British women are the angriest in Europe – let me list the reasons why

Hell hath no fury: New data suggests that a quarter of UK women report feelings of rage, compared to one in seven in the rest of Europe - (BBC)

No one wants to hear about how angry women are any more, do they? It was bad enough in the wake of Sarah Everard’s murder. Not to mention the endless #MeToo saga. And the roiling wrath sparked by the Epstein files. It’s all a bit... yawn, right? I think we’re pretty much “over” female rage by now.

The problem is – and I’m terribly sorry to be the one to point it out – there always seems to be more and more bullshit for us to be angry about. Especially in the UK.
