That Bigoted Woman

I wouldn't be much of a political commentator if I didn't make some kind of noise about Bigotgate, or whatever the press will inevitably moronically label it. Prime Minister does not like being confronted by mildly irate middle aged woman! There was some other report about bears and something they do in the woods, but I didn't look at the specifics. Yes, it looks bad, but do you really think the other leaders haven't had that moment of venting about someone they'd rather have not clashed with on the campaign trail? I imagine they simply did it rather further away from a microphone.

Basically this is a lot of noise over nothing, more desperate clamouring to make this election about more than trivial issues such as the economy, healthcare or immigration. If you want something to really get angry about, something that really does show the level of hypocrisy in the government, then check out the story of Bita Ghaedi and how she's being deported despite almost certainly facing death. I'll let this story speak for itself.
