spectacles, hair a little thin at the front too. How dare you spake forth your mysogynistic flather, Praet that you are.
Oh, well said Bindy!
I have my moments. I thank you. 😉
Can’t see the post but frequent and several id say
The Istanbul Brothel, Quentin. Is it in the room with us right now?
What does he know about brothels in Instanbul?
Quentin Letts looks like the sort of person who would get thrown out of Waitrose for stroking aubergines…. (See how this works Quentin? No, probably not)
There aren’t enough words to describe how vile this rag and its editors are.
Makes one realise the incels are the modern version of the abusive husbands who thankfully, can no longer treat their wives as property.
Letts not shall we
Quentin Letts’ weirdly misogynistic prose festered like a lingering fart in a non-dom Viscount’s redundant newsroom.
Whoever gets the job, they ALL know that they will have to put up with this crap. No man would be subjected to these aggressive attacks.
It would be a terrible shame if Quentin Letts were to suffer a horrific digestive episode/gardening accident
Or both, simultaneously
I remain very open to offers
Eww, yuck. Nasty man.
He's a ridiculous and vile human being... but the mail is jam-packed with obnoxious twats!
They supported hitler, Thatcher, Johnson, truss and now Farrightidge so a long history of backing the very worst examples of humanity
Quentin Letts is such a poisonous little pimple. A preposterous pipsqueak. A purulent little prick.
At least we know what Letts does for recreation. Someone should check the birthday book
Is he *still* employed to write endlessly snide, 'too-clever-by-half' utter drivel? Who even reads this garbage any more?
Honestly is someone named 'Quentin Letts' even a real person?
Unfortunately yes.
Sad!
Ok. So how does he know?
Oooo Mr Letts posts on Facebook on the Ross on Wye noticeboard - strangely he ignores my observations about his journalistic standards 🤷♀️🤣🤣
Quentin’s hard drive definitely needs investigating by the police.
Unlike Quentin Letts I don’t know what a brothel curtain looks like. He’s outing himself. What a rookie…
Quentin Letts needs to explain how he's so familiar with Turkish Brothels.
I wasn't sure where that sentence was going, but jesus....
How am I supposed to teach my children that being considerate to others is how to behave and how to get on in the world when this abusive, entitled misogynist has had a successful Fleet Street career since 1987?
Hey Viz Please cancel my subscription I have found something much funnier!
Suddenly struck me - so called "journalists" who write this sort of shit are just journalistic shock jocks. The paper obliged for the shock clicks it gets. Would he say it to her face - of course he wouldn't. He'd crumble in front of her like the little boy he is.
Misogyny has no place in society - and neither does trans misogyny, transphobia, or homophobia. Phillipson still needs to be called out as a hateful bigot.
I can only guess that Quentin Letts has frequented quite a few Istanbul brothels to be able to make that observation.
The very thing I was just about to say ☺️
Or fantasised that he has.
🤣
I think you flatter him.
I imagine he must pay for the attention
I was going to say that. Quite an admission I’d have thought
Letts not, eh. 🙈
Just read it. What a nasty little piece of sexist tripe.
Quentin: Letts not.
FFS
Creepy
Also, he has NEVER been a "Top". Vers Bottom at most.
He seems very aware of, familiar even, with the decor at a Turkish brothel?
Creepy it is! Sounds like something from a third rate Mills and Boon! Sorry showing my age.
Is he writing Mills and Boons on the side and got his manuscripts confused?
Quentin Letts is just vile. I don't understand why anyone would read him.
What does he know about black satin curtains in Istanbul brothels? Or is he just trying to make his readers mentally associate her with things they are against ie. Muslims and sex workers?
also begs the question, how would he know?
It is weirdly precise, to coin a phrase
He said what now 😳
What a piece of shit. Another one on my ‘trapped in an elevator with’ list.
Big Quentin is just annoyed that the girls including Mrs Quentin don't want to go near Little Quentin...
Creepy Letts, why am I not surprised.
WTF? Isn’t this harassment under the equality act? Deffo one for a complaint direct & to IPSO and the equality commission www.readerseditor.dmgmedia.co.uk/contact ico.org.uk/for-the-publ... www.equalityhumanrights.com/about-us/con...
Letts is a creepy weirdo nonentity that should be unemployed
Quintin Letts’ fringe stuck out like the pubic mustache in Boris Johnson’s mankini.
misogyny, Islamophobia and Orientalism triple whammy 🙄
I can't completely imagine what being paid to be cynical does to a human soul - but this headline hints at it.
Fucker hit every branch on the way down….
Letts is a fucking nonce….
It's equally revealing about the awful individual who wrote it and the cretins whose approval he so desperately seeks.
Ghastly!
I try to avoid resorting to ad hominem so I'll put it this way: the opinions of Quentin Letts are vile, creepy, snobbish and smarmy.
@sturdyalex.bsky.social Entitle Qunts
Seriously though, I’d be incredibly happy if I never heard or read the name Quentin Letts ever again
He is a horrible, horrible little man.
🤢
A man who looks like this has no business talking about anyone's hair, full stop.
How does he go through life without being punched?
I am sure that face has touched a couple of knuckles over the years
It's what his audience expects , they'll write any old shitvfor ££££
Don’t let him or the paper off that easily by saying this is what their readers want. They set the agenda and many incels would be embarrassed to publicly express this pattern of disgusting misogyny.
The incels of Twitter and the rightwing press are mutually reinforcing actors.
I'm not letting them off - they are in the business of selling newspapers
Of course, although I would suggest they also have owners (and therefore) writers keen to undermine democracy, decency, regulations etc and sow hate (for personal profit) independently of newspaper sales.
It's good that sex workers redefined themselves, so I can now say that Letts and his fellow grifters are prostitutes without demeaning people who are doing an honest job.
They're good old-fashioned whores who worship the false idols of power and adulation.
There's no difference anymore between the Twitter gutter and the right-wing press - the content and the tone is identical.
'Quentin Letts' eyes twinkled like a serial killer in Tesco as he stared longingly at an oven ready canneloni for two. His deepest desire was one day, to move silkily through the garden centre wearing a perfect copy of dead haddock, whilst serenaded by a male voice choir full of just Davids'
🤣
Lord Rothermere made that special face only recognised by Daily Mail editors as he finally managed to find the wind up string buried deep inside Quentin Letts colon. The delayed gush of an exiting hand told the editors to expect a winter of significant bullshit for the opinion pages.
Loser ‘journalist’ needs to get a life - starting at a gym to begin with.
