Literary Ames

Ah, The Daily Mail. You can always count on them to be predictable.

What did I say on Tuesday?

Media influence in politics is highly critical of women, more so than back in Thatcher’s time. Privacy is anathema to the media. It’s not what they say or do but what they wear, who they marry, and where they shop that attracts criticism. Their actions and opinions are overshadowed by meaningless appearances.

And that other headline, ‘Now win election, PM tells new girls’ – they’re not girls, they’re women and have been women for decades.
