Now women can use special apps to anonymously report “harassment” at work. Men won’t even know who their accuser is. Orwell would be proud.

Because not disregarding facts at a feminist's request (orders?) is sexist.

That woman is the bloody shadow foreign secretary, and still claims that the actual French foreign secretary (it's a ministry in France, but anyway) is not a serious matter.

It's just one of the main chaps she'd be talking to about Brexit is she ever got the real job, and not a pretend title.

Brexit is probably misogynist anyway...

[–]Lethn 5 points6 points7 points 9 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

This falls back to the tactics we've all been seeing where instead of answering questions they throw accusations at people and try to make it about that rather than staying on topic. Here we see hard left politicians putting it into practice, it's actually amazing how much they do it even for the most basic conversations.

[–]geniice 3 points4 points5 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Its much the same strategy David Cameron and Nicky Morgan (members of the conservative party and this people I hope you will accept are not hard left) were using when they refused to answer times table questions. Politicians don't like answering such questions because if they get it right they gain nothing and if they get it wrong it doesn't look good.

[–]Lethn 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Oh absolutely, all of them do it, but I found that only the leftists, particularly the women try to use accusations of sexism and racism in order to distract from the topic at hand. The other politicians on the right just try to change the subject or start going through manifesto for the next hour unless the interviewer has the balls to tell them to shut up.

[–]Rethgil 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

They would NEVER have dared to refer to the interviewers gender though to insult them would they? They'd have lost their job if they did this to women interviewers as men. The example is not equivalent. Whereas female politicians have been seen doing this all over the world lately, in Australia, Canada, America and Britain. Any males that did similar had their jobs taken away.

David Cameron's far too polished to do that. Someone like Jacob Rees-Mogg might.

They'd have lost their job if they did this to women interviewers as men.

Shadow cabinet is an unpaid position. It isn't a job.

Citation needed.

Is it just me or aren't those tactics you describe typical feminist tactics? The tactics of people who are usually over emotional? Not saying this to insult them but its just what we've seen everyday from them.

[–]Lethn 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yes, they're the same, that's what I'm pointing out this is why I believe that a lot of feminists especially the ones from university who go to these gender studies degrees and so on have clearly had training in how to respond like this to try and throw off their political opponents.

Problem is it only works if people aren't aware of it and if they won't dare stand up for themselves.

Since june. During which time labour are have been focusing on their leadership contest. Yes this means the UK doesn't really have a fuctional opposition at the moment but we already knew that.

It's just one of the main chaps she'd be talking to about Brexit is she ever got the real job, and not a pretend title.

Nope. Next election isn't until May 2020. Unless triggering article 20 is left until after May 2018 then no labour politician will be negotiating Brexit.

[–]BDMR_lurker 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Since june

She gets to be shadow secretary with no previous experience of foreign relations?

And, even if. It's now September. You'd think she could have read a little.

Next election isn't until May 2020.

If it does indeed happen, Brexit could very well be still dragging on by then.

There's no set date for invoking article 20, and the 2 year period for negociating can apparently be strechted indefinitely through a few technicalities.

[–]geniice 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Well yes. Corbyn doesn't have enough MPs prepared to be in the shadow cabinet left to form a complete shadow cabinet.

And, even if. It's now September. You'd think she could have read a little.

She may have done (although she also needs to keep up with her work as a constituency MP) but reading and memorising something are not the same. Do you know who your local councillor (or equivalent under your political system) is?

If it does indeed happen, Brexit could very well be still dragging on by then.

Even if it is France has elections due before that date.

[–]BDMR_lurker 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Good point, but she's the current shadow secretary. She's supposed to observe and criticize the actual secretary.

With apparently little knowledge of his job. Not impressed.

Not just Brexit. Calais is where there are huge numbers of illegal immigrants coming over from France to England and it's created a lot of animosity between the U.K and France.

Male politician doesn't know answer, he's stupid. Female doesn't know, male interviewer is sexist. Female always right, male always wrong.

Glad someone took time to post this here. Really p*ssed me off to see this, and shows what happens when you have all woman shortlists that insist on choosing women for jobs over men regardless of ability, self control or logic. Labour has become a joke because it has had to pander to the female vote since moving even further to the Left and thus losing so much support except for the crazies. So now its both unelectable AND incompetent. Great.
