[Politics] Caroline Lucas, sensible suggestion or sexist nonsense?

[Green Cross Code Man]

Sexist if you ask me, imagine if it had been a male leader calling for the same thing in reverse.

She has gone completely down in my estimation, she would rather team up with a bunch of austerity backing, lib dem frackers than support a Labour party with genuinely positive policies for the environment. I will no longer be voting for her.

 

[Garry Nelson's teacher]

Funnily enough a few days back on the Brexit thread I speculated that CL might be a long shot as the Leader of a govt of national unity. However, quite why she has boxed herself in in this way is rather odd and to me her proposition is contrived and unconvincing.

Sexist. We should be working together, not creating division.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I'm a member of the Green Party, but comments like this will hinder the chances of Greens ever having a realistic shot at making a real dent in British politics

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

I love the bit about reaching out to people with whom they disagree and co-operating to find solutions. Her proposal is to do the exact opposite. Blairite spin at its finest.

I'm with Nigel Tufnel on this one...

How can it be sexist? The leaders she's calling out for are the leaders of the left leaning parties and left leaning independants . . . who are all female.

The LWAlliance have already made huge grounds to try to win any impending general election so I say left her get on with it to save the country.

Because she herself claims that women have the ability to solve the political impasse purely on the basis of their gender. Read her quote in the article and substitute ‘black’, ‘white’, ‘straight’ or ‘gay’. This type of division is the last thing we need.

Considering Theresa May is a woman, and didn't make any progress in three years, I fail to see how Caroline Lucas justifies it.

 

[Stat Brother]

A terrible suggestion, the menfolk have been doing a bang up job for centuries...








...oh.

 

[sydney]

sexist....now where's my dinner...??

 

[Ernest]

Shown her true colours here, Lucas is a closet Tory

I think she may have reached Series 6 of House of Cards.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Unnecessarily divisive. The greens - who I thought were now the only ones worth voting for - now seem to be doing their best to join the rest of the useless idiots.

 

[BLOCK F]

She must be 'away with the fairies'.

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Well the blokes have done a fantastic job haven't they..

She has opted for women to focus soley on the task, without all the posturing machismo and willy waving that inevitably would occur otherwise.

If you ever had to deal with those bafoons in Whitehall who spend most of their time name dropping and playing games of 'one up manship' you'd understand her motivation to keep testosterone out of it.

Caroline Lucas at it again.

Does this woman go out of her way to be stupid or is it natural. Her latest idea to get females to sign up to her ideas. It is the only way that the people that she is asking would ever get anywhere near being in a government, absolutely ridiculous.

sorry didnt see the other thread mods please remove or merge
