I can't find that it has been announced anywhere? Seems like they don't think it's an important post to fill!

I'm sure someone on here said she's going to do both

Bluestitch · 01/05/2019 20:22

She's continuing with the Women and Equalities role.

Grimbles · 01/05/2019 20:43

They'll probably give Christopher Chope the job.

endofthelinefinally · 01/05/2019 20:45

She is so capable she is going to do both.Hmm

theOtherPamAyres · 01/05/2019 21:09

There are Junior Ministers with portfolios.

Victoria Atkins MP is the parliamentary under secretary for Women in the Women and Equalities Department.

The Civil Servants are still the same.

The lobby groups stakeholders are still the same

In other words, the Minister moves on but the agenda continues

MeltedEggMum · 01/05/2019 21:33

I'll take it, if there's a job going. Been meaning to get into politics.

Angryresister · 01/05/2019 22:11

I guess secrets will be safe with her.....She stays so quiet on so many issues and rarely answers questions,

R0wantrees · 01/05/2019 22:36

Info from BlueStitch on current thread, Penny Mordant is going to keep Women & Equalities

OccasionalKite · 01/05/2019 22:52

Oh FFS... really

Persifleur · 01/05/2019 22:55

Is this a clusterfuck or merely an omnishambles?
Enquiring minds etc.

Redshoeblueshoe · 01/05/2019 22:56

Melted if you know what a woman is I'll give you her job Grin

OccasionalKite · 01/05/2019 23:00

Yes, Melted.
If you know what a woman is, then tell me your campaign colours, and I'll start sewing a ribbon rosette!

cheesenpickles · 01/05/2019 23:03

Mmm she's my MP. Guess the constituency is going to fall even further down the list potentially.

omniclusteroffuckingshambles?

truthisarevolutionaryact · 01/05/2019 23:04

As she evidently doesn't can't spot the difference between men and women, how the hell is she going to know the difference between a soldier, a sailor or a pilot? We're doomed Grin

Redshoeblueshoe · 01/05/2019 23:06

Truth your right
We're doomed, I tell ya, we're all doomed Grin

robinsarebins · 01/05/2019 23:13

I wonder if penny knows the definition of the word defence. Or if it even matters.
What a joke.
I feel quite unsafe actually.

FemaleAndLearning · 01/05/2019 23:14

theOtherPamAyres yes you are right the civil servants stay the same, disappointing.
I've been watching the House of Parliament Select Committees lately, seems like a lot of stuff is done in these.
