Vorderman said she had been blocked by the minister for women Maria Caulfield on Twitter after saying that Caulfield 'couldn’t be bothered to turn up' for questions by a select committee examining the menopause. She also accused Kemi Badenoch of being 'patronising' and 'insulting' during a discussion about whether the menopause should be a protected characteristic, in which the minister had compared the request to others made by carers, single people or those who had ginger hair or were short.
