It's not what you do or say, it's the intention behind it which makes the difference. When our conservatives criticise Islamic conservatives the instinctive response is "look who's talking", and it would be easier to convince them that Islam is bad for women than it is to convince them that LeeCharming(for example)is good for women.
To many liberals Islam is an unknown quantity where homegrown misogynists are a known threat. It's true to say better the Devil you know but this isn't the way things always work out in politics, if it was a case of better the Devil you know we wouldn't be doing Brexit.
Draegoneer: I had actually forgotten about Le Pen. It didn't seem like she was going to win her election quite a long while back and IO never followed up again.
I see she is still hitting some home runs with straight forward addresses. Good for her and the people paying attention.
Yes she is still in the front line, telling it as it is,and she is very chic with it
