@lm_french @HouseofTwits @5050Parliament No we do not. MPs should be elected based on their ability to do the job, not by their gender.
Support @5050Parliament - shocking only 29% of MPs are female (with a disclaimer that we need non-binary MPs too!)pic.twitter.com/z8STYp1SDX

@CllrChrisWood@HouseofTwits@5050Parliament so are you suggesting females don't have the ability to be an MP? -
@lm_french@HouseofTwits@5050Parliament No I am saying gender does not matter when it comes to ones ability to be an MP. -
@CllrChrisWood and that is what I'm saying too, and why I don't understand why the HoC isn't already 50/50(ish) -
.
@lm_french@CllrChrisWood It is curious that we do not already have a#5050Parliament#BestofBoth#OneWayorAnotherpic.twitter.com/KGRu9O2eqS

@lm_french@5050Parliament I'll pass thanks, I want my MPs elected on merit, not their gender -
@NotaTypicalTory@5050Parliament so are you suggesting that women don't have enough merit to be MPs? -
@lm_french@5050Parliament No, but this campaign sounds exactly like the kind thing that supports all women shortlists -
@NotaTypicalTory@5050Parliament so then why don't you think it is 50/50?We make up 50% of the population... -
@NotaTypicalTory@5050Parliament & while it's great we've had a female PM, it's not great Labour & Tories haven't had a female leader since -
@lm_french@5050Parliament See, you focus on their identities, if they are male or female. I focus on their ideals, visions and policies -
@NotaTypicalTory@5050Parliament it must be nice to not have to worry about the unconscious bias against you -
@lm_french@5050Parliament must be hell to believe there is an imaginary global patriarchy trying to keep you downpic.twitter.com/q0jywFt4eY

Good luck with the ''Non-binary '' - Not knowing if you are Darren or Karen does not look like a winner to me
