      @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 & while it's great we've had a female PM, it's not great Labour & Tories haven't had a female leader since

          @NotaTypicalTory @5050Parliament if the stats backed you up, then fine. But they don't - if there was no reason, we would see 50/50(ish)

          @5050Parliament I can't help but feel that this tweet was trying to suggest I was making out that women couldn't be competent MPs

          @NotaTypicalTory both men & women make competent MPs but their life experiences tend to be different & Parliament needs to draw upon both

        @lm_french @5050Parliament I will vote for her in the leadership if it ever happens, because I adore her charisma and views, not her gender

        @lm_french @5050Parliament And as a caveat to that, a female, lesbian Scot is our leader in Scotland and likely a future Prime Minister
