1. Om vi vill att vårt politiska system ska vara i kontakt med allas prioriteringar måste vi agera för att öka kvinnors representation. 2. Att skapa fler kvinnliga parlamentsledamöter skulle uppmuntra till fler debatter om socialpolitiken, och på så sätt göra mer för att skapa en konstruktiv lagstiftning som är relevant för verkliga människors liv. 3. Även om det är möjligt för män att tala om kvinnors frågor, några ämnen i debatten - LRB- t.ex. i familjefrågor eller jämställdhet på arbetsplatsen -RRB- ses fortfarande som mindre viktigt än ekonomi eller utrikespolitik . 4. Detta sågs tidigare som en "mjuk" fråga ovärdig parlamentarisk uppmärksamhet; hon var mer i kontakt med kvinnors -LRB- och, naturligtvis, många mäns -RRB-prioriteringar och agerade på dem. 5. Till exempel, Harriet Harman är den första parlamentsledamot som allvarligt konfronterar luckorna i behandlingen av kvinnor och andra minoriteter på arbetsplatsen .
