Some stupid woman interviewed on the streets of America. I once had a bible-reading girlfriend who had the same attitude, the man should be the head of the household ... but she made an exception for me!

I think your 2nd description of her was superior to your 1st.

What about Thatcher (although I disagreed wiith a lot of what she did), Golda Meir, Indira Gandi, Condoleezza Rice, Angela Merkel.

OK Truss is the exception that proves the rule. She is an idiot - but that isn't because she's a woman it's because she's an idiot.

Just imagine if Truss was the first female prime minister. What a slap in the face that would have been for women. :lol: :lol:

Now that is funny and profound.... IMO. :-)

EDIT: Apologies for the off-topic tangent there.

Apparently being married to a ex president is now deemed enough to be considered for the post. I hope other professions don't go the same way. Wouldn't fancy my dentists missus having a go at my teeth :lol:

What really grinds my gears is when somebody says, my husband's an IT technician so I know what I'm talking about! :lol:

50% of IT people are winging it. It's a case of having your incompetence found out.
But then ALL of my former IT employers just chucked me in and essentially said "OK, can you sort that out please?".
And actually the question mark was an exclamation, often not including "please".

Trump is a lay for me at 2.04. Not all Americans are stupid. One of Hayley's supporters said he wouldn't vote for Donald Trump if he was running the dog catcher!

Many of Hayley's supporters could be voting for Biden or not at all.

You should wait Derek, I expect his price to go much lower in the next month to around 1.70

I think Joe Biden needs Hayley's supporters, he must be sweating so much about losing the election. If Trump takes over the presidency next year, as expected. I think Holy Joe will be going in to a penitentiary for a few years.

Its a pity that Betfair does not offer markets on court cases, oh the fun!
