This is a bizarre tweet from an MP let alone from the Minister for Women.

Gezza
/ 12th June 2018He’s not a woman, JAG. Leave the poor bastard alone. What are you – a bloody twitter stalker now?
NOEL
/ 13th June 2018Went through a lot of the Briefings to the incoming Ministers as they can provide detail you don’t always see elsewhere. In the contacts many had 50/50 gender balance but some stood out with all women. I know we’ve got to increase the ratio regardless of merit but where’s the balance if the Minister can only get advice from one gender?
Gezza
/ 13th June 2018JAG is going to end up making a permanent pain, pest, & hypocrite of herself.
Gezza

“she jagged herself in the mouth”

/ 13th June 2018What business is it of hers ? If she has time to look at things like Twitter to see who strangers are following, she has too much time on her hands.
The whole 50/50 thing is terribly patronising, anyway.Stuck in the 70s….
A jag can also be a binge,

Gezza
/ 12th June 2018Sam’s post probably related to this earlier one.
Gezza

/ 13th June 2018‘Any comment on why ?’
‘Yes. Mind your own business.’

/ 12th June 2018Some women complain when men follow them. Others complain when they don’t.
Gezza
/ 12th June 2018Be interesting to see if he replies or blocks her. I’ve hardly used Twitter. If you block someone on Twitter do their twits replying to yours still show to others? Anyone know?
Kitty Catkin
/ 13th June 2018Probably not or there’d be little point, I think.
Ray
/ 13th June 2018Just imagine what would happen if people like this got into power!
Too late.
Compulsory 50/50 followers.
Rickmann
/ 13th June 2018What does the Ministry of Women actually do apart from consume oxygen ?
Kitty Catkin
/ 13th June 2018Go on Twitter to congratulate themselves, patronise other women’s achievements and ask nosey questions.
Gezza
/ 13th June 2018No I think it’s just the Greens’ Cranky Yanqui who does that.
Rickmann
/ 13th June 2018Worth every penny !
Kitty Catkin
/ 13th June 2018I’ll say !
