Football365: Questions for Birmingham City over links to controversial political party

Enjoy. I’ve just posted the following comments, and invite you to post your own comments after the Football365 article.

I’ve rarely read a more inaccurate piece on our political party, founded in 2013. The event is not our annual conference, but the fourth International Conference on Men’s Issues http://icmi18.wordpress.com. It will be held over July 6-8. Last year we hosted the second conference at Excel London http://icmi16.wordpress.com. People attended from 20 countries. Among the 15 speakers was Philip Davies MP, speaking on ‘The Justice Gender Gap’. A video of his talk is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VoFdG4cSAM.

I am NOT a ‘known Birmingham City fan’, despite the excellent shirt, but I wish the club every success. We had a great deal of engagement with both Blues and Aston Villa fans before and after the game last Sunday, and plan to promote the conference at other Blues home fixtures in future.

Our party website is http://atomic-temporary-215937230.wpcomstaging.com. Our 2015 general election manifesto https://j4mb.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/d52a1-141228-v10-general-election-manifesto-rgb.pdf. Janet Bloomfield’s article, ’13 reasons women lie about being raped’ https://www.avoiceformen.com/mens-rights/false-rape-culture/13-women-who-lied-about-being-raped-and-why-they-did-it/. Jonathan Taylor’s article, ’10 reasons false rape allegations are common’ https://www.avoiceformen.com/sexual-politics/ten-reasons-false-rape-accusations-are-common/.

One of the factors we considered when selecting a venue for the 2018 conference was proximity to the constituency of Birmingham Yardley, the home of the odious Jess Phillips MP, a woman selected from an all-women shortlist. She won our Toxic Feminist of the Month award in November 2015, after trying (but failing) to stop Philip Davies’s application to hold the first-ever debate on men’s issues in the House of Commons. Her award can be found here https://atomic-temporary-215937230.wpcomstaging.com/toxic-feminists-of-the-month/.

We look forward to welcoming many football fans – of both sexes – to our conference next July. The venue is perfect.

  1. Not a football fan so I don’t know what Birmingham City’s shirt is like. But anything that discombobulates Ms Phillips is all to the good.
    Over the years surveys pretty consistently come back with the fact 82%+ of the population, regardless of sex, prefer a male manager

  2. It seems one must belong to the drivel that is face book or twitter to post a reply on football 365, and I have no more time to waste going round in circles.
    But here is what would like to have said…

    That j4mb in general, and Mr. Buchanan in particular, should attract such inaccurate and disingenuous attempted (and failing) character assasination ploys would tend to suggest to me that he is on the right lines in taking the position he does – otherwise why bother?

    Only an argument that is squarely on target will usually attract such opposition.

    I notice also that the party’s own name is inclusive of ‘women’, hardly likely if it were not sensible of it’s desire to be socially responsible and inclusive.

    But then it is characteristic of any new idea whose time has come that it provokes resentment from those who cannot, or will not change and move with the times.

  3. So many great comments in supports of men and boys and free speech, the article really seems to have backfired on the author and its great free advertising too!

    Seems football fans are becoming knowledgeable when it comes to equality issues, looks like the choice of venue was a smart one.
