That doesn't seem to be 70% to me. And where they could have put up women candidates in general seats to help redress this they've only put up men.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027012696648038180.post-5036196731262189252009-04-14T17:34:00.000+01:002009-04-14T17:34:00.000+01:00Well I wasadvised by those close to me not to name...Well I wasadvised by those close to me not to name anyone but I am still considering whether I should do it or not.

Thanks for the ...Dear Anon on the 13th April 16.23<br /><br />Thanks for the comment. My entry was about organisations and large employers hiring or appointing women in senior positions. The survey was about that and not about positions contested by elections?<br /><br />I supported one of the 3 male candidates for the position of Genral Secretary the last time. They were the 3 most credible candidates but had there been a woman candidate with proven experience I would have given that my careful consideration (as would others)<br /><br />Does your intervention suggest that you would be voting just for the women candidates at the forthcoming NEC elections? If yes then that is good.<br /><br />But for all its worth I hope that a credible woman candidate is persuaded to stand at the next GS election. Linda Perks could be one?employmentlawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06932882194358982550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027012696648038180.post-48017170155273634022009-04-13T16:23:00.000+01:002009-04-13T16:23:00.000+01:00That's pretty ripe coming from someone who has onl...That's pretty ripe coming from someone who has only ever supported a male candidate for the job of General Secretary! Maybe the "United Left" will put up a woman next time or will they simply fall in behind the pale, male, stale (and failed) previous hard left candidates of Rogers or Bannister?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1027012696648038180.post-31242563371597817202009-04-11T16:04:00.000+01:002009-04-11T16:04:00.000+01:00Lets hope we soon have a woman in the top spot at ...Lets hope we soon have a woman in the top spot at UNISON as well - our general, deputy and assistant secretaries are all men - being as we have a membership of 70% women this doesn't seem right!marshajanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07925339364332357164noreply@blogger.com
