Yet another piece of lunacy from a European Court. Now, it seems, insurance companies will no longer be permitted to use certain well established criteria for assessing risk or life expectancy when determining premiums as this is deemed to be discriminatory towards women. The fatuous nonsense of 'gender equality' has been used to bring about a completely ridiculous interpretation of the law.
Let's be clear. Men and women are NOT equal; they are different shapes and sizes, have different bodily structures and functions and different outlooks on life. Women tend te be more risk averse than men and, on average, they live longer; to reflect these differences in insurance, and other, premiums is simple commonsense. For a court to come to a decision that, effectively, denies these fundamental facts of life is farcical in the extreme.
What more idiotic rulings can we expect from European courts ? We still have the 'votes for prisoners' fiasco rumbling on and, no doubt, the anonymous and unaccountable judges have many more acts of lunacy lined up for us. Will our Government never come to its senses and separate us from all this madness ?
