It looks like "woman" to me, too. But I've only been lipreading for 35 years instead of 50 and I don't have, like, a degree in lipreading, I'm just your average, normal deaf person.
Interestingly enough, this article was just posted on a deaf website yesterday, before the corbs thing blew up, about the "nebulous" lipreading incident: https://limpingchicken.com/2018/12/18/liam-odell-nebulous-its-time-journalists-stopped-overestimating-lipreadings-accuracy/
"Mouth astrology" is now my favourite name for lipreading

After reading this below and watching the video, I'm now pretty sure it was 'people'.
Some people will probably think it ridiculous there is even an argument around what word he used. But in the debate that followed, many women told stories about being called a 'stupid woman' or an 'irritating woman' and it is clear that sadly peoples' gender is still used to denigrate them in parliament.
