I think I'd prefer women being head of countries rather than Putin, or Trump. But Teresa May not yet convinced by- some people are chuffed to be in a position without being the excellence of the position. She made a good speech recently, but it's a question who actually writes that.

Well, it was bloody obvious what he meant. But the slightest inconsistency or ambiguity, and people will be all over it like a rash.
In the summer Jeremy promised that one of either the Leader or Deputy Leader of the party would be a woman. He has of course no power to replace Tom Watson and thus the only way he could fulfil his promise was to either resign or gender-reassign.

Personally I choose to believe he wasn't lying this time

I remember when she was Shadow Education Secretary in the late 90's, she was slating Labour bigtime for tuition fees and then when asked on Question Time what the Tories would do instead she said "Well we're looking at it" and came out with a real nonsense follow up as to why she didn't have an alternative. I was never impressed with her from them on and wasn't before that either.

She berated Labour at the last PMQ's for not having alternatives to their criticisms but she done exactly the same thing in that instance and look at what the Tories/Libs done on tuition fees anyway. They scored the points moaning about them but then chose to tripple them when they got into power!

Wow ... sheep alert!

I am a woman and I do not support May. It has nothing to do with her being a man or a woman, more because she seems a nasty piece of work who is also incompetent. She has been given a very important task - negotiate Brexit - but seems to be unable to steer the ship in any sort of competent way. She reads out scripts and looks stern, but it's all a front. Luckily for her, the MSM is almost 100% behind her.
What do you mean ' sheep alert!' ?

I'm merely stating I support her for her position rather than the fact she's a woman.
