Lewis is excellent, as are Maitlis and Sopel, I agree.

Seems a reasonable stance these days.

No, he's just busy with other stuff, I believe.

I'm not ignoring your experience. I'm just giving you the facts. Feel free to include any links to studies that show that the burden of child rearing is equal or falls mainly on the father.
Saying you know how it feels to be mainsplained is, ironically, both mansplaining and sexist.

We need more people publicly stating the value of immigration & immigrants themselves. Let's be clear, though: the vile anti-immigrant crowd is unlikely to have an issue with an Australian immigrant whilst still bemoaning the second generation British citizen whose parents came over from Pakistan.

Nope, that doesn't naturally follow. The bulk of the child rearing burden still falls on women. That's just the reality. This sort of shite is part of the mental load that predominantly falls on women.

I was alluding to the fact that is usually the mother sorting this shite out. Therefore, the headline was correct.

Trumpism, coming to a nation near you (or more likely, your own nation if you have a immigration focussed right-wing party climbing the polls).

What a lovely chance for parents to spend some quality time with their offspring!

You'd think, but be realistic for a second.

So, from that we can ascertain that he doesn't understand coalfield communities because all he did was go in a pub once and still came out none the wiser as he said nothing about the coalfield communities at all.

Oh hun, no women could ever be equal to you anyway. We just can't go that low!

How far America has fallen in its pursuit to make America great again, eh!

This won't end well. Trump has crossed the rubicon imho & he won't stop now, he's getting richer off of the presidency, as are his spawn. Why would he stop? He already knows he has all the power because none of the unconstitutional acts he's committed have been stopped. America is a kakistocracy.

Tbf Americas downfall has been happening since the Reagan years. It's what happens to a society that views socialism as bad. Capitalism will always fight democracy, to the death if it can. America is what happens when you value individualism above collectivism and worship Mammon.

I think everyone supports the arrest of Trump, amirite?

I wonder about the Olympics in 2028 and whether it will go ahead but Trump will extend the ban to every country, leaving America to garner all the medals.

I'm not sure the dumbass Reform supporters share your ability to identify nuance and satirical comedy. Garnet is more likely to be the hero than the butt of the joke to them.

Will they be play back episodes of "The Black and White Minstrel Show" and "Till Death Us Do Part " again, then?

What's their play here? You can't use a terrorist attack, however appalling to justify the genocide of a people. To do so would be to admit the war crime of collective punishment.

but heaven forfend the rich pay for the consequences of their profligacy, make the poor pay!

You can see why they would demand that, if the government don't say NO, then they're both stupid and callous. Doubtless, they won't say no. They pay with our money, which I resent as a Scottish taxpayer where we don't have this sort of shite,

I'm glad Anon, whoever they are, recognises the importance of luck and a supportive state in his or her success. So few millionaires are that intelligent.

We should fight lies with consequences for lying,real consequences, not just a wagging finger and a telling off. We don't seem to be able to do that.

He'll renege on it even if it is implemented. It's what he does. It won't be worth the paper it's written on, well from his side it won't.

Given how appallingly women get treated by some men in public for what they wear when it is "western attire" who wouldn't want to go out in public covered head to toe in a long cloak or dress to avoid being leered at?

Ross Clark is either stupid or he's preying on the stupid, or both.

And just like that, the right gets it wrong again

I think both McCloud & Forstater can agree that the problem is men, so the solution should focus on that, not on one or another women's group. All women shouldn't have to put up with the poor behaviour of some men, & neither should men tbh. We need to start adequately prosecuting sex based crimes.

Do you remember the time that Angela Merkle got all shouty and pathetic on social media? Yeah, me neither.

Personally, I think the fact that the newly elected Reform councillors have cancelled loads of essential meetings or not shown up, and threatened 12,200 jobs with their anti net zero stance are a great examples of how unfit the far right are for positions of responsibility.

You do know most of that is just for England dont you? Scotland already get free school meals thanks to the SNP. As I said, they didn't deserve to win.

Don't say "the girls are fighting" ffs AOC. It's actually everyday sexism. Say the toddlers are have a tantrum

If it's out of ideas, it's because it's implemented all the good ones. Well, all expect one, but there's still time for that one.

"John", who phoned in to Lewis on LBC, will be disappointed. Maybe he can replace Yusuf? He's definitely got the credentials Farage is looking for.

Deporting him won't shut him up, it will do the opposite. Then he will be beyond their reach, so yeah, deport him.

Labour didn't win, the SNP lost. There needs to be some serious soul searching in the SNP head office today.
