Mother is jailed for subjecting her children to needless surgery so she could claim £375,000 in benefits – despite doctor’s warning THREE YEARS before she was arrested

Our thanks to Tim for this. The piece starts:

A mother who forced her children to have a decade of unnecessary surgery in a £375,000 benefits scam was jailed today as it emerged she could have been stopped three years earlier.

Paediatrician Dr Susanna Hart wrote to other specialists at world renowned hospitals in 2010 raising concerns the children were at risk but their mother was not arrested until 2013.

The 49-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, [our emphasis] tricked doctors into believing her children were suffering from a host of serious health conditions for more than a decade.

For receiving £375,000 in a benefts scam related to needless surgery, the woman was given a seven-year-long prison sentence. We have estimated that some people who specialise in other needless surgery – the non-therapeutic circumcisions of male minors – can expect to earn over £2 million over their criminal careers. We’d like to see them serve lengthy mandatory prison sentences in future.

New Statesman: Could YOU be the next whiny feminist of the month? Meet the Justice for Men and Boys party.

Priceless. So much nonsense in such a short piece, but two extracts should give you a flavour. The first:

While the party has fielded candidates in elections, when The Staggers checked with the Electoral Commission, it could not find Justice for Men and Boys listed as a party.

Presumably The Staggers got her name by being staggered by facts and rational arguments, as feminists invariably are, when they’re not shocked, stunned, or offended by them. We’d expect feminist ‘research’ to reflect feminists’ low IQs, and invariably it does. While The Staggers couldn’t find J4MB listed as a party with the Electoral Commission, it took me under a minute to track J4MB down on the commission’s website, here.

The second extract:

However, there’s no doubt that “Men’s Rights Activists” have become more vocal in recent years. One prominent figure, Roosh V, has organised simultaneous meet ups in 43 different countries. And the movement now has powerful voices – some commentators believe the manosphere’s biggest cheerleader is Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Roosh V has always made it clear he’s not an MRA, and no MRAs of my acquiantance have ever consider him one.

The Guardian and New Statesman took more than a month after the conference to publish their woeful attacks, and the pieces we’ve seen in the past three or four days are presumably the best they could manage. It’s a good thing they weren’t in a rush.

 

The Guardian: Suspend the rightwing Tory MP Philip Davies? No way, he’d love it.

A piece published by The Guardian today. Neither this piece, nor one published by the paper yesterday, appears to have a comments section. Hmm, why might that be?

A flavour of the article by Michael White, associate editor and former political editor:

There are more women in the cabinet and boardroom, but not yet enough, and women’s dominance of the university entrance levels grows every year. Only the other day a female judge, whom a loutish J4MB type called “a bit of a cunt”, replied: “You are a bit of a cunt yourself” before sending him down.

Hmm, so a right-wing racist who shouted obscenities in court is ‘a loutish J4MB type’? Even by the standards of The Guardian, this is scraping the bottom of the barrel. No evidence is presented to substantiate the assertion, of course, possibly because no evidence exists.

I never thought I’d say it, but I’m starting to warm towards The Guardian. It’s become a parody of itself. Happy days.

Sophie ‘Doughnut’ Walker, WEP party Leader, says ‘staggering to hear’ MP Philip Davies claim ‘feminist zealots’ are exaggerating gender inequalities in UK

This piece has just been published. Like all feminists, Sophie ‘Doughnut’ Walker spends much of her time being staggered, shocked and offended by facts and rational arguments, patriarchs’ preferred weapons of choice. It’s time for a major study to be conducted on the IQs of feminists. My firm conviction is that the average feminist’s IQ would be well below that of a particularly dim-witted duck-billed platypus.

The website which hosts Ms Walker’s silly piece boasts the strapline, ‘Supporting the female pipeline’. I expect it’s sponsored by Canesten, but I digress.

Sophie Walker is clearly not content in having won just two of our ‘Lying Feminist of the Month’ awards, and is seeking more, possibly to pass Caroline Criado-Perez’s tally of three. Her bids for more awards in her new article include:

Davies’ case for what he calls the ‘Justice Gender Gap’ overlooks clear evidence to the contrary.

