Daily Mail: Mr Speaker, control your wife!!

What kind of a man are you Mr Speaker, you can’t even tell your wife to keep her mouth shut?

So says Andrew Pearce in today’s Daily Mail.

What chance is there for this Speaker to succeed in keeping control of errant MPs when he can’t shut up his own daft wife?

Back in my day we had ways to deal with such insubordination… – I’m surprised the sexist dimwit didn’t add that to his rant.

What has society come to that women can say what they want??

Tories hate woman.

No news there then……….

Calm down there our Sal!!!

What a silly thing to write. He’s slutting himself quite a bit on paper reviews and very rarely has anything worth saying. Slimy, malicious, oleagionous, sarky and generally never done a day’s work in his life. It’s a cowardly form of insinuated gossip from a man who undoubtedly has few friends. What a turd.

So in your usual nasty tory way you attack his wife.

Conservatives hate woman. That is a fact.

4. Dick the Prick

It’s outrageous to attack his wife and this hack should be cold shouldered until he retracts it.

5. George W. Potter

Yes, all tories hate women Sally, they’re all evil to boot and enjoy killing puppies. Jesus. I have met several tories who do not hate women and even if that were not the case, your statement is so outrageous that I find it hard to see how even you thought you could get away with it. You might as well say that all catholics are paedophiles and that black people asl like watermelon into the bargain since that’s the kind of level you’re at.
