Default Woman only carraiges - says Corbyn

It seems the intellectual powerhouse masquarading as a naive wet 70s throwback
has suggested women only carraiges would be a good idea.

Aside from the obvious problems with enforcing it, I'd love to know how this
towering genius suggests this would take place on the walk through trains that
are becoming more and more popular such as LU S Stock and 378s.

He'll probably be suggesting women only trains next to overcome that
problem.

The lunatics are taking over the asylum.

It's OK. He is going to reopen all the coal mines as well, so it will be
steam engines and compartment stock again.

He must have been watching the BBC TV programmes on trains in Mumbai.
So next thing will be doors that don't shut with good handles for
hanging on outside the train.

This came up on Any Questions and one of Corbyn's supporters pointed out
that he did not call for women only carriages, just that it should be
put out for consultation (or something like that). Makes me think this
is one of the problems with Corbyn, he could not say that it was a
stupid idea but puts out everything for discussion / consulation / etc.
He does not like making decisions.

Don't forget, a lot of people from the "Ladies only" era of
compartment stock, wrongly called compartments carriages.
