STOP GOING ON ABOUT THE NUMBER OF WOMEN IN TOP JOBS. People should be appointed on ABILITY not their possession of breasts. FFS.

@JuliaHB1 what makes you think that they are not better than the men? -
@caronmlindsay the discussion is about appointing women for the sake of appointing women, ie. Not on merit. -
@JuliaHB1@caronmlindsay I don't believe it is. I see nothing that suggests these selections are on merit. Inane view. -
@annienunan@caronmlindsay I didn't say these appointments were based on merit. I just don't want women appointed simply cos they are women. -
@JuliaHB1 entirely agree but there is no question there are woman equal to the top jobs in Labour.

@JuliaHB1 Evidence suggests that a positive discrimination system actually ups the quality of post holders -
@caronmlindsay what evidence? Give me 2 female Labour MPs, within 30 secs of them speaking, I can tell which got in on women-only shortlist - End of conversation

@JuliaHB1@caronmlindsay Especially when there are plenty talented female MP's to fill roles. -
@fitalass@caronmlindsay who exactly? Name them. -
@JuliaHB1@caronmlindsay Stella Creasey & Mary Creagh straigh off I'm no Lab supporter, but believe enough female talent to merit a top job.
