Birmingham City FC risk upsetting supporters and the local community after it emerged that the club will play host to the annual conference of a highly controversial political party.

‘Justice for men and boys (and the women who love them)’ was founded by Mike Buchanan, who is still the party’s leader. Buchanan had previously formed ‘The Anti-Feminism League’ and the ‘Campaign for Merit in Business’. The party’s principal aim is to alter what it perceives to be the exploitation of the human rights of men and boys by a state that privileges women and girls.

To say there is a sinister undertone to the party is an understatement. Links from the ‘j4mb’ website include pieces titled ’13 reasons women lie about being raped’ and ’10 reasons false rape allegations are common’, with the underlying claim that sexism causes far more harm to men and boys than to women and girls.

Quote:

On Tuesday, Buchanan spoke on BBC Radio Nottingham on the subject of allegations of sexual harassment of women in the workplace, and his views were emphatic:

“I spent 30 years in the business world and never once came across an example of women claiming to be sexually harassed. This is women claiming to be sexually harassed, not who have been harassed. If we believe them we are basically saying that men are guilty.

“There are some very unattractive women, including some politicians, who claim sexual harassment. Their claims are not credible. Perhaps they are fantasising.

“It’s usually unattractive women who claim to have been sexually harassed and it is simply not right. If she’s more attractive she’ll get more attention from men so she won’t need to claim things It’s simple.”

Any British members know anything about Mike Buchanan and his party?
