Sali wasn’t being a hypocrite was she? , who’d have thought it
.
She did what she always does, saw it only through the lens of Sali. Didn't argue about the rightness, fairness or otherwise of the policy just that she lives in Brighton and has a mortgage to pay after her divorce. But edited out about having school fees to pay, perhaps realising this wouldn't engender much sympathy with the average This Morning viewer.
I think this might be what the sleight of hand about Botox is also about. Her career is built a lot on her being relatable, whether disorganised "I'll never be a proper mum", big sister giving advice or makeup tips, a working mum juggling it all like the rest if us. Which us why she mentions getting the bus with her "nanna" and growing up in the valleys but not that her mum was 2nd in charge of education for the whole of Gwent.
