Britain falls behind many “3rd” World countries…

for women’s political representation.
Ha!
Britain has tumbled out of the international top 50 for women’s political representation, with its proportion of female MPs ranking well below those of Mozambique, Iraq, Mexico, and Tunisia.
The UK languishes at 51 in the Inter-Parliamentary Union’s latest table, which emerges as the Hansard Society’s fourth Women at the Top report, to be published on Thursday, warns that only all-women shortlists (AWS) will close the gender gap in parliament. Women make up 19.8% of the Commons, while Rwanda leads the world with 48.8%. Sweden has 45.3%, Mozambique 34.8% and Iraq 31.5%.
