British MP takes a stand against feminism and political correctness

Hats off to this guy. Inevitably, the feminazi turned things around so she was the victim. This is yet another reason why men should not vote for left-wing parties - is it any more obvious that they hate us?

British MP takes a stand against feminism and political correctness

Philip Davies, the Conservative MP for Shipley, found himself at the centre of a raging gender storm last week, when he suggested that men’s issues should be discussed in Parliament on International Men’s Day, November 19th.


Despite making an impassioned plea to the Backbench Business Committee last Tuesday – underscored by troubling new data on Thursday that showed a 40 per cent spike in male suicides for men in their 40s and record low educational achievement for white, working-class boys – his comments were met with unbridled ridicule from Labour’s Jess Philips.


Despite claims on the Labour website that Ms Philips, MP for Birmingham Yardley, “helps the poorest and most vulnerable in society,” she openly laughed and petulantly pulled faces while Davies spoke, then scoffed: “You’ll have to excuse me for laughing. As the only woman on this committee, it seems like every day to me is International Men’s Day.”


For many, Ms Philips’ sneering contempt of these serious – and increasingly fatal – men’s issues left a sour taste in the mouth.


Over centuries, working men built Britain and millions died in its wars, yet in 2015 men’s issues are laughed out of the House.

Yet Davies believes this attitude is indicative of Labour’s increasingly “Islington, metropolitan”, feminist political correctness, and that this is stifling debate, damaging democracy – and directly harming men.

“An air of oppressive political correctness is ensuring a whole range of male issues go undiscussed,” says Davies, who is the Parliamentry spokesman for the Campaign against Political Correctness.

“We have seen a 40 per cent spike in male suicides for men in their 40s, lower life expectancy and issues of male cancers, and the educational achievement for impoverished white boys is particularly acute. How men are treated in the criminal justice system is palpably more harsh, and in all aspects of child custody men feel aggrieved.

“In the 18-30 age group there are more male victims of domestic violence than female victims – and that’s under-reported because of embarrassment.

“All of these are massive issues that will face every MP in every constituency and yet these issues are very, very rarely debated in Parliament”.

Commenting on Ms Philips’ reaction to him during that contentious debate, Davies says, “If a male MP had reacted in that way about the need for debate on International Women’s Day, there would have been hell to pay. It’s entirely possible you’d be removed from Chambers or have the Whip removed. I’m surprised she finds that a laughing matter.

“A dozen Tory MPs and three from the DUP signed my motion. They were very keen that there should be a debate on these things. The only great resistance seemed to come from Jess. What on earth are people doing in Parliament if they are scared of having a debate?”

Davies finds this “profoundly sad” and insists there is a “significant” appetite to discuss men’s issues in the chambers, arguing that if new statistics showed it was white, Asian or black women that were significantly underperforming at school or killing themselves, swift action would be taken.


“In many cases, working class, white males feel abandoned by the system,” he says. “Very few people are prepared to speak for them and that’s a very serious issue. When people don’t feel somebody is speaking up for them, they vote for extremist parties, or they don’t vote at all. It’s very, very sad.

“The Labour Party have abandoned them and I think they now speak up for an Islington, metropolitan, politically-correct elite and my view is that Ms Philips’ reaction perfectly epitomises how the Labour Party have abandoned any pretense of wanting to represent white, working-class men.”

Ms Philips’ actions caused outrage on social media, which culminated in rape threats that had been posted on an obscure Reddit chat forum being retweeted by Ms Philips.

Labour MPs rallied in support, with Yvette Cooper starting the hashtag #IStandWithJessPhillips and Clive Lewis tweeting “Love ALWAYS trumps hate”. Within hours, Ms Philips’ transformation from bully to victim was complete – although Davies is keen to condemn her attackers.

“It’s perfectly reasonable that she’s been criticised but some of the abuse she’s had has been completely unacceptable,” says Davies.

“Whatever she did, she certainly doesn't deserve that, and some people have really let the side down with their appalling abuse. I hope in some cases she passes it on to the police and she presses charges. Nobody should face that kind of abuse.”

With increasing calls for there to be a men’s minister in Parliament, would Davies put himself forward for such a controversial post?

“No, I don’t believe in that, and I don’t believe we should have a minister for women, either,” he says. “Governments should be gender blind and do their best for everyone.

“I’m totally against women-only shortlists and all forms of positive discrimination. Jobs should be given on merit, irrespective of colour or gender, and not having selections rigged because you’re a woman or a minority”.

Davies feels Ms Philips’ actions are merely the latest in a long line of tools used by the “PC-brigade” to silence contrary opinions, and, in particular, men.

“You’re not allowed to highlight how the system seems to be unfair to men any more - even when it’s true,” he says.

“People don't want to put their head above the parapet. That’s what politically correct people do when they want to stop a debate that they don’t want to be debated. By shouting you down they hope to silence you - but they also want to deter anybody else from speaking out.

“The scariest thing is the erosion of free speech. People are afraid to speak out, that’s the really sinister thing. That’s what I fight against.

“Part of it is a warning: don’t you dare speak out, because look what could happen to you. But I will not be silenced. I will continue to fight for men, no matter how unpopular some see that.”

It is encouraging that even politicians - who generally are political correctness personified - are starting to openly criticise feminism and politically correctness. This bitch makes me sick. She laughs about a massive rise in male suicide. I say it again: why would any self-respecting male vote for left wing parties that are stacked with feminazis that clearly hate us?

His only misstep. Even raising these issues in Parliament, he still either doesn't have the balls or doesn't understand that scum like Philips do, in fact, deserve just as fierce an attack on them as the left has been drenching the right with, unanswered, for decades on end.

As soon as Davies voiced his concerns:

I'll certainly give him points for trying but he'll get shut down and brought into line before long. The party whips won't allow otherwise. They wouldn't risk alienating their female voting bloc.
