Yesterday Harriet Harman warned that companies with men-only boards will fail to win government contracts if they fail to appoint more women.
Is there any limit to the sheer stupidity of this woman?
Call me old-fashioned but if I had to make an appointment to the board of directors, I would tend to choose the best candidate for the job, and I could not care less if this person is a man or a woman (or a South African athlete).
If Harriet ‘chip on her shoulder’ Harman is really so desperate to get more women on companies’ boards, maybe she should try and offer some form of tax incentive to those companies that appoint a female director, rather than threatening an embargo on said companies.
Long live Gordon Brown if this lefty feminist is the best candidate that Labour can offer to the nation in case of a leadership challenge.
