This is random but I wonder if Dawn Butler's position will remain. As far as I know, (Shadow/) Minister for Women or whatever is usually tied in with another (Shadow/) Ministerial role. It smells of tokenism that she was given the sole title, after resigning from the token role of Shadow Minister for Diverse Communities, which as far as I know doesn't even have a real counterpart.

Honestly I don't even care that the roles didn't have a singular counterpart, I'm all for having some to stand up for women and minorities from across the benches. But giving it to Butler and not someone stronger makes it feel disingenuous.

Theresa May never stood a chance, once woman but no backbone and was easily persuaded into things , Andrea Ledsom would have been a stronger leader although I'm not a fan

I think she learned in the first half of 2019 that it was a horrible mistake to take the job on. The wolves came for her.

Rebecca Long-Bailey seemed a lot more worthy candidate imo. But the 'sis white privileged rich male' prevails, naturally. Good ol' Labour!

Why are we suddenly racially profiling people and judging them by their gender?

Because the hard left do it all the time, so it's kinda ironic that their 'worst enemy' (sis white male) is now their new leader. But then Labour is a joke and has been for many years now.

Starmer was the favourite to win by a mile, it's not like people weren't given a choice

It's just a sad reality that white male privilege means there are a much larger number of white men in positions of power. It's not really ironic... It's built into every aspect of society.
