What do male politicians think of their own legs?

PM

Available for over a year

The Daily Mail's front page carried the headline: "Nevermind Brexit, who won Legs-it?", next to a photo of Theresa May and Nicola Sturgeon. Some MPs criticised the newspaper for its coverage, describing it as sexist, and there have been over 900 complaints to The Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO), which regulates the newspaper industry. PM decided to ask four politicians - former MP Kim Howells, Johnny Mercer MP, Sir Vince Cable and Sir Desmond Swayne - what they thought of their own legs. (Photo: Men's legs. Credit: Getty Images).
