@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)
@lm_french @5050Parliament Yet every year the percentage gets more and more equitable
I want competent MPs, you just seem to want female 1s
@NotaTypicalTory Women make competent MPs. They have a wide range of relevant experience & skills 50% graduates & 60% law grads @wlm_french
@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
@5050Parliament And women might naturally of their own free will choose to take different career paths
@NotaTypicalTory It is important that Parliament attracts & draws upon the widest poss range of talented, skilled people incl 32 m UK women
