Dear Prime Minister

[la_marquise]

Dear Prime Minister,

So it's appropriate to tell a female colleague to 'Calm down, dear' in public, is it, and then claim that it was a joke and a cultural reference, and that makes it okay? It's appropriate that your boon companion (and our chancellor of the exchequer) to find it hilarious? It's appropriate for one of your other ministers and fellow travellers to make a speech claiming that it is all the fault of middle class women if working class men haven't gone to university, because those women used space when they could have got married and had children?

I didn't vote for you. I probably would never vote for you and your party, because I oppose what you stand for. But you just ensured that I will never under any circumstances develop any respect for you, either.

yours,

La Marquise.

Yes, but you should have seen the alternatives... Gordon Brown all pally and chatty with a female voter in the street, then dismissing her as 'some bigoted woman' as soon as he got back in his car, not realising his microphone was still switched on... talk about the final nail in his campaign coffin!
