It was 10 years ago today that Gordon Brown (the then PM) called "that Woman" he spoke to on his campaign trail a bigot. Unsurprisingly to most of us, he called her that mainly because she was publicly exhibiting bigot-like behaviour and opinions. At that precise moment there appeared a huge rip in the space-time continuum and a new branch split off from the one we were on. From then on it became worse to call someone a bigot than to actually be one! Subsequently, the rest of cultural history, fake news, Brexit, Trump, Tories, Islamophobia, austerity, social-justice-warriors and gender pronouns falls neatly into place..
