"Women should be deprived of healthcare" - Mr Gribbin, of Reform

[IlFaitBeau]

As Reform (apparently) inspires many to join its hallowed leagues, these lovely comments from a Reform candidate are sure to inspire many of us -

"Men pay 80% of tax – women spend 80% of tax revenue. On aggregate as a group you only take from society.
"Less complaining please from the 'sponging gender'."
He added that women are "subsidised by men to merely breath (sic)".
In January 2022 he posted: "Men pay 80% of tax. Women take out 80% of expenditures.
"Square that inequality first by depriving women of healthcare until their life expectancies are the same as men, Fair’s fair."
In December 2021 he wrote female soldiers "almost made me wretch (sic)" and were a "total liability".

Oh and also - one must be neutral when faced with Hitler.

Obviously this guy’s views are abhorrent, but where do you think he got the idea that women use 80% of tax revenue? Do you think he’s conflating women and children and saying that together they account for more than 50% of public spending? (Unless he’s plucked it out of thin air of course, rather than putting a nasty misogynist spin on some actual figures.)

@Queenofswords88 I'd be surprised if he knew where his notion that women account for 80% of spend comes from - it's got more than a faint whiff of a pidooma about it...

Apparently, it was 'clearly tongue in cheek' according to Farage, but 'taken out of context' according to him - so which is it?

I don't agree with depriving unvaccinated people of healthcare, for what it's worth, but you cannot compare that to what he said. Being unvaccinated is a choice; being a woman is not.

Tice and Farage and their Brexit bullshit has cost the UK billions, if anyone needs to be penalised I'd start with them.

Perhaps he thinks the Police, Army, Navy and RAF are only there to defend the honour of British maidens.
Men only use roads to go out and buy their wives chocolate.

Medical care was withdrawn from marginalised groups, those in hospital not getting treatment because hospitals were overflowing with covid patients.

He’d probably let women have access to healtcare if they were pregnant with a boy.
