Meanwhile Nigel Farage, a serving British MEP, has been stumping in the US for Roy Moore, the candidate for the upcoming Senate election in Alabama.
Moore is the judge who broke the law by installing a giant copy of the Ten Commandments in a state judicial building.
He describes homosexuality as "an inherent evil against which children must be protected” and ruled a lesbian mother couldn't see her children unsupervised for this reason.
He co-wrote a lecture course stating that women should not hold elected office.
One of the lectures in the circuit, which Think Progress reports Mr Moore worked on, relies on an interpretation of the bible that they say prohibits women from holding leadership positions.
“One of the most destructive ideologies of the last 50, hundred years have been the doctrines of feminism, which have transformed our culture and have paved the way for abortion on demand, the homosexual agenda, undermined our church, and subverted the doctrines of the biblical family,” a recording of the lecture, which was not delivered by Mr Moore himself, says.
The lecturer continues to call feminism “radical agenda”, and to advocate for all-male leadership. He says that women are “the weaker vessel”, and describes women as unequal.
Finally, the lecturer notes that determining the sex of a candidate is a pretty easy way of weeding out unqualified candidates, assuming females are unfit to lead.
