To think the comments in the Daily Mail are frightening

[MotherOfDragons90]

I shouldn’t read it, I know, it is drivvel, but I downloaded the MailOnline app to read the Brexit stories as my friend said most of the comments were from Leavers and I quite wanted to know what Leavers think of how Brexit related things are going. Anyway, I digress.

There’s an article on today about new mothers and their maternity rights in the workplace.

The comments have shocked me to my core!

So many posts basically claiming women shouldn’t have any rights as they choose to have children, people saying they refuse to hire women of child bearing age etc.

If this is how Leavers feel, AIBU to be scared for our future as women?

Quietrebel who the hell cares about Macron?

Op I used to read the guardian, I was raised in guardian + observers household and proud.
One politics degree later and I expanded that reading to not only all papers when I want the truth but many sources...

Funnily enough it's the guardian that has most affected me in recent years.
Yes the mail is trash but they also campaigned for justice for Stephen Lawrence... They were the only paper to go out on a limb and do that guilty headline.. Which was sensational at the time when justice failed.

What scares me about the guardian is the omissions they are guilty of. The most frightening one was after cologne new years when Iver 1000 women were sexually assaulted and the fudged it.

That's one example. I honestly shudder when posters on here proclaim themselves guardian readers because it's not the whole picture.

Having said that of course the guardian will also be leavers paper because most labour voters voted leave and of course corbyn et all are leave

It's very common for women of childbearing age to be discriminated against. That's why the employment laws and regulations are important. Same goes of course for disabled workers and other groups likely to be discriminated against.

Opinions are like bumholes everyone has one, even daily mail commenters.

I don’t see what that has to do with brexit. I was a vote leave. I have kids and I support paternity rights and maternity rights.

Well apparently DM readers care enough to leave hundreds of vicious comments. It's just one example among many. Anyone with a slightly centre-left liberal agenda is savaged on there.

Oh yeah. It’s just DM readers who don’t like Macron. It’s not like his approval rating in France has dropped to 18%, his country is facing major violence and nation wide rioting is it? 🙄🙄

Macron is blatantly stirring up Anglophobia in order to bolster his collapsing administration.

Only 35% of Labour voters votes remain. And those were almost all working class Labour voters who don’t tend to read the Guardian. Guardianistas are pure middle class remainers.

It's a fact that women are the child bearers and are overwhelmingly responsible for childcare: it is also a fact that many men feel no responsibility for children at all and do not see a connection between their constant wish to have sex and the existence of children. I'm not sure why you are surprised? The world of employment is not set up to work around people's needs, and we are all having to work harder for less. It's exacerbating tensions and causing resentments as we all compete for fewer and fewer rewards. Women are at a natural disadvantage and the first thing most men do is look around for women to blame anyway. It shouldn't be like this. I don't believe it has to be.

Macron - It’s not like his approval rating in France has dropped to 18%

That is excellent news I can't stand him or his creepy wife.

Meant to add perhaps I should start reading the DM if it's going to provide such excellent news
