Gender warriors

The feminist virtue-signalling Olympics continues in the Scottish Parliament. Recent proposals have included using taxpayers’ cash to skew the democratic process in favour of women (gold medal to N Sturgeon for that one).

Campaigners call for a law to force political parties to ensure 50 per cent of candidates are female (silver medal to taxpayer-funded feminist campaigning groups).

Politicians call for suffragettes to be pardoned.while their cause was just, their methods were often reprehensible.

If we retrospectively endorse arson, cultural vandalism, attempted murder and bombing in the pursuit of political causes, don’t be surprised if some extremists today are emboldened by such irresponsible gesturing (gold medal to Ruth Davidson).

And a bronze medal goes to the SNP’S John Mason, who wonders on Facebook, “Maybe I should be replaced with a woman.”

Please, can we not have just one MSP stand up and strike a blow for the vast majority of men and women who reject the tiresome and destructive obsession of the gender warriors?
