I'm just curious. Why is it that we still don't have equal representation. Since the terrible spectacle of the Blair Babes the whole subject seems to have been swept under the carpet - and women MP's get loads of air time so it doesn't look as though parliament is still stuffed full of men but it is. 143 women and 507 men. And does it matter? Would the decision about housing benefit, child benefit and tuition fees have been any different if as many women as men had been voting on it? Dunno.
