Brendan O’Neill laments the state of politics:
“The transformation of feminism from an assertive, offence-giving form of politics into a passive, offence-taking form of therapy reflects a change that has taken place across the political sphere. Feeling offended is the lingua franca of modern politics. Politics used to be about saying, “I believe in something and I am going to make it happen”. Now it is about saying, “I am offended by something and I am going to make it disappear”.”

Andrew Pierce on Ed Balls…
“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
Bloody foreigners, coming over here taking all our twitter followers
Doesn’t just apply to feminism sadly.
Then heaven help our cousins down-under if Gillard ever goes “old school”.
I personally would like to grab the BBC by throat and trash the place with a baseball bat. Perv apologists.
In the effeminate culture we now inhabit, the greatest crime you can commit is to “offend” someone or make them “uncomfortable”.
Time for certain idiot to take responsibility for damage he has done!
Guido Fawkes is a very offensive little man.
You bigotted woman
