You can learn a lot from how men with power speak to women.

Trump:
"Quiet piggy"

Farage:
"Listen Love"

They are cut from the same cloth.

Yep. But I think we all knew that didn't we?

I've spent today counting votes for the local elections in Denmark. The number of women on the ballot varies immensely from party to party. In my county the socialist people's party only had 3 candidates, all women, won 2 seats. Social democrats had 1/3 women but only 1 of the 6 seats they won has gone to a woman. The others were few and far between. Yet the leading center right party has 10 seats with 3 women, including the mayor. Who btw came to guides earlier this year and helped with our democracy escape room where we saved the Danish Constitution 🇩🇰🤩

I'm not one of the Trump haters but the quiet piggy was absolutely excruciating.

They are both hideous, and their political ideologies require women to stay in a support role.

Calm down dear

David Cameron was putting women politicians down before destroying the economy with Brexit.

No, no, no! Not at all comparable!

Trump's remark is infinitely ruder, more bullying, beyond all decency.

Farage has spent years dismissing feminism, shrugging that he doesn’t even know what it means and last year called Andrew Tate who openly boasts about degrading and controlling women and an “important voice for men”.

His party voted against measures to strengthen workplace protections from sexual harassment and wants to scrap or gut the Equality Act. This means fewer legal tools for women facing discrimination or abuse. Exploiting women’s safety to stoke fear of immigrants while simultaneously attacking the laws and policies that actually protect women from predators is hypocritical and dangerous.

Trump may be orders of magnitude cruder, but with Farage, the worry is that the same dismissive, anti-feminist streak is already. One is louder and overtly nastier, yes, but neither is good for women.
