THAT'S THE LAST TIME I'M LETTING THE WIFE DRIVE!

WOMEN IN SAUDI ARABIA ARE BANNED FROM DRIVING!

Saudi women campaigning for an end to laws banning them from driving, have designated Friday as their own day of direct action.

An online campaign, Women2Drive, urges those with international driving licences – so that they cannot be arrested purely on the grounds of being unqualified – to test the law.

They are being asked to do so individually, in contrast to the last incident of mass disobedience over the issue, in 1990, when 47 women who drove in convoy around the capital, Riyadh, in a show of strength.

They were quickly arrested, and many were ostracised and fired from their jobs.

Now when I read this, I thought, "there are two ways to play this, outrage at women not being allowed to drive and therefore should we be bombing the Saudis or should we be congratulating them for keeping the streets safe". On doing a little research, I found that women in Libya are allowed to drive, indeed under Gaddafi, they have freedoms and rights that they don’t have in many other Arab countries. They also have one of the best healthcare systems anywhere in the world. What of course the West doesn't understand is that most Arab countries are tribal states, unlike our 'great democracies' and therefore a lot of the unrest is caused by, 'when two tribes go to war', a song I remember from the 80s, when of course it's not caused by some Twatter in Aberdeen pretending to be a one-legged, Arab lesbian with plooks.

It's OK though, because Dave has said that Gaddafi won't be able to attend the Olympics in London next year. Does that mean then, that he's still going to be in power? And if so, what the fuck are we doing in Libya?

GENDER EQUALITY-YOUNG WOMENS' CAR INSURANCE TO ROCKET!

Young women drivers could see their insurance premiums rocket by £4,300 over a key eight year period because of a legal ruling by the European Union.

On Tuesday EU judges will rule whether the fact that women are charged lower premiums than men breaches sex discrimination laws.

If they decide it does, female drivers under 26 are likely to see costs rise by about 25 per cent, while men will see insurance rates drop by about 10 per cent, according to the Association of British Insurers.

Now, at the risk of sounding like an old fart, it is a statistical fact that women actually have MORE accidents than young men, per mile driven.  Although they tend to be more minor than mens', nevertheless, why should men pay a lot more for their insurance?  Women wanted equality and this is just the jammy side of the bread.

It may be just my experience, but I find nowadays when a 'boy racer' passes you, it's just as likely to be a 'girl racer'.  There is also a safety issue here.  Have you ever looked at some womens' shoes when they get out of the car?  How the fuck, can they drive in those heels?

Women, in my opinion, should be made to pas a different test from men as they are obviously, on average, not as competent at driving as men.  Apart from that, they're always looking at themselves in the mirror, as if it's the only reason it's there, is to put their make-up on with and they're always on the fucking phone to someone!

No, No, women should actually pay a lot more than men as they probably cause a great deal of accidents with shoes, make-up and phones and it's time the Department of Transport, changed the rules.
