If you are Reform are you ok with this repulsive man potentially becoming an MP and representing women in parliament?

[Johnogroats]

Robert Kenyon, the “cheeky local chappie” who is standing for Reform in Makerfield is on record as making some shockingly sexist comments and statements. Reform are standing by him.

Can I ask the women on here who are Reform voters if they are ok with the him remaining a candidate given what I cite below. Btw I am absolutely not, but I’m not and never will be a Reform voter for a variety of reasons.

1. Retweeting a post about performing a (graphic description) of a sexual act on Carol Voderman.
2. He has attacked women as being promiscuous and accused them of taking any decision to have an abortion lightly. He wrote, “reproductive rights, women's rights, they can dress it up all they want.
3. They're deciding to kill a baby inside the womb. What they mean is they want to shag anyone they want. And if they get caught, they get a second chance and treat it as a secondary, last form of contraception.”

Either you think this is ok (don’t understand how anyone let alone a woman could be ok with it) or presumably you’ll be contacting Tice and Farage etc to drop him.

Interested in your thoughts.

None of these threads are made in good faith.

Don't vote Reform, wont vote reform.

What have you read about him that encourages you that he will support women?

Most of what I have seen is the opposite.

Have you thought about the Greens at all?

Evading the question, eh?

🤣

On the contrary. It’s excellent to draw women’s attention to what they’ll get if they vote Reform.

They are as bad as Reform, if not worse.

To answer your question, it doesn't overly bother me.

And if they vote Green they will be sharing a changing room with a bloke Suzie inn a dress.

It’s good. Nobody is voting Reform, and I really like all the people who are especially not voting for them, but also, I like their commitment to the same values Reform display.

If it’s this bad, I wouldn’t vote for them either. Same with any other candidate for any other party. I certainly wouldn’t overlook something bad a candidate said just because another candidate said something bad. Is that really what you’d do?

I think the comments made to and about JK Rowling from members of the Labour and Green Party are far far worse and deeply misogynistic.

Neither are ok of course, but to imply somehow that one Reform wannabe MP is singularly worse than the trans supporting JKR haters doesn’t really wash.

Other parties are available.

Not good, but they are nuts, so no surprise. 🙄

Can you give a specific example of something a Labour or Green MP (or would be MP) has said about her?

Any woman planning to vote for this sexist, racist pig needs to think very hard about the country they want for themselves.

I too was wondering this. Having actually seen what Kenyon wrote to Vorderman on her birthday I find it very difficult to believe that anything could be much worse. It was absolutely disgusting.

Google seems broken for a lot of people today.

"Green candidate calls Harry Potter author JK Rowling 'torn-faced cow' amid gender row"

If we start with whataboutery then there is the Reform councillor who said the Holocaust was a hoax, or the one who proposed filling potholes with Nigerians

Kenyon’s message to Vorderman was considerably worse.

But not this party with its unique cocktail of misery gut’s grievances!

Are you bitter? Do you think that pensions ought to quadruple locked with reference to bankers bonuses? Do you suspect asylum seekers have taken too many toiletries from hotels (or more than you have got)? Have some women got too uppity and could do with a good shaming? Are your ideas of community events witch ducking, flag waving and disdaining planning applications for solar panels? Did you think Jacob Rees Mogg a bit of pansy liberal? Might a small war be in order to shake things up provided it doesn’t mess with your holiday?

Reform is for you

But wouldn’t Reform enact new laws to match their manifesto. Assuming they had the majority in Parliament.

Ah that's okay then.

She was suspended by the Greens and not elected. What she had said was reprehensible. Different from Kenyon, but equally vile.
