Lots of good things came out of the Women and Equalities Select Committee Meeting yesterday! All the men on the panel said "Yes" Parliament would be better if it consisted of 50% men and 50% women = A result! And Jeremy Corbyn set a goal for 50% of Labour MPs to be women by 2020. We were #SentOut of the Committee Room for putting on our fab #5050Parliament t-shirts (they didn't want a "strip-tees" again) see https://www.facebook.com/5050Parliament/photos/a.590909254325090.1073741830.545350858880930/1118952908187386/?type=3&theater The good news is we are getting noticed and clearly Parliament is listening, but we have to keep asking! We loved the piece in the Guardian which gave a good summing up of what was said and quoted Frances "140% more men than women in the Commons ...is a democratic disgrace." https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/oct/12/jeremy-corbyn-sets-goal-50-per-cent-labour-mps-women-by-2020?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Keep asking friends and family to sign up to our cause. Thanks! Frances, Apolline, Natasha, Charlie, Brain all #5050Parliament Team
