Was thinking about the online abuse Diane Abbott has had to endure, and regardless of what you think of her, it made me think that there's no way I'd want to go into politics if that's what I'd have to put up with. Feels like it's yet another way to get women to STFU yet we desperately need more good women in politics, otherwise things will never change.
So wondering if anyone would consider a career in politics and if not, why not?
