Woohoo a woman!

The Labour leadership candidates have been announced and to Harriet Harman's delight, a woman is standing for election.

Seriously, you vote for someone based on their credentials, not their genitals. It's great that Labour are spending so much time and effort in ensuring a woman gets on the ballot paper rather than dealing with the real structural issues they face.

There's the 6 people of whom one will be sitting on the other side of the despatch box (for a very long time) after September. In fact, not one of these 6 will become the Prime Minister so the race in itself is merely a formality.

I wish the Labour candidates all the best, it can't be worse than Harman!
