Men should do at least half the housework, according to the European Parliament.
Quote
The European Union is being asked to make sure men do at least half of the household chores as part of a “strategy for equality”.

A committee of the European Parliament in Strasbourg wants the EU to launch a campaign to highlight the “equal division of domestic work”.

The Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality claims the “unequal division of family responsibilities” needs to be tackled by introducing “measures encouraging men’s participation in domestic labour.”

A leading Tory MP today blasted the plan, and called for the EU to stop its “ridiculous meddling”.

Equality campaigners point to research which shows in the UK 70 per cent of all housework is done by women, and nearly two-thirds of all chores is done by them even if they work over 30 hours per week.

The comments were submitted as part of the ‘EU Strategy for equality between women and men post 2015’, and drew derision from Tory MP Philip Davies.

He told The Huffington Post UK: “With Greece and the eurozone reaching crisis point, you would think the EU would have better things to be doing than lecturing families on who should be doing the housework.

“It is this kind of ridiculous meddling in things that are none of their business which has helped to bring the EU into such disrepute”

Ukip MEP Louise Bours also spoke out against the proposal, and told The Huffington Post UK: “What kind of organisation interferes to this extent in the private lives of people – their marriages, their partnerships?

“It is up to adults in the privacy of their own homes to decide who does what – it is not the place of any government, and certainly not the place of EU bureaucrats, to decide who does and who doesn't do the dishes."

The main focus of the text adopted by the European Parliament in Strasbourg last week was on tackling violence against women and reducing the gender the pay gap.

The text also claimed there has “been a slowdown in political action and reform for gender equality during the last decade at EU level”.

But as well as focusing on an increase in paternity leave and flexible working, it also called for the introduction of “awareness campaigns for the equal division of domestic work.”

The explanatory comments included in the original report, produced by the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality, go even further.

Produced by German MEP Maria Noichi, it read: “The rapporteur is calling on the Commission to consider whether it should lay down specific targets and penalties with a view to reducing the gender pay gap. Furthermore, if a better work-life balance is to be achieved, men will have to devote more time to housework and caring.”

The Fawcett Society, which campaigns for equality between women and men in the UK on pay, pensions, poverty, justice and politics, declined to comment on whether the EU was acting appropriately.

A spokeswoman told The Huffington Post UK: “What is appropriate is that the EU is striving to address the pay gap between men and women and improve the lives of children and families.”

The European Union and toxic feminism.

Fuck me, just burn it to the ground.

The official HBO website has him confirmed as dead.

Kit Harington also is not returning, and the showrunners have officially axed him from the show.

Basically everyone except those who know how to play the game are dead/will die. It's a fact I've accepted at this point.
Fuck HBO, then.

The books are the only storylines which matter.

I'm a rather closed person. I don't like bothering people with my own problems so I don't talk about my actual ones.

Also, I'm way too wary of people's reactions if I say something out of whack, so I'm percieved as the "cutely awkward" guy, and that pisses me off for so many reasons.
Oh hey it's the cutely awkward guy

After just 45 minutes.

Greece and its creditors hardened their stances on Monday after the collapse of talks aimed at preventing a default and possible euro exit, prompting Germany's EU commissioner to say the time had come to prepare for a "state of emergency".

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras ignored pleas from European leaders to act fast. Instead he blamed creditors for Sunday's breakdown of the cash-for-reform talks, the biggest setback in long-running negotiations to unlock aid. He said his government had a responsibility to defend Greece's dignity and would resist demands for further pension cuts.

"It is not a matter of ideological stubbornness. It has to do with democracy," said the 40-year-old leftist, who was elected on a pledge to end austerity.

Athens now has just two weeks to find a way out of the impasse before it faces a 1.6 billion euro repayment due to the International Monetary Fund, potentially leaving it out of cash, unable to borrow and dangling on the edge of the currency area.

Germany and other creditor nations demanded that Athens come to its senses and offer new proposals.

"It won't work that Greece sets the terms and says 'everyone has to dance to our tune'. Greece needs to get back to reality," Volker Kauder, parliamentary floor leader of Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives, told ARD television.

Belgian Finance Minister Johan Van Overtveldt said the euro zone's credibility would be damaged and radical forces in other countries emboldened if past accords with Greece were changed.

The European Commission said it would only resume mediation efforts if Greece put forward new proposals, while the Greek government spokesman said Athens was sticking to its rejection of wage and pension cuts and higher taxes on basic goods.

"We have largely exhausted our limits," spokesman Gabriel Sakellaridis said. Tsipras' office said Greece was ready to restart talks at any time and was waiting for a signal from lenders which could loosen the deadlock.

"If they call us with something new, we may also provide something new," one official said.

A Greek government official denied a German newspaper report that said there were plans for Greece to impose capital controls this weekend if the talks fail. A German government spokesman could not confirm the report.

Despite the deepening crisis, Tsipras is going ahead with a planned visit to Russia from Thursday, the day euro zone finance ministers hold a crucial meeting to review the standoff with Greece. He is due to stay till Saturday, attend an economic forum in Saint Petersburg and meet President Vladimir Putin.

EU officials said that without improved Greek proposals by Thursday, the Eurogroup session would be very tough and was likely to present Greece with an ultimatum.

"No more new proposals; take it or leave it time is upon us, I think. Or very close." one euro zone official said.

While there was little outward sign of panic in Athens as Greeks held out hope for a last-minute solution - a familiar theme in five years of crisis - the latest impasse triggered a selloff in European and Asian shares and weighed on the euro.

Greek banks suffered deposit outflows of about 400 million euros ($449 million) on Monday as the pace of daily withdrawals picked up from last week, bankers said.

European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said the ECB would keep approving emergency lending to Greek banks as long as they remained solvent but would monitor closely whether they had sufficient collateral.

Draghi stressed in testimony to the European Parliament it was up to elected politicians, not to central bankers, to decide on Greece's fate and the ECB could not allow its liquidity to be used illegally to finance the Greek government.

"While all actors will now need to go the extra mile, the ball lies squarely in the camp of the Greek government to take the necessary steps," Draghi said.

Greece will doom us all.

using the A-bomb on the US or Britain would be worse than using it on a place like Japan.
How so?
Because the US and Britain were, at least at the time, a helluva lot better than Japan from an ethical perspective. I'd rather have the US at the top of the world than 1940s Japan.

I disagree, because I couldn't care less about "ethnic groups". People are people.
Depends on the ethnic group's culture, really.

I agree that the Chinese aren't that distinguishable from the Jews for us to be able to draw moral conclusions, whereas, say, using the A-bomb on the US or Britain would be worse than using it on a place like Japan. But my original point is that I don't find it very interesting simply because it's what you'd expect given the state of Japanese culture at the time, and the size of the Chinese population.
