Livid with the Labour Party Far from being champanions of the poor, vulnerable or disabled they have pilloried them to such an extent that they have normalised abuse towards them, acted as enablers for other parties to pile on them & use them as scapegoats for political failures

THINGS I DONT DEBATE WITH MEN : 1. Abortion 2. Breastfeeding 3. Menstruation 4. Female body hair 5. Birth Control 6. Access to feminine hygiene products Why? Because NONE of those involve the male body & therefore don't create any valid MALE OPINIONS
