1. QuestionThat

Perhaps because the Fawcett Society pushes ideologically-driven agenda through distortion. This has been covered well on this very blog last month Unity.

I guess Boris declined the invitation because he doesn’t go with the Fawcett Society’s line, just like Ken snubbed NO2ID because he supports ID cards.

I don’t blame him – “How are you going to tackle inequality” sounds like the sort of question a load of sixth form girls would come up with for a sociology assignment. It invites the answer;

“We’ll all hold hands, take a deep breath and just wish it away”

What flavour of inequality and what does “tackle” mean ?
