Cadged from Ed Driscoll:
...“In his prophetic novel, 1984, George Orwell perfectly described Haley, Styx and all the rest of these female fascists: ‘It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and the nosers-out of unorthodoxy.’”...
The Blue-Haired Geezers are usually accompanied by actually 'young' ones. So Orwell's maxim "....always the women..." holds true.
Orwell didn't mention the Henpecked Twits who have to drive and find parking.
