Boris Johnson said female suffrage only happened because men realised women could “run them down” with cars, in a video that has resurfaced on social media. Mr Johnson made the bizarre comment to Sir Drummond Bone in an interview for the Voices from Oxford website in 2013 after he was asked about his 2007 book on cars, Life in the Fast Lane. “I think that women's liberation – female suffrage – probably wouldn't have happened, if it hadn’t been for the motorcar,” said the prime minister, who was then mayor of London. “Basically because men realised that women were at the wheel of a machine that could run them down.” Sir Drummond appeared to be sceptical of his claim and replied that he had never heard that argument before. Mr Johnson, who did not seem to be joking, then explained his theory in more detail, noting that opponents of female suffrage in the 1890s warned against women using bicycles. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...ial-media-a9237281.html?utm_source=reddit.com
And in keeping with this festive season, I invite you all to contribute whatever holiday fails you can find. (X-mas, Hanukkah, or whatever you may celebrate). (Edit) : Along with the usual funny stuff......Florida is especially welcome
It's the new age. Sitting in Santa's lap is wrong and he should be tried as a predator going all the way back.
I think Santa standing out in front of the store collecting change for the Salvation Army cancels that out though. It evens out in the end.
Hope she tied it down so it doesn't roll around in the trunk.........(eyeroll) It's at a Kroger so that makes it somewhere here in the Midwest. Hope she doesn't live near my neighborhood.
And on a follow up note. How is she going to pour that gas into whatever she wants to pour it into ???? Out of a plastic bag ?? I don't want to be anywhere near that.
Not to stereotype but.... Asian lady from local convenient store running out to get gas for her husband that's waiting somewhere stuck on empty?
