British Prime Minister Michael Gove has gone deep into the matter for a notorious remark with a sexual charge.
Gove was felt by John Humphrys, a feared BBC interviewer. On the question of what he found to be awaiting the popular radio program Today, he replied: “Sometimes I think sitting in the studio is about the same as the bedroom of Harvey Weinstein. You pray that your honesty is still intact when you come out. “

Female politicians, including Scottish Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon, were bewildered by Gove’s remark. Sturgeon sent a tweet to the world in which she said abuse and rape are not joking. “She added that her indignation had nothing to do with any female lack of humor.
