Female-Only Shortlists for MPs in England

from the inequality/double-standards dept.
Inequality Vic writes "This is one of several articles in British Newspapers today that announce Labour's plans to introduce female-only shortlists in choosing MPs to feature in British Parliament as a means of "positive discrimination" against men to bump up the numbers of women in parliament. Is there any such thing as "positive discrimination"? - I'd like to know what others think, and would it lead to less able MPs standing in parliament? Is this cynical Blairite vote-catching in the same way Labour has a Minister for Women but not for men?"
