Author Douglas Murray has called Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau an “utter bimbo” and accused him of “performative caring” after his party recently lost a byelection.

“It’s very hard to find a true thing he’s ever said, or a sincere thing he’s ever said,” he told Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi.

“He’s an utter bimbo, a phrase that maybe one wouldn’t use on a female politician these days but I’m happy to use of Justin Trudeau.”
