Could YOU be the next whiny feminist of the month? Meet the Justice for Men and Boys party

Tory MP Philip Davies railed against "feminist zealots" at a conference organised by the party. 

By Julia Rampen

Founded in 2013, “J4MB” describes itself as anti-feminist party and “the only political party in the English-speaking world campaigning for the human rights of men and boys”. The leader is Mike Buchanan, who quit the Tory party after David Cameron floated the idea of all-women shortlists. 

Nuh uh. The J4MB party’s website includes categories such as “Lying feminists of the month”, “Whiny feminists of the month”, “Toxic feminists of the month” and “Gormless feminists of the month”. (The WEP, which wants to see “see women enjoy the same rights and opportunities as men” by “uniting people of all genders”, doesn’t have a month anything.)