Walker explained that in the UK women entering prison are more likely… to have been sent to prison for their first offence…

According to Walker Davies also denied that violence against women and girls in the UK is a problem.

Tammy Louise Craig, 29, drunk single mother, ‘part blinded’ woman with stiletto in row over chips. Suspended sentence.

Our thanks to Francis for this. An extract:

Recorder Alistair MacDonald QC said: “It is clear you had far too much alcohol to drink that night.” He gave Craig an 18-month prison sentence, but suspended it for two years because she has two young children, one born after the incident, and is the victim of domestic abuse.

He said: “The consequences of jailing you would be absolutely catastrophic as indeed the consequences were for the complainant of this case.”

The end of the article:

Glenn Parsons, defending, said she had never intended to injure the victim and was mortified by the effect her reckless action had had.

 

Philip Davies MP – selected videos

A supporter who’s a Gold party member (only £25.00 pcm) has requested that I write a blog piece linking to key videos of, and concerning, the estimable Philip Davies MP. An excellent suggestion, I thought. In chronological order:

16 October 2012: Philip Davies debunks feminist lies about prison sentencing (14:48)

28 May 2015: Jess Phillips’s WOEFUL maiden speech in the House of Commons (6:39, but it seems longer, which is always the case when this odious harridan speaks. Note the 200+ downvotes from feminists. This video really got under their skins. We must post more videos of her.)

27 October 2015: Jess Phillips seeks to block Philip Davies’s application to debate men’s issues on International Men’s Day (10:34)

19 November 2015: Philip Davies introduces a debate about men’s issues on International Men’s Day (43:17)

8 July 2016: Philip Davies’s presentation ‘The Justice Gender Gap’ at the second International Conference on Men’s Issues, London (44:48)

Arrest first, investigate later in rape cases, says police chief. Lynne Owens, former head of Surrey force called for overhaul after being criticised for its handling of sex crimes

Our thanks to Alan for this. An excerpt:

A 49-year-old arrested by Surrey Police over claims he had raped his former partner said the policy had a ‘catastrophic effect’ on him when he spent four weeks on bail before being told he would not be charged.

‘There was not a shred of evidence in my case. This approach is out of control,’ he told The Sunday Times. ‘It means anyone can turn up in a police station, make an allegation and you will be arrested.’

By ‘anyone’ he means, of course, any woman.

William Collins: In Praise of Richmal Crompton

An excellent piece by William Collins, inspired by two characters invented by the authoress Richmal Crompton – William Brown and Violet Elizabeth Bott. William writes:

The affection in which Richmal Crompton holds her little hero shines forth on every page. There is no trace of toxic masculinity here – though, heaven knows, William’s exploits might provide adequate ammunition for such a thesis. Moreover, the contrast between the former suffragist and a modern feminist could hardly be more stark when Crompton exposes some specifically female character flaws.

We need to pinch ourselves on occasion as a reminder that what we are reading was penned by the adult female Richmal Crompton, and must therefore reflect her own understanding – and, we suspect, her own opinion too. Crompton’s understanding of small boys is all the more remarkable in view of her having had no children of her own, remaining unmarried all her life. There’s no trace here of any desire to redefine masculinity: only to record its juvenile foibles.

The contrast between the warmth which Richmal Crompton displays towards William, an attitude towards boys which was once normal, and the vilification poured upon boys today makes my heart bleed.

Daily Express: Philip Davies blasts ‘sexist’ justice system for ‘discriminating against men’

Our thanks to Kevin for this, published today. The paper is claiming the story as an exclusive, which is curious given it’s been in every significant British newspaper over the past three days. More importantly it’s running a poll asking the following question:

Has feminism gone too far?

You’ll need to click on ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to discover what the consensus is. We can expect the feminist hordes to start tapping ‘No’ very shortly, because clicking on online polls is one of the few things they can manage to do, when not taking photographs of themselves stuffing their faces with cake. We shall then be expected to believe that people who read the Express online think feminism hasn’t gone too far.
