MUMSNET POLL SPELLS DISASTER FOR MEN AND BOYS

This week the news (Guardian, Telegraph, Daily Mail 1, Daily Mail 2) has been grim for men as Mumsnet, the website for metropolitan elite middle class 'yummy mummy' brigade, ran an opinion poll this week that showed how the party's were faring on the so-called "women's vote".

• The Conservatives trail by 13 points among female voters (three times higher than among men)
• Women nevertheless prefer Cameron (43%) to Miliband (34%)
• Six out of 10 women who backed the Lib Dems in 2010 are no longer supporters
• Fewer than half polled believe any of the three main party leaders are interested in women's concerns 

So what does this mean - well of course it means more discrimination against men.

The natural reaction for any politician will be to attract votes where they are weak so that means more female-friendly policies. In a true age of equality that should not matter per se as for example, family friendly policies are also of benefit to fathers and sons.

However, we are not in an era of equality and modern day feminists as we know are not interested in equality, they want supremacy. Modern day feminists are not modern day women - however, they pretend they are and they are the ones who are the metropolitan elite who dominate our public bodies, pressure groups and have the ear of the politicians.

So their reaction will not be family-friendly policies but more misandry. More women-only shortlists/quotas in politics, more quotas on boardrooms, more women-only leadership/training courses etc, more funding for female health problems (not a problem per se but where is the investment in men's health).

In addition, it means none of the areas where men suffer inequality (health, domestic abuse, depression, family law, education, employment) will be touched. This is despite the fact that women on the whole like men so want them to succeed and not face inequality either - especially women with sons etc. You can see how this translates when the Home Secretary cannot bring herself to say that men are victims of domestic abuse too.

The Munset poll therefore will lead to more special treatment for women and the failure of men's inequality issues to be focussed upon. Plus of course probably a dose of traditional men bashing "all men are bastards" schtick with male politicians flogging themselves like Opus Dei converts.

The Mumsnet poll is a disaster for men and boys. They will be punished because not enough women are supporting David Cameron.

Your final para is so on the ball. Public policy is driven by such polls from the metropolitan elite and the emotional appeal of bad stories in the press. Karen Woodall's forensic disection of the misandry driving the closed "Westminster Village" illustrated the well embedded nature of the still acceptable"ism". Of course women are not impressed by the work of any goverment even vaguely attempting to control public spending. For the simple reason that women's "equality" is so dependent on the state( and of course the taxpayer). Mumsnet is no different "taxpayers money please" is the basic message. I just wonder who the majority of tax pagers are? oh. Of course they're men.

I assure you that there will be plenty of female-friendly policies drawn up this side of the election. And if men in the UK are smart, they'll react and let their vote do the talking. After that, the media will get hold of the outcome analysis and the main parties will adjust their stance. Too little too late, i know, but a positive set-up for the next election all the same.

Karen's description of the sinking of gov policy to reduce just a bit the bias of the family courts etc. Very much worth a read.

Groan, we made a FoI request to HMRC and discovered men pay 72% of income tax paid in the UK, £64 Billion more than women. Yet the state assaults men (and boys) through its actions and inactions, never women (and girls).

It is important for every man to write to his MP letting them know that they will be watched for their interest and involvement in men's issues AND that how well they do will determine whether they are voted for at the next election.

It's easy to send an e-mail to your MP and so much more effective than a poll.
