And think of all the money we’d save getting rid of the probation service, when we can expect employers to do it instead

Just send Toxteth O'Grady round with a lead pipe to check they're behaving.

Toxteth O'Grady? Surely he is too busy stuffing marshmallows up his bugle and measuring the elasticity of his bogies?*

Back to the low level offenders, perhaps the transport secretary could throw his hat in the ring. His pal Michael Green could also step up when Grant has done his hours on the tachy.

As many have pointed out, he's just All Lives Mattered sexism.

This is English Democrats standard stuff.

"He called me a cracker as I kicked his teeth in - I found that really hurtful."

If I worked in government, and specifically in Raab's team (or surrounding orbit) I think one of my goals would be to slowly add more and more 'a's to Raaab in official documents, press releases etc. I reckon you could easily get to 3 or 4 in a lot of places and people wouldn't really notice, then they'd start to question how many it really should be. 2? 3? Or was it always 1 and 'Raab' was a typo all along?

Yup it’s evident what he actually meant, but he just made him look like a dickhead while doing it.

Rabb actually knows that the inverse version is called Misterogeny.

And eventually have a meme of Shatner cursing him?

I believe Steve Bell used to caricature him as someone who could only utter the word "Raaaaab!" during cabinet meetings.

Meanwhile, he got schooled by Sally Nugent (breakfast TV presenter) that misogyny only works one way.

Asked to clarify his comments later in the interview, Mr Raab said: "What I meant was, if we are talking about things below the level of public order offences of harassment, intimidation, which are rightly criminalised - if we are talking about, effectively, insults with a sexist basis, I don't think that criminalising those sorts of things will deal with the problem that we have got at the heart of the Sarah Everard case.

No, Mr Scaab. We are *not* talking about, effectively, insults with a sexist basis. We are talking about a whole range of behaviours which women, and only women, have to put up with all day every day, because stupid, privileged white MEN like you don't believe it is a real problem. We are talking about a nasty and insidious part of our male-dominated culture which makes women feel uncomfortable, scared, or just plain dead. And you, because of your privilege and ignorant stupidity, are mentally incapable of grasping that it *is* a real thing. It is this culture that is at the very heart of the Sarah Everard case, you stupid fucking cunt.

Typical fucking modern self-servative. "It's not bothering me, I don't understand it, I can't be bothered to ask, so it's not a problem".

I really fucking hate these people.

Armsteen applauds and begs to steal this (with credits).

You be on fire, Sir!!

I'd just like to add that I really hate this "What we're talking about is...so what we're really talking about is...and that means talking about..." manner of speaking. You can see Patel doing it on the her vs Hislop clip.

Just a few years ago we expected politicians to be capable of public speaking, not this froth.

Be my guest. The further it goes, the greater the chance of it reaching the scum who are wrecking this country.

Like I said, "Woke" is looking at the inequalities and injustices in society and doing something about them. Here we have the Justice Secretary telling us that there's no problem and nothing needs to be done.

Ithangyew.

From The Graun article covering this:

Raab also downplayed statistics that show less than 1.4% of alleged rapes are prosecuted, saying most crime data is examined at the point of charge.

"The conviction rate statistics are often, I’m afraid, rather skewed,” he said. “If you look at the normal way that people measure the conviction rate – as a proportion of the number of prosecutions that are launched – actually once you get to court, there is more or less around a 70% chance of conviction."

I can't tell if he's deliberately downplaying the issue or is as thick as whale oil.

Having almost completed Laura Bates, (Men who hate women) you start to see it a little more clearly, not sure Raab is a fully paid member of the “Manosphere” but his comments on misogyny is an attempt to deflect it or disarm it, the use of dubious stats are further proof.

As Ben Hurst says from the good lad initiative, your not going get the leaders currently to buy into projects highlighting violence against women as they are some of the worst peddlers of this mistruth.

I also long suspected something wasn’t saintly about YouTube and the stuff around it is damning.
