Hands up!

[Vagus]

Err nope, I'm female and have an electric 🚗 

[Tilly2]

Same here, Vagus. Snap!

The main thing they need to heed is that, when flying, avoid peaks.

Otherwise somebody needs to get a real job instead of poncing about with this stuff.

Do bears go to the toilet in the woods?

[Tilly2]

I found it interesting.

[Vagus]

I did too Tilly, as a generalisation, I find it's men who cause problems in many areas.

Some of them are also very nice 😉

[fraser]

a bit racist but you are allowed to these days if yousaid that   about any other race who would be condemned.

[jourdain2]

None of the above!

[jourdain2]

fraser - just seen this.  You are right of course.  I never even thought about it, but yes, if you substituted 'black' or 'asian' for'white'............ there would be HELL to pay. 

Very, very worrying.

[jourdain2]

Yikes! It is also sexist and ageist....................!!!!!!!

Shows how stupid all these 'isms' are.  Now how about 'wealthism'?

[fraser]

thank jourdain2 iam not the person who thinks sense.

[Old_Geezer]

More woke idiocy ?

I'll be glad when we find out what's causing it, maybe then we can get back to sanity.

[Tilly2]

Nobody's put their hand up yet.

[Togo]

Ahh if only I were wealthy, I might qualify.   ...  Are You A White, Female, Wealthy, Middle Aged, Drains and Landfill Polluter? With your "wipes" and panty liners. Perfume bottles and deodorant containers. Makeup detrious and nail products. Discarded clothes and shoes that are "unfashionable" wasted food and fad diet requirements? Need I go on? 

[Deskdiary]

It's the Guardian - a rag of a paper and easily ignored.

[dave50]

Who cares?

[Deskdiary]

Any paper that allows Polly Toynbee to write for them with her extreme left absurd thoughts is a paper not worth reading.

[newmodarmy]

I wonder what the definition is of the 'most deprived' given that they seem to be find the money for so many air flights

[Tilly2]

Pst...Togo doesn't wear deodorant. 😉

[douglas9401]

Maybe not but word is he rinses and re-uses his panty liners.
