Harriet Harman was patronising in her NI remarks
We find this very patronising given that the Labour Party, in which she has played a leadership role, refuses to give women in NI the right to vote for Labour Party candidates.
We welcome the fact Labour women MPs in Westminster are going to interfere more actively in support of women here. However women in NI, for all the progress made, are still disenfranchised electorally by the Labour Party.
