    What route, exactly, has DC decided on Keith? No all women shortlists, no all ethnic shortlists, even the 'A' List has been abandoned because as it turned out it was not really needed though initially it did give a boost to some. All Conservative candidates have been selected on merit and not by positive discrimination.

    What DC has done is work to get more women and ethnics as approved candidates and has succeeded in doing that and as a result we have a lot more of these in winnable seats, a lot more. All selected on merit.

    The biggest obstacle in the Conservative Party for women candidates is, and always has been, the Conservative ladies on the selection panels themselves and not the men.
