AIBU to give my wife a small amount of sedatives each day?

[MotherEarthisaTerf]

Just a little mild sedative daily so she never realises there are better men out there?
AIBU?

From MNHQ: We implore you to read the thread before reporting!

A link to the article would have made the OP a little less concerning.

Imagine the screams from the right wing press if someone from the opposition benches were to say something like this. But from a Tory it's just bantz, right?

Agreed on all points. Home bloody Secretary! Parachuted in to replace Suella Braverman a nanosecond ago. Election can't come soon enough, but I don't feel hugely confident that the other side will be much better.

He really is a low-calibre politician - how on earth he rose to such high office I'll never know. Well I do know, but am just exasperated that we have such low quality people running the country.

Clever by name. Sex Offender by nature!

I agree.

This comment was beyond disgusting, not a matter of political difference but a deeply unsuitable topic for a 'joke' when in charge of the Home Office.

It's weird. It's like some socialists have infiltrated the Conservative Party, and put the worst people in the most important jobs, just to undermine the whole thing. Otherwise.....dear lord....

Why because it is bantz?

The disgust everyone felt when reading the first post is real, he should not be home secretary.

He needs to go. His misogyny is showing.

A dope of the highest order - to talk in this manner in a room full of journalists!

His poor wife, how crass of him. She should LTB.

If he thinks it's a joke could he please explain why it's funny?

Bet he can't without digging an even deeper hole.

I bet he hangs round with a load of guys who would think this was absolutely hilarious. They probably make MiL jokes too. Yuck.

Things really haven't improved have they? I remember bring a teenager in the 90s feelings that sexism will be a thing of the past soon and believing in progress. And here we have a Home Secretary making jokes like this.

See you later OP... 👋

@Westfacing they're hardly spoiled for choice are they though to be fair.

What sort of "context" would justify this vile suggestion by the OP? Why has the thread not immediately been deleted?

What a bastard. Should be prosecuted for incitement to commit rape.

Not very clever, Mr Cleverly.

The current news story about our beloved Home Secretary, maybe?

You win the internet today :)

Read the whole thread. It's not the OP who believes this, it's our Home Secretary who thinks it's reasonable to make a joke about it. @Wishimaywishimight

Resignation immediately please. I do not want anyone who thinks and speaks like this in a position of power in my country.

Do you mean see you later Mr Cleverly?

They really are a group of reprehensible morons.

This. I honestly despair at these bloody stupid men. No words really.
