Historian David Starkey has launched an astonishing attack on the 'victim status' of ethnic minorities and disabled people - and says women are only of average intelligence.
The television presenter also gave his views on the current political class, claiming he did not believe any politician was equipped to be prime minister and the 'real talent has left politics'.
The outspoken 70-year-old said evidence suggested women tended to be of average intelligence, whereas men were either 'very, very bright or very thick', but denied he is sexist.
