Leyonhjelm has seen the writing on the wall for his chances of surviving the upcoming half senate election. So, in a spate of victim blaming in a Senate debate, he made up some non-existent comment in an ad hominem attack on a female Senator. Has not covered himself in glory in the TV interviews I have seen and still cannot verify is Hanson-Young said anything like what he is trying to use to justify a total act of dickheadiness. Fool has made it all worse now by continuing attacks on females by things like tweeting that Angela Bishop is a "bigoted bitch". Leyonhjelm needs to go.

If Leyonhjelm was trying to put Hanson-Young in her place, big backfire as she is on a roll with solid support from all sides of the major parties. Even Sky News has backpedalled and apologised for giving the fool a platform for his anti-female garbage.

It's an interesting one...

I don't believe that Sarah Hanson-Young should be lumping all men into the same boat (which is ostensibly what the #me too movement is now doing).

HOWEVER, I'd suggest that Leyonhelm could have handled himself a lot better than he did...

Oh, and Terry, it's "losing", rather than "loosing". (Why do people have some many issues differentiating those two words these days...?)

I'm blaming that on Spell Checker, it usually auto corrects and you miss the opportunity to try and correct it yourself and that is the way we learn to spell. At least it doesn't put a red pen stroke through the bad spelling and put a number out of 10 for spelling, another for grammar and another for content :lol:

All good, especially given that I used "some" interchangeably with "so" in my post...That might have scored me a "5" for intent, and a "2" for proofreading...

Hanson young is a member of the "me generation", not the bloke who is expressing his sentiments regarding her veracity and hypocrisy is the norm in the political system, no matter what their allegiance is. I'd back him as representing the real people of Aus, rather than Hanson young. In reality, they are all crazed ideologues and only represent themselves and their insane ideologies, never the real future or what the people want and need.

The woman is a typical misandrist, as are all the PC drop kicks of the world. Put misandrists and misogynists together in a rocket ship to mars and that would remove the majority of our problems, then real people could get on with life. Instead of having these people paid by us, doing bugger all, but argue, attack and deny what they really are, pathetic.
