Tories accuse Angela Raynor of "doing a Basic Instinct"

Bloody hell..
What a sorry state of affairs..

Now I’m furious??

Rayner told Lorraine this morning that she is wearing trousers to avoid judgement.

James Heappey while speaking calmly about Ukraine this morning on BBC became angry when Angela Rayner was mentioned.
He sent his apologies to 'Ange' for the comment made about her and said it is up to men to stop this mysogenistic behaviour.

Interesting Wikipedia entry for the journalist who wrote the original MoS article.

I think "they" and that includes more than the government, don't like women who get above their station in life.

I think it's been long known that the British Government hates women.

My mother knew what ‘common’ meant. Eating in the street, ditto smoking, going out the house with curlers in and best of all, being no better than you ought to be.

I have my own modern view of what common means. It is not Angela Rayner

We need more mps who have the decency to keep their lumpy bits to themselves, like Mr. Snooze Mogg , pictured here, displaying his intelligence and enthusiasm.

OK that had me laughing out loud.!

Well really!
Lumpy crotches now!!!
My delicate sensibilities can't take much more!

Sorry to have upset your sensibilities MisAdventure. Try smelling salts , they work wonders when having the vapours!

Cvd66!answer run for the hills,,don't look back.,if you are talking of yourself, seek medical help, your children need it.

To refer to a person as common,mdon't think I ever have, is to say they are not well mannered and tasteless. For example, you don't attend meetings with your skirt up yo your pants or boobs out for all to see, that shouts look at me. The focus is on your legs or your boobs. As a former wearer of the tiniest mini skirt, I would never have gone to a a business meeting, see a solicitor etc or any formal occasion dressed like that.To be taken seriously present yourself accordingly. I would never employ a guy in shorts, open shirt to the waist, his medallions flashing. Not an an image most people would appreciate.Bit fed up with all these women whinging about equal rights we have it. If you encounter it tackle it.

Nope.
As if we would ever, ever allow that, with our great judgement.

Think - what if she had maybe 6 or is it 7 children by different partners, cavorted with a male pole dancer, left her husband when he was ill to shack up with a man 20 years her junior and then had two more children? How would the men's reaction be to that?

Who are you talking about, CvD66

There can’t be anyone like that in a senior position, can there?

Get a life ladies!!! Life is difficult and unfair. Just get on with it. I'm fed up with women complaining. Instead of complaining, get on with life, prove your worth and we'll all get there. Do I mind not getting a seat on a train and being pushed out of the way rushing for the train, being abused etc etc. just because a group of women want to be equal to men. Don't you get it? We are equal as human beings, we just have to prove our equality in other ways. If we are as strong and equal as we think, this shouldn't be a problem. Unfortunately, I'm old school and want to be feminine and a total female but if I do it correctly I can have the other benefits men have if I go the right way about it.

Your comments make little sense.

You are fed up with women complaining so I assume you think they should just suck it up when they are falsely accused of using their sexuality as a lure? Is that what 'getting on with it' means?

And what "other ways" do you think we should use to prove our equality?

And what, in God's name, is a "total female" - and how are we supposed to "do this correctly" to have the other benefits men have?

Do you even know what you are talking about?

I don't know what normative determinism is.
Should I pull me slax up over me knees and hope nobody realises?

My eyes glazed over ....
Good thing I'm going to have an eye test tomorrow ?

Aaaahh, Wong...

A bit of nominative determinism there, I think.

Or a windup...
