BBC – The Big Questions – “Should men and women be treated equally by the courts?”
A tip of the hat to Jordan Holbrook for making it onto tomorrow’s The Big Questions (BBC1, 10:00 – 11:00). We’ll be posting a video of the programme on our YT channel in due course. I was booked to appear on the programme, but I’ve been replaced by Ally Fogg, a male Guardian “journalist” and mangina. But I repeat myself.
The BBC dream up some mind-boggling questions and headlines, as in this case – “Should men and women be treated equally by the courts?” In June 2017, a question posed on Victoria Derbyshire’s show was, Is male circumcision wrong? (video, 4:46).

Our thanks to Stu for this. A couple of very interesting comments there, click on the “View article comments” black panel.

Enjoy. The comments include this by Saf, a genius who evidently considers a man disagreeing with a woman “rude”:

Ewan Jones interviews William Collins: “Feminism’s War on Boys in the Education System”
Enjoy (video, 1:36:30). In the video description panel:
Ewan Jones talks to William Collins about his work focusing on the impact of feminism on the education system. William asserts that women are dominating the teaching posts in primary, secondary and higher education. They are using teaching methods that work with girls but not with boys. They are also marking boys down for failing to behave like girls. The upshot of this that there are far more females going to university than males. And yet the feminists are still unhappy there are more males than females in a small and ever dwindling number of subjects.
William Collins will be giving a talk at the fourth International Conference on Men’s Issues in London, July 20-22. The speaker list is here.
Here is a link to the articles he has written on the subject of education – http://mra-uk.co.uk/?page_id=2244

Rod Liddle: The DPP’s Alison Saunders was never much cop
Enjoy. I’m 60, and the following particularly resonated with me:
The paradoxes became an absurdity. Sex was suddenly something men did to women, and that’s that. Drunkenness, which is never an excuse in criminal courts, suddenly became one if the female victim was claiming rape. But not for the male. Fortunately, the British public largely refused to swallow this congenital idiocy, this poisoning of justice, and so case after case came to court to be routinely dismissed by juries who showed a hell of a lot less gullibility than the coppers or the DPP. Meanwhile, though, innocent men spent years under suspicion, their lives and careers ruined. The alcohol rule had a special resonance for me as I am 58 years old and no woman will have sex with me unless she is completely blitzed. Now Saunders is gone, maybe I’m back in the game, you lucky ladies.
