Slipping

The World Economic Forum has released its annual Global Gender Gap Index , and the news is again bad. After years of steady progress under Labour, our score first stagnated, and has now actually dropped slightly. The reason? National's sexist candidate selection practices, which saw the number of women in Parliament actually decrease last election.

This is what happens when get government of, by, and for rich white males: everyone else gets shafted to pay for the greed of the over-privileged.
