Nicola Sturgeon's head is Photoshopped onto Kim Kardashian's body as Newsnight give leaders the Milifandom treatment

A far more pleasant sight than Farage's gurn atop Daniel Craig's torso

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The producers behind hard-hitting political broadcast Newsnight have once again surpassed themselves with some particularly spectacular closing credits.

Making light of the sudden viral trend of #Milifandom, which sees teenage girls sharing their adoration of the puppy-eyed Labour leader with One Direction-style levels of dedication, they decided to give the other leaders a go by Photoshopping their heads onto famous people's bodies.

Cue Nigel Farage’s gurning chops sitting proudly atop the chiselled body of Daniel Craig as James Bond, emerging from the sea in a pair of Speedos. Nick Clegg becomes the far less attractive second cousin of Poldark.

And SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon? Well, she has her head superimposed on the Kim Kardashian Paper magazine cover that broke the internet last year.

Here’s some more of the media sexism Sturgeon has faced since she won that first leader’s debate.
