Interesting. The Conservative party would do well to rid itself of the woeful MPs who speak of leaving if Jacob Rees Mogg ever becomes party leader – the three MPs quoted in the article are women. The piece ends with a prime example of the type:
Former education secretary Nicky Morgan said a new political party would be “a very bad idea”. Writing for ConservativeHome, she added that likeminded Tories should stay put and push for a more centrist [J4MB: In plain English, even less conservative] policy programme.
“If liberal Conservative MPs [J4MB emphasis] allow ourselves to be drummed out of the Conservative Party, whether by heeding the calls for a new Party or by accepting that our views no longer have a place within our Party, then that would send a terrible signal, not only to the electorate but also to the tens of thousands of Tory members, councillors, donors and supporters who share our views and want us to lead the charge in putting forward a mainstream agenda which appeals to the centre-ground of British politics and, in particular, to younger and future voters.”
What is a liberal Conservative MP? Is it similar to a conservative Socialist MP? The current band of female Conservative MPs are all feminists, whether they publicly self-identify as such, or not.
Justice for Men & Boys 
I suspect the LibDems or Greens would be their spiritual home.

‘Care in the Community’ resulted in the closure of most of their ‘spiritual homes’, and the fuss made when it was revealed that male GPs were routinely prescribing tranquillisers to neurotic women for decades left us with nothing with which to keep troublesome women quiet.

Tens of thousands now? What of the days when the Conservative and Unionist Party boasted hundreds of thousands of members? I am not, never have been and never will be a ‘Tory’, however, I can see that if the few hundreds of ‘mainstream’ Conservatives vociferously promoting radical misandrous feminism were to bugger off and join the WEP, some of those long gone hundreds of thousands may just feel like returning the fold.

Funnily enough the exact same thing happened inside the Labour party when Jeremy Corbyn became leader; Jess Philips even promised to resign if he won the leadership contest a second time, a promise that she alas broke as soon as he was; personally I think it would do this country a power of good to have politicians on both sides of the aisle who actually believe in some of what they preach. Since the Blair creature (starting with might be a better description of him actually) we’ve just had a string of useless technocrats on both sides of the HoC who don’t achieve much and all just sort of blur into each other – anyone really remember Miliband, of bacon sandwich fame? Was he that much different to Cameron or “Gideon”?

Nicky Morgan is about as solid as a wet paper bag in a downpour. She is an inferior quality stage prop made of tissue paper and balsa wood. There is nothing remotely substantial about her. The overwhelming majority of grassroots conservatives would, not only be delighted if Nicky Morgan were to lose her seat, but also jump for joy to welcome Rees-Mogg as leader of the parliamentary party.

Thanks Godfrey, agreed. As always, the question is, why do men keep voting for the blithering idiot, likewise Jess Phillips, Harriet Harman, Anna Soubry, Maria MIller, Yvette Bollocks etc.? Ignorance of gender politics, I guess. Turkeys voting for Xmas.

Because the only options are to vote for someone you don’t like or to stay away. There has to be a reject all option to get rid of candidates like her. People who vote Conservative or any other party don’t get a choice on who will be their candidate.

Yes indeed and I’ve said the same many times, especially aloud in polling stations as I spoil my ballot paper.

It should be pointed out that spoiling your ballot is not equivalent to a reject all option, as
a. It amounts to abstention, not rejection ie against all.
b. All spoilt ballots are lumped in together, those spoilt in error with those spoiltb as protest.
If you think about it in terms of pronciples, not having the right to reject all means that the voter is not sovereign, and if voters are jot sovereign, then it us not a democracy.
We have an elected oligarchy, and it is no accident that is exactly why the political class is out of touch, and quite often out to lunch, when it comes to connecting to their voting base. The lever of power of the voter has been sawed off, well better to say never connected into the voting system.
Its biggest advantage is that it provides a single basket in which all opposition can reside, currently opposition is splintered in such a way that we end up with, at best, the will of the plurarity.
Sorry for going on, its a bug bear of mine and i cant understand why people dont understand the profound potential for change that this simple reform contains.

Does gynocentricism, and similar argument predicated upon a measure of biological determinism, explain the enduring phenomenon of turkeys voting for Xmas? I would say yes.
Female essentialism is the strongest argument that feminism uses to justify its doctrine of female supremacy. However, feminist dependency on the argument of female essentialism is a deeply flawed position, since it is logically inconsistent to be both fully justified by female essentialism and yet simultaneously to deny the wider implications of biological determinism. This is why feminism must relentlessly promote the myth of the ‘patriarchy’ as misdirection and distraction. We are required to be persuaded by biological determinism where it supports the concept of female essentialism, but to discount biological determinism where it undermines the doctrine of female supremacy.
In practical terms, the mindset of ‘turkeys voting for Xmas’ is enabled by aggressive misdirection and endless distraction from the feminist media. There is no space in polite society where any Men’s Issue is permitted to be a legitimate topic of conversation. Why? Because the concept of male fellowship and the ideal of male fraternity have been vigorously suppressed over the last fifty years. To this end, all of the clubs, societies & associations of civil society have been systematically and ruthlessly feminised. There is simply no space in contemporary society for men to be men. Hence, the turkeys vote for Xmas, because what difference would it make anyway?

Perhaps people should start voting for the independents if they can not persuade the association chairmen to refuse their reselection. The problem is these women are often chosen by CCHQ and even if an association rejects them they are overridden.

Much as I admire the eloquence and clarity of “the Mogg” I don’t think he’s necessarily much of an ally to men’s issues. From what I’ve seen he’s more likely to put ladies on pedestals and demand higher standards from Gentlemen. I saw him being pretty damning on fathers who don’t see their children, making the presumption this was because the fathers were uniformly irresponsible.

We really need to discriminate between feminists and women who value men and boys and who, in the case of the latter, accept the differences both physical and sexual.
To me feminists come in two types: those who resent and those who hate men. In my opinion the word Misandrist should be applied to them as frequently and easily as the word Mysoginist is applied to certain types of men.
