‘Some bad apples’: senior Tory minister denies institutional misogyny

The government faces intense pressure from its own MPs and opposition parties to take action over misogyny and harassment in Westminster after a senior minister denied institutional problems, saying the problem was simply “some bad apples”.

Westminster Tories have plenty of rotten apples. On the backbenches and in the cabinet. Their Prime Minister is as rotten as they come, he wouldn't know the truth if it bit him on the arse. ScotTories heraldscotland bbclaurak campbellclaret Stirling4Europe BBCScotlandNews

People will always be left guessing why another person has been brusque or impatient or has ignored them. It might be nothing to do with you and everything to do with them, but when people perceive a difference paranoia kicks in and it must be because I’m a woman or I’m black.

One of the problems with Politicians is they have over inflated egos and delusions about their own importance. Something us men tend to be more prone to than women. So I suspect misogyny and bullying are quite common. And is a little ironic that it is the men denying it.

Wrong answer Sir. All who are complacent or worse in the presence of misogyny are bad apples, because if they’re not fighting against it they’re supporting it. If the bad apple is removed, none rot.

Not more bad apples... fuck. I remember this shit. Rolling that one out again are we. 'Bad apples'. Cunts you mean. The right word is 'cunts'.

An orchard of bad apples visible from space.

The thing about rotten apples is that the quickly make the rest of the barrel rotten too

Kwasi Kwarteng would do well to remember that the phrase 'bad apples' comes from the analogy 'One bad apple spoils the barrel'. In other words from the bad apple, the rot setsin, spreads and poisons all

Abrahamic religions are misogynistic

Rotten from the head down

Guess they didn’t win sexist of the year?

Finish the rest of the idiom, please

Can I point out that Proportional Representation produces a better gender balance in politics that our First Past The Post. Every country with more than 40% female MPs uses PR. The current Finnish government, elected using PR, is a coalition of five parties all headed by women.

I would rather say it is 'few good apples', if that.
