[Brian Sheehan @BrianSheeh]

@gavreilly @fionnansheahan Impressive! And quick too

[Women for Election @women4election]

New Govt failed second test on gender equality by not increasing no. of women Ministers of State.

Serious questions for Govt to answer on rationale of continuing to exclude women’s voices,expertise & lived experience from Govt decision-making levels.

[Flor MacCarthy🇺🇦🇵🇸 @florNEWS]

So Ireland joins Samoa, Indonesia & DRC in the club of countries where only 20% of Cabinet members are women (https://t.co/qtOW2UIxza). Meanwhile, our neighbours in Finland, Belgium, Portugal, Norway, Iceland, Netherlands & Spain, all have gender balanced Cabinets (at least 50%).

[Women for Election @women4election]

Our response to the shocking decision by this Government to reduce the number of women in the Cabinet

How long will Ireland have to wait for women to have an equal say in the governing of Ireland? When will we resolve our ‘unfinished democracy'

[Women for Election @women4election]

Great to hear the issue of gender balance in Cabinet raised on @morningireland today with @CarrollJennifer

Can you put the question to Party Leaders and to men from Government Parties also? Gender balance is not just a woman's issue.
