DC's plans for forcing 50% female shortlists is going to seriously damage the Tories in the run-up to the election.wonkotsanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896256040598397497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-1156425404351652992006-08-24T14:16:00.000+01:002006-08-24T14:16:00.000+01:00Mr Dale,How do you know Cheryl Gillan is a woman?Mr Dale,<BR/><BR/>How do you know Cheryl Gillan is a woman?Archbishop Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16817505540390495385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-1156425342713766862006-08-24T14:15:00.000+01:002006-08-24T14:15:00.000+01:00Iain, they have only just calmed down from the las...Iain, they have only just calmed down from the last "A" list rant on ConHom.
