Tory Shaun Bailey who will take on Sadiq Khan in next year’s London Mayoral election, spoke out in favour of school discipline. Bailey gives the impression that there were no women who educated him: “When I was a kid, there was none of that PC nonsense. If you were wrong, they told you so. Our teachers were men, and we looked up to them. It was not a democracy."

He has also argued that accommodating Muslims and Hindus “Robs Britain of its community” and risks turning the country into a “crime-riddled cesspool”.

Shades of "Rivers of blood"?

Had to search to see who he was but once I saw him I recognized him from interviews. He came across surprisingly well in them, actually. I wouldn't rule out him winning. His politics will likely appeal to the Right, and his skin-colour will pull the rug-out from underneath the race-obsessed Left, a little.
 
Tory candidate in preaching the party line shocker :rolleyes:

The world has changed since he grew up. My youngest's primary school is all female teachers and also the head. They have had male teachers but both left for other schools. The oldest's secondary school (an all girls grammar) seems more even. Don't think its 50/50, but certainly more male teachers around, the head is female.

Male teachers were the more the norm when I grew up (I'm 51 now). It was 50/50 at the primary school and I doubt it it was more than 20% female at the secondary school.

According to: https://www.ethnicity-facts-figures...rce-diversity/school-teacher-workforce/latest the majority of teachers (in England) are female.
 
He’ll get a decent amount of votes with that kind of pandering but I doubt talking about Hindus and Muslims like that is gonna go down well with most constituencies.

Oh I’ve also had mostly female teachers growing up (90% at least) and all but one of them, who was new to teaching, had problems with discipline.

I'd say it was 50/50 at my secondary school, I'm 36.

Our head was a man though.
 
The trend has been away from men in primary and secondary education. The health industry is quite heavily female skewed as is local government at least that's what the women I know working in those sectors tell me. I'm in my 40's and my education was probably 70:30 men to women I doubt that statistic has prevailed.

I imagine Shaun Bailey has made many reasonable statements that can be presented in an unflattering slant.

Appealing to the right in London... Yes it's such a glorious Right-wing heaven it is. The reality is that their previous guy lost because he was white and saying some rather unpleasant **** about his opponent, so lets get the token black dude out as they can't possibly use the same argument.

Tories gonna Tory. He isn't going to win.
 
A lot of people in the black community aren't as indoctrinated as the wider community when it comes to certain subjects.

At least the guy is coming up with alternative suggestions to our current broken system.
 
I don't know this candidate or his policies. So I can't comment on most of it. But I think he has a point with regards male teachers. In my day is was again about 70/30 men to women. I don't actually care whether I had male or female teachers. But I can see an issue nowadays where a boy has very little male influence in his life if he is brought up by a single mum and doesn't even have any male teachers.
