I rest my case, this is by far the most absurd visual of Left leaning governing. It can only make your head shake. It comes out of Stockholm, Sweden. It seems snow fall removal is sexist in this northern country. How, you might ask?
Previously, fresh snowfalls were cleared first from main roads and by areas like construction sites before being removed from pavements and cycle lanes. As men are more likely to drive and women more likely to travel on foot, more women slipped on the ice which led to complaints that the system was sexist. So the sidewalks were cleared first, not thinking about public transportation and life saving ambulances, fire trucks and police vehicles. Hundreds of thousands of people were affected, with the majority of bus routes put out of service and commuters having to wait hours to get to their destinations.
We do not have to put much effort into figuring out the Left leaning Progressive Red-Green coalition is responsible for this type of lunacy. Politicians from the Social Democratic Party, Green Party, Left Party, and Feminist Initiative, were elected to City Hall in 2014 the introduction of a “feminist” snow clearance was high on the agenda. But police last week said the system is so bad, it posed a danger to society. Officer Fredrik Ståhle branded the conditions for drivers in the city “deplorable”.
Opposition vice-mayor Cecilia Brinck called the concept of “gender-equal” snow removal “a little silly”.
As usual emotion, good intentions and no logic by those on the left has put all in danger. A good lesson for all of us when it comes to left leaning social justice.
