Wound back to the beginning. SDLP said they don't want to "debate" about gender issues. This is a nonsensical statement, because the very fact of removing the words "women" and "girls" from a bill about periods is asserting a political and social point of view that it is not only women who have periods, which is simply not true and against the grain of common understanding. How can they claim that no debate is remotely valid.
Who is this Emma numpty? All those poor men who have to go out and buy period products for their wives, won't anyone think of them and their burden!
