    Dear @EHRC I'd like to report Boris Johnson for refusing a service to someone based on at least two of the protected characteristics outlined in the Equality Act, 2010. Thanks will send official notice shortlyhttps://twitter.com/danbloom1/status/1026396972507377664 …

        Jess doesn't care one jot about white working class girls. They're not her voter base. Her radical feminism is radically selective. Like all of Labour.

        And I *do* hope you also report all those segregated halls at Labour Party meetings. Although I suspect you think that's perfectly fine, brave-hearted feminist that you are.

        hi jess, poll after poll after poll supports a ban on this oppressive, extremist statement by political islam, yet you side with the mullahs who jail and beat women who refuse to wear it. interesting take from a feminist.

        Replying to @jessphillips

        Well done, Jess. I support the right of women to choose what they do or do not wear and to compare women in burqas to bank robbers and letter boxes is abhorrent and does nothing to support those women who don’t have a choice.

        Replying to @thedragonaunt

        You may support the right of women to go around displaying their subjugation to male hierarchy which leaves them as second class citizens deliberately isolating themselves from society. Very liberal of you. But totally unhelpful to equality between sexes and social inclusion

        What exact ‘service’ has he refused them? Look back to Afghanistan or Iran in the 70s and you’ll see that the vast majority of women were liberated and not forced by men to wear such apparel. Those who wear them today are either forced to do so or are subservient. Which is it?
