"Men and women are different, it’s a fact. [...] Yet this is not allowed to be a reason to prevent equality in the fields where men are better on the whole – for example, when it comes to jobs that require great strength. Ah no, that would be sexist. A woman must have equality and do whatever she wants, except, when it comes to wearing a prison uniform, obviously."

Philip Davies
Sir Philip Andrew Davies (born 5 January 1972) is a British politician who served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Shipley in West Yorkshire from 2005 to 2024. A member of the Conservative Party, he voted against his party's parliamentary whip over 250 times, making him the most rebellious Conservative MP of his era. He was criticised for "talking out" parliamentary bills not supported by the government and by doing so "kill off legislation he doesn't like".
