How in God's name can that have been allowed to happen?
    Is that how you interpret the Brexit vote? That young people dont care about democracy as much as their parents?

    I think it's a factor, certainly, but that wasn't my point. My point was that to have arrived at a situation where kids are allowed to grow up without a single fvcking clue about how lucky they are or why is terrifying.

    But the left would throw that exact same charge back at us. For example, in relation to gender equality, they'd say that we've grown complacent about the progress that's been made and that slipping back into the bad old days is a persistent threat, even if it doesn't feel like it.

    But that simply doesn't stand up to scrutiny. The achievements of wimmin are being repeatedly shoved down our throats at every level of education, academia and media.
    What the left is doing is simply applying the Marxist/Trotskyist principle of permanent revolution to the sphere of identity politics. The only way to maintain momentum and prevent backsliding is to be constantly demanding change - even where none is needed.

    Meanwhile, of course, all this noise serves to mask the fact that the greatest actual threats to women's rights come from the left's advocacy of Islam and transgenderism.

    looooooooooooooooool. Not so fast, M...

    Corbs has weighed in on the matter: "Early evening socialisation benefits men who don’t feel the need to be at home looking after their children, and it discriminates against women who will want to, obviously, look after the children that they have got."

    It really doesnt sound remotely terrifying. Just the standard cry of each generation about the next.

    Perhaps the terrifying bit is that there isn't or will be no next generation this time? That the next generation, such as it is, will in fact be all undesirable immigrant, redgunamo-types? Whither everyone's traditional way of life? Old maids bicycling to communion through the morning mists and a' that

    I'm drinking a warm beer right now, as it goes. #Major

    Anyway, redgunamo types aren't undesirable.
