Love or hate RT this is wonderful

... We can only assume the chapter on how to give advance warning to a perceived enemy, while letting them know you’re not quite ready at the moment, is in the extended edition of Sun Tzu’s Art of War ...

there has to be more behind this.

I doubt he would resign just for a hand on the knee which JHB has already laughed off.

Wasn't it a hand on the knee several times?

Maybe there was method in his apparent madness though - Being bang to rights and resigning over a blatant but relatively trivial misdemeanour, in order to avoid being in the spotlight and hauled up for some previous more serious one that since he has resigned may become moot?

I think women need to take a different tacki.

This is how to deal with sex pests.

I think our culture needs a bit of root cause analysis starting with the advertising industry and the use of female sexuality to get attention and extract money from stupid, weak men.

Then look at religious beliefs around the subject and how it royally screws people up and the cognitive dissonance between the two.

In 'primitive' tribal cultures' you don't get any of this because sexuality is treated as nature intended.

If I was a feminist I'd be going after advertising culture and looking to how that can change. Also I wouldn't be targeting and shaming men but instead 'educating' and talking to the women and girls who make careers out of spreading the culture of objectification.

Since it was a staged stunt how does it work in real life? And not all sex pests are gropers.

Anyone know much about the new chap? I'm guessing another warmongering flipwit?

Laura Kuenssberg said last night that a few hours before he announced his resignation documents were presented to number 10 which may have hastened his decision.

I should imagine they'll be on the front pages on Sunday morning.

On this subject, Simon Ricketts on Twitter a couple of days ago: "A little secret. Sometimes, newspaper stories you deem as ‘weak’ are part of an attempt to draw out better evidence on a bigger story." So yes, I suspect there are much more interesting stories than JHB's knee that are on the verge of being revealed.

It's quite possible that he's gone in such a rush because he's been asked by some journalist if he wants to comment on such a story, and realised he'd better jump before he was pushed.

That means JHB is as devious as I always though she was, as she clearly knew the parliamentary rumours about Fallon to state he touched her knee.
