In February, Brandon Lewis MP gave a talk to the Reform Think Tank – here (video, 27:51). A supporter has kindly sent me his 9-page document consisting of a critical review of the speech, and a refutation of the Independent Review of the Conditions of Service for Fire and Rescue Staff in England (2015) by Adrian Thomas. We thank him for making his work available to us for dissemination.

Our thanks to James for this excellent piece in the Mail. You’ll need to scroll through plenty of ads, but it’s worth it. The piece starts with the following Tweet from radfem Emily Lindin:

Here’s an unpopular opinion: I’m actually not at all concerned about innocent men losing their jobs over false sex assault / harassment allegations.

Our thanks to Jeff for this. 9 per cent of engineers in the UK are female. This is not, of course, a problem. An extract from the piece:

A survey of more than 1,000 children aged nine to 16 showed that fewer than one in 10 described a typical engineer as a woman.

You have to worry about the children who believed a ‘typical engineer’ IS a woman. Tens of millions of pounds of taxpayer’s money have been wasted in an effort to push more young women into engineering. With few exceptions, women don’t want to become engineers. The career doesn’t tick the boxes that, say, becoming a doctor does. And after having their first child, few female engineers return to work as engineers.

The WEC held another meeting yesterday, both Philip Davies and Jess Phillips, The Yardley Gob, were present. She was gurning from the outset, as always the narcissistic teenager finding herself in a room full of adults. The video footage is here.

The first witness was Margot James, the first openly lesbian Tory MP. Starting at 10:24:24, she stated the following:

Research shows that fathers do less than half of childcare tasks within the home, at the moment, and that places too great a burden on women.

After this mind-numbingly stupid statement – I’m surprised Philip Davies didn’t laugh out loud – I couldn’t go on. It’s too early in the day to engage with idiocy at this level.

Karen on fine form (video, 19:01).

Our thanks to Jeff for this lengthy but fascinating piece in the Mail (in the Femail section, tellingly) The start of the piece:

A British dating expert has delivered a scathing critique of English women – and strongly recommended that blokes date Eastern European girls instead.

Richard La Ruina, 37, from Cambridge has published two bestselling-books on seduction and was named ‘Britain’s number one superstar chat-up artist’ by a newspaper in 2008.

The dating expert says that British women have become entitled and overweight and firmly advises clients to avoid homegrown ladies and go for Eastern European girls – who are more feminine, well mannered and prettier in his opinion.

Our thanks to Steve for this piece on CNN, the Clinton News Network. The start of the piece:

At a time when issues of sexual harassment and consent are in the news, and with the holidays just around the corner, the Girl Scouts have released a recommendation about how parents can help young girls handle affection.

A “Reminder” post on the GSUSA website tells parents, “She doesn’t owe anyone a hug. Not even at the holidays.”

The “hugs” here are obviously of a non-sexual nature: Doting aunts and grandparents who are inclined to big embraces and cheek pinches at holiday gatherings.

However, the GSUSA’s post says this could set the stage for unexpected emotional consequences.

“Think of it this way, telling your child that she owes someone a hug either just because she hasn’t seen this person in a while or because they gave her a gift can set the stage for her questioning whether she ‘owes’ another person any type of physical affection when they’ve bought her dinner or done something else seemingly nice for her later in life,” the piece reads. [J4MB: ‘Seemingly’ nice? What hatchet-faced harpie wrote this stuff? One who is rarely if ever asked out for dinner by men, we can be very sure.]

Wow, isn’t this encouraging girls to become Special Snowflakes, like Laura Bates? They shouldn’t have to even pretend to like (say) their grandparents? Appalling, and cruel towards the people who’ve probably done a lot for them.

The writer of the piece is AN Willingham, who I immediately suspected of being a young woman (likewise when names such as Sam, Eddie etc. are used by journos and others). Her profile is here. I imagine she has to show her ID if she ever wants to buy an alcoholic drink.

Our thanks to Jerry for this.

Our thanks to Ted for this.
