Yes, violence against a woman.

 

What’s as bad is the support he’s given for his behavior.

So you think violence against men is OK?

These women should of been handled only by other women (security) though it should of never got to that point anyway, somebody dropped the ball. Terrible optics and the continuing chaos in the political system is embarrassing. The MP looks like he's getting off on it, must treat his wife lovingly. lol 

Sure, and a black guy handled only by a black gay, a transsexual only by a transsexual, a gay only by a gay, a Muslim only by a Muslim, and a disabled person only by someone with the same disability as them.

You've missed the point entirely. All this fuss is because the intruder was a woman. She was removed with reasonable force and had she not been a woman this "story" would have received no attention whatsoever.

Exactly.

The woman in question clearly didn't have a "concealed semi-automatic" under her dress - and if she did, it would have taken an age to reveal and construct.....

 

Never mind how you look at it IMO, this is a case where the security services failed when they allowed her to enter - and a junior minister who suddenly felt 'brave' (????) when confronted with a middle-aged woman that annoyed him.

Appreciated DD but in an era that has seen a deadly perfume container on the streets of Salisbury that wouldn't have appeared out of place in her hand that night or a flannel being used elsewhere during a successful assassination I remain of the opinion that her treatment, although regrettable, was timely and proportionate.

Nothing to apologise for.

World has gone mad when protestors are allowed to disrupt proceedings with loudspeakers. The cops should have been the ones marching her out in handcuffs- what were they doing? Perhaps they were having a nice cup of tea, and singing kumbaya.

Women can't have it both ways. They've been telling us for decades that they are as good as men, and should be treated equally. She was.

 

BTW, I worked in a female dominated job for decades, which was enough to cure me of any thought that they are a "weaker" gender than men.
