It might be, as suggested, that Angie is a bit disgusted by Starmer's sexism, or even by his weak schoolboy humour.
But alternative explanations are that she is too stupid to understand the joke, or that she was preoccupied with working out how she's going to build a million and a half houses despite knowing nothing beyond care work and socialist slogans.
Sam - it's not easy to know what that reaction is, it looks weary to me, but we know what it isn't - cheery fake amusement at the Dear Leader's leaden quip.
Oh come. She knows about being a landlady and tripping the light fantastic with Capital Gains Tax. And anyway, didn't her "care work" turn out to be bogus - she was actually working for the trade union?

dearieme - she must know she has been given an impossible job and sooner or later has to make a significant political move.
I suppose he's surrounded himself with women knowing that the people's party has never elected a female leader.
dearieme - from the beginning it had the feel of quota thinking at work.
