SO the Labour hierarchy has decreed that the candidates for the vacated position in York can only be women. What next, selection on ethnicity, sexual or religious persuasion?
In these days of equal opportunity this should be illegal – and if not why not?
But there again we are getting used to politicians ignoring the concerns of the electorate. Labour seems to have an inexhaustible supply of nails for the party coffin.
