    The increase in the amount of female commentators, on the likes of Newsnight, Today Programme, etc, is very noticable. Just goes to show how lazy they were before, in not thinking about who they invite onto their shows.

    No worries. It's a good job we have fact checkers on here. Interesting news nonetheless.

    Why on earth is the BBC, and other media/press giving so much coverage and wasting so much money on the Tory leadership contest when none of us have a say*. Even when it gets down to two only 160,000 ish Tory members have a vote.
    I've nothing against the process just the circus around it.

    *I stand to be corrected if any forumite does have a say!

    I agree, except I think the final two is useful. One of them will be future PM for a while at least.

    But the C4 and BBC ones so far have been rather useless. They are looking to convince their own MPs at the moment.
