Go Rod...

"My favourite politician, Harriet Harman, has come up with an ingenious plan, as is entirely typical of her. She has suggested that the next Labour leadership election should be contested only by female candidates. The men, she says, can “jostle” for the position of deputy.
This is presumably an attempt by Harriet to stop the macho bullies of Momentum winning the race. But there is a problem she may not have foreseen. Labour’s National Executive Committee recently decided that all-women shortlists can include people who identify as women but are not, actually, women. So the next leadership election may be your first and last chance to see Andy Burnham wearing a gingham frock or Sadiq Khan resplendent in a niqab. Men are endlessly inventive when it comes to getting their own way."

He has also picked up on the women's college that has banned the word 'woman' and the trans site promoting trans women for sex rather than us boring old biological woman. His conclusion is: "They really don't like women very much do they?"
he Times has also covered the Labour party AWS issue and the girl guides today.

He has a point! I hope he's wearing his bulletproof underpants today.
