Stockholm’s “gender-equal” snow-clearing policy is not to blame for the traffic chaos which has engulfed the Swedish capital, the architect of the policy has claimed.
“Gender-equal snow cleaning is not to blame here,” Daniel Helldén, the city’s Green Party transport head told the Expressen newspaper, stressing that the policy, which prioritizes cleaning pavements and cycle lanes over roads, did not even appear to have even been followed. […]
Stockholm’s municipal government, a coalition of the Social Democrats and the Green Party, brought in gender equal snow cleaning last year, pledging to make moving around the city on icy winter days just as safe for women as it is for men.

Where are the Muslims when it snows?

If they are wearing white burquas, they are too close...
That’s the thing, they talk about woman’s rights but
the fetus is NOT JUST THE FEMALE.
Funny how it works, if a man doesn’t want to have a

The Onion?

Intellectuals yet idiots.
That’s what the title suggested to me also. But leave it to Greens and SocDems to make it something bizarre.
Who translates this stuff?
Probably people from Britain or who learned British English. “Pavement” is one thing they call the sidewalk; the other is “footpath” or “path”.
