Uh. I don't think it's drawing a long bow to say that they might well share some beliefs as many married couples do. No one's saying she 'seeks permission' from her Kev for anything. Bit over-sensitive there. It's current company who can't comment for employment reasons I was thinking of.

Didn't I read somewhere that a certain Mrs Panic-pants had been commuting from darkest Welli to ensure the rag's ideological rigour is maintained? Current company not expected to comment on that.

I wouldn't want to assume that any one of those positions was the right one, or the only acceptable one.
But you can't ignore the context where only one of those positions is supported by the weight of stereotype and established industry norms.
It's not a level playiong field, and it's much easier to marshall public sympathy for something like the Catwalk Trust's rank begging campaign than for anything of wider and more achievable benefit.

would quite probably cause me to lose my temper
Just as well you've avoided much of the trad disability politics scene then. Rampant hair loss.
