One example of this, here in greater Manchester, is private hire taxis. There has been a huge influx of private hire taxis registered in Wolverhampton. Generally in the UK Taxis and their drivers are registered and can ply their trade by and in the local authority area. Wolverhampton has registered over 12% of its local population (90 miles away from Manchester) it is clearly unlikely 12% of any borough's population will be taxi drivers, and the sheer numbers suggest the supposed checks to be registered are likely to have been perfunctory. Net result local Taxi drivers face competition from "asian" drivers flooding the local market, who they know have not met the standards required of them and are using a "loophole" abetted by a Council in the midlands. Even our PC Labour Mayor has highlighted this, though carefully avoiding mentioning the very obvious ethnicity issue.
is interesting. I can't help think that the triumph of feminism, now a part of the school curriculum and effectively the orthodoxy of the establishment, will be its undoing. For rather than simply being nice to women, with the details of the ideology confined to the Universities and Public Services changing laws and policy relatively unseen by the public. Now every schoolboy is exposed to the idea that they are by birth tainted by an original sin that requires they collude with applying arbitrary discrimination against themselves including draconian measures for "looking" or "unwanted compliments". Added to the very public civil war within feminism about Trans and Terf. and one can see the former cloak of just being about being nice to girls and women is looking less and less tenable. Not that this will affect the bumbling old farts, whose misplaced chivalry and hopelessly rosy view of female human nature I'm sure was nurtured in Public schools far from the reality of actual teenage girls in all their viciousness ,as they continue to white knight. But younger generations of young men will increasingly at least see the uncompromisingly hostile nature of feminism to them and their aspirations in life. Which still are basically, get a good job/trade/profession, attract a mate and form a family with a nice home, holidays and some treats. All attitude surveys still show both sexes aspire to much the same, though each time the feminists demand women are "educated" out of such reactionary ideas (as usual they are completely uninterested in what young men think).
