It's a right mansplain in the neck

Mary Lou loves a lazy dig at Martin

- 

THIS shouldn't require an explanation. But a man explaining something isn't a man mansplaining something - it's a man explaining something.

Let me explain... Mary Lou McDonald has told Micheal Martin that she doesn't need him to “mansplain” the economy to her.

Maybe so - but someone needs to explain to Mary Lou that Micheal Martin isn't “mansplaining”

He talks to everyone like that, especially about the economy.

DRAGGED

Apology time now: We're only four paragraphs into this week's column and not only has politics been dragged into it, but there's a mention of the economy too.

Sorry about that. It's Saturday - nobody needs politics and the economy on a Saturday, not even politicians or economists.
