Loose Women star blasted by fans after slamming BA’s new uniform changes

Loose Women star Carol McGiffin has been slammed by fans after her comments on British Airways’ new uniform changes which allow male pilots and flight attendants to wear makeup and carry handbags

Carol McGiffin, the former Loose Women star, has faced criticism from fans following her remarks on British Airways’ decision to provide a non-binary uniform option for its employees.

The 63-year-old shared her views on Eamonn Holmes and Isabel Webster’s GB News show, discussing the airline’s new uniform policy. British Airways has eased its uniform regulations, offering a gender-neutral choice and permitting male pilots and flight attendants to wear makeup and carry handbags.

McGiffin criticised the decision on GB News, stating she didn’t want to see ‘a bloke wearing a skirt’. She elaborated: “Personally I want to see someone walking up and down the aisles looking professional, like a woman, I’m not saying she has to wear a skirt, but I don’t want to see a bloke walking up and down wearing a skirt.”

She further added: “I don’t know why but I am old-fashioned like that. I want to see air stewards and stewardesses looking very, very professional. These are the people you rely on when you are flying and for me, it is not a good idea.” She also claimed that the changes ‘hadn’t gone down well with the crew either’, except with those who identified as non-binary.

She concluded: “People are saying that what they should have done is designed a uniform for the men, a uniform for the women, and a uniform for the non-binary people who want to be whatever they want, but where does it end? Where does it end? How many uniforms do you need?”

Carol’s remarks sparked a wave of online backlash, with many fans expressing their disapproval. One individual commented: “Oh Carol…put all that hateful energy into something more productive,”

Another critic added: “Carol McGiffin is a hateful, old grifter. She knows the only way she can make money is to sink to the level of GB News and pick on marginalised people. Pure scum of the Earth!” A third person chimed in with: “Why are people so triggered by how people want to identify!? Live and let live! No-one wants to see Carol McGiffin spouting utter nonsense again but here we are.”

This controversy follows Carol’s departure from Loose Women, which she attributed to the show becoming ‘too woke’. She revealed that she had been asked to sign a contract that was “totally unjust and unworkable for me”.

In a conversation with Dan Wootton, she stated: “Well put it this way, reading all the comments from the article at the weekend there are a lot of people who think the programme has gone very, very woke.”

Carol then confessed: “Well, neither do I. The whole of mainstream media is very, very woke.”

“You just don’t have to keep forcing this stuff down peoples’ throats, it’s not just ITV, the BBC is probably worse actually and saying that, Channel 4 is probably the worst out of all of them. It’s not a place where I feel I fit in,” she concluded.

“And, even though, you should be having the debates and seeing a difference in opinion, in the typical woke ideals, you don’t really get it anymore, you’re not allowed to say it and if you do, you either get censored or you get cancelled as many people have learnt to their cost.”
