In response to the attacks on women in Germany a train company has decided to declare some carriages ‘women only’. I take issue with this on a number of levels. I’m sure the left wing feministas will struggle with the concept of segregation but they’ll also be reticent in their response, if they respond at all. It takes those on the centre right to take up women’s rights and preserve our hard won freedoms. Firstly, as a woman I really object to being segregated in any circumstance, least of all on a train. As a wife, a mother of two boys and a female politician, I’m dismayed that the wrong message is being sent to the males in my life. Just because a small minority of men from a very different culture and religion are abusing Western hospitality, culture and norms, my men feel very strongly that their way of life and liberty is being threatened. How long will it be until they are told they cannot travel on women only trains in the UK? Or that the taxi they hail can only be used by women? They will feel stigmatised because of the actions of a small number of men
