And yes Elendon... fatherless children are those who have been abandoned by their sperm donor or the father was a violent/abusive twat who a court has quite rightly said shouldn't be near his children unsupervised or the father has refused to pay child maintenance and abandoned the child or, in incredibly rare cases, the mother has said that the father cannot see their child for no discernible reason.

Phillip Davies has a nasty old track record.

He has filibustered bills to introduce compulsory first aid training in schools, to give carers free parking at hospitals (while also voting against any bill to increase carer's allowance, and simultaneously gurning for pictures with constituents during carer's events.), a tenancy reform bill which would have prevented landlords from being able to evict tenants for asking for simple repairs to be done, even when the house is unfit to live in, an international development bill and a bill to ban live animals being used in circuses.

He also infamously asked why there couldn't be a men's day celebrated in the HoC, and has basically whined about it ever since, which has made him a darling of the men's rights extremist groups.

He previously worked for Asda, where he had a reputation that I probably can't mention so won't. The guy's a cock of the first water.

This is someone who receives a handsome yearly salary courtesy of the taxpayer and will have an MP pension.

And what the hell does fatherless mean? Does it include men who bugger off to the other end of the country, effectively abandoning their first family (leaving them on benefits) and start up a new family?

I may be projecting a bit
