Misogyny in Parliament and UK politics

[Wilf]

Looks like there's been quite a lot of activity on his wiki page since 14:43

Neil Parish: Revision history - Wikipedia

Wikipedia admins are amongst the most humourless people in the world aren’t they

Quite the moralist as well (from his wiki):

Parish opposes, and voted against the implementation of same-sex marriage, stating that he felt the issue was "for the Church and Christians to decide [upon], not for parliament to legislate."[16] In 2014, Parish voted against enabling the courts to deal with proceedings for the divorce of a same sex couple and against making same sex marriage available to armed forces personnel outside the UK.[17]

I wonder if he feels that the church and Christians should decide whether his public porn habit is ok? Literally a wanker.

I suspect he'll already have his appointment booked with the private doctor who provides a diagnosis of stress for wanking/gropey/noncey MPs.

Yeah, well BBC R4 had already trotted out apologists yesterday before he was named, saying how awful porn addiction was and how it destroyed poor men's lives.

 

[Dystopiary]

He was asked about it himself on GB "News" the other day!

The cunt has some front to have done that.

I’d rather this thread were named “misogyny in parliament” or “… in uk politics”.

While the “family values” brigade tends to the right, sexual harassment, assault, intimidation etc is rife across the political spectrum.

Yep. We'd all like to think it's 'those people over there who I already don't like.' Not the case, sadly.

^^ This.

The 56 MPs who have been reported to the watchdog for alleged sexual misconduct are said to include two shadow cabinet members.

I reckon there must be 56 lamposts on Whitehall and parliament Square

I agree & reported your post, asking for the thread title to be changed.

There is no such fucking thing as porn addiction. He should be expelled from the Commons. Fucking twat!

Chris Morris shakes his head.

Just seen Neil Parishs interview on ITV news and claims he opened an app up by mistake?

Reminds me of a training exercise at work in introducing us to the internet when a profoundly xian manager said look up whatever you want...my mate typed in Australian bikes....

We've all been there. Except for those of us who don't have porn apps.

I think it's fair for him to give his side of the story and to test it. Shouldn't be that hard to tell where it was opened from, whether it was a "mistake"/one-off, how long he watched for, etc.

Agreed. If I had any strategy at all it would have been there could have different threads for each party, along the lines that we've got for each newspaper going down the pan. Anyway, I've edited the title down further so we can include all of the scumbags in one.

Traditionally though it is money offences that do for Labour MPs, sex offences that do for Tory MPs.

‘Labour MPs get caught with their fingers in the till, Tories with their trousers down.”

My mum c 1976.

What would happen if you were viewing porn in working hours, and two women colleagues observed it?

I should imagine, instant suspension, without pay, and gone for gross misconduct as fast as HR could process it.

Barred from my profession for life, almost certainly.

This is his explanation,

BBC Spotlight said Mr Parish had suggested to them that he had opened something on his phone by mistake. Mr Parish said: "It was a huge error. I will be interviewed thoroughly by the standards' committee and I will answer their questions and await their findings.

"In the meantime, I just want to support my wife through all of this, and family."

Mr Parish, who has been an MP for 12 years, following a stint in the European parliament, says he will consider his position following the outcome of the investigation.

Labour councillor calls on Parish to "do the right thing"

Tiverton & Honiton MP's huge error'

www.radioexe.co.uk

It's the sort of not guilty plea that contains a back up admission of guilt i.e. why would he need to 'support his wife' and end up 'considering his position' if he was an innocent abroad on his phone, clicking away at random links.

The cunt has some front to have done that.

'Front' was the word that came to mind.

It does also demonstrate how adept they are at giving out the law & order message while being personally guilty as hell

 

[cupid_stunt]

Who has a porn app on their phone? I don't get it at all, why watch porn on a phone?

The screen is way too small.

 

[two sheds]

And your first reaction - I'd have thought - would be to slam the laptop lid shut immediately. So fast, in fact, that hardly anyone would see what was on the screen.

There is though an element of boris johnson's defensive reasoning about this: 'look, let's leave it up Sue Gray and the police to decide whether I went to that party I organised'.

 

[bellaozzydog]

They know they can literally get away with anything

And again and again this is proven

Parish is a piece of shit. Huge fanboy of the Tiverton hunt.
