We’re living in much more hostile times, that actually it is much harder for women to operate in a much more combative political environment than existed, for example, when I was first elected.
The latest GERS stats show that total and devolved revenues grew faster than spending – showing in particular that in the areas where our Government has control, we are delivering sustainable finances.
Things have changed and I think ultimately that is probably to the detriment of women and minorities.
