Default Labour use a Pink Van to attract women

[Staunch feminist Harriet Harman was accused of patronising females after unveiling her “16-seater woman mobile”.

It will take campaigners on a “Woman to Woman” tour — targeting some of the nine million females who did not vote last time.

But left-wing commentator Kevin Maguire tweeted of the vehicle, dubbed the Barbie bus:
“PINK? I’d have expected Harriet Harman to demand a blue election battlebus to fight gender stereotypes.”]

Typical of her

we could stereotype all day... but seriously if they wanted to attract more women it would be a nice flat matt teal with Clarke and Clarke Curtains

If they wanted to attract women to vote for Labour using a van, they should have thrown some shoes out of the window instead

Storm in a teacup and most people were saying it was eyecatching.

Had they used blue, it would have been criticised as that is the Conservatives colour, in fact any colour would have been criticised by 'opponents' and non supporters.

I would question the reason for doing this at all but in the end if it did some good and got people talking, that's fine by me.

Are they going after the Gay vote...? perhaps the Lesbian vote, how many of them don't normally vote in General Elections.
