Harriet Harman: The gift that keeps on giving

New Labour deputy leader Harriet Harman:
I don’t agree with all-male leaderships. Men cannot be left to run things on their own. I think it’s a thoroughly bad thing to have a men-only leadership.
This level of naked bigotry is breathtaking and it's telling that Mrs Harman hasn't been told by Mr Gordon Brown to hand in her cards immediately. I also suspect that if she were given the option of an all-female leadership, she'd sing a different tune about "progress" and "equality"–neither of which she'd recognise if she fell over them.

If she ever does manage to take Mr Brown's place, then New Labour will end up with fewer MPs than the Forward to Mars party.

Go, Harriet!

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
