KATY Gallagher has blogged her disappointment in a new survey showing sexism is keeping young women from entering politics.
“It is disheartening today to see the results of a new survey of girls and women that shows only 1% of girls aspire to a career in public office,” Katy wrote.
“While the results are unfortunately not surprising in a general sense – the extent to which respondents identify sexism as a factor in a political career really is depressing. These results are yet another stark reminder that we all have to do more to encourage young girls and women to open their eyes to the great opportunities that a life in politics can present.”
