Johnson’s casual misogyny has kept women out of the election campaign
Zoe Williams
Rather more to do with people despising Jo Swinson perhaps?
Further – there were four major parties in this election, Tory, Labour, LibDem, SNP. Two of which were led by women. This is hardly keeping women out now, is it?

“A record number of women elected to Parliament” according to the BBC.
I'll admit that sort of whine by Zoe Williams would make me think twice about voting for a woman.
OK. So, we lost the election. Are there ANY figures we can put out to claim that we really won it?
Hmm.... adding up Cons and Brexit voters makes a lower figure than adding up all the rest - so that's one thing we can claim.... and how about something about women or minorities...?
I'm already seeing the usual Remainiac rabble claiming the Conservatives got the support of less than a third of the electorate, therefore they have no mandate. I expect to see a challenge by Jolyon Maugham being funded by Gina Miller in front of Brenda Hale next week. After all, the result can only be attributed to the evil Rooskies!
Of course it was the Rooskies! FusionGPS and Steele say they hijacked the election.
Anti-(sic)Fascist rioters in Whitehall tonight. Perhaps Macron will lend his new buddy Boris some of the CRS to sort them out.
The same "casual misogny" of the Tories that put May in charge of their party just recently?
Indeed, and has most of them desperate for another Maggie.
