The Theories of the Female Voters

The results are in! Grazia magazine have just released the results of their women and politics survey...with some interesting findings.

Apparently, according to the findings our ideal PM would be a modern thinker, trustworthy, aged between 42-45 and if we had to vote for a celebrity George Clooney or Helen Mirren would be the favourites!

Also the most common features of female politicians are intelligent, dowdy and in need of a make over and 79% thought that no female politicians were stylish.

Luckily for us though, the most important reason for voting for a candidate is their policies and ideals as well as being trustworthy and social conscious. Reasons for not voting include allegations of sleaze, supporting George Dubya and being a heavy drinker...so we’re not all shallow then!!

My favourite statistic though is that 73% of Grazia readers think that things would improve if there were more female MPs...here here.

So, if DC, El Gordo and Cleggy are listening, stop telling us about your love life, celebrity friends and do something about our yobbish nation...oh and if you do this and look like George "Swooney" Clooney that would be great thanks!
