Hollie Ridley and Teddy Ryan - the arms industry ‘power couple’? Well, that certainly seems that way as a Declassified investigation shows
I wonder if the canary realise that they are making the same argument here as was made to not give women the vote. Namely, that a married couple will have the same views.
Granted, I do struggle to see how anyone could be married to a lobbist - let alone for arms - but association is not proof of a view.
Is there a risk? Sure, and it needs to be recorded as a potential conflict of interests and managed correctly - and, again, given all the other dumb shit that has happened this week I am sceptical that that has happened - but the assertion being made here is not a good look, at best, and arguably misogynistic at worst.
