Global crusade against sexism? Sign me up!

Harriet Harman has spoken of her ambitions to sit alongside Hillary Clinton and Angela Merkel in a global crusade against sexism.

Labour's deputy leader wants to establish a group of high-ranking women, including the U.S. Secretary of State and the German Chancellor, who would meet regularly to fight for equality.

Her announcement, in a speech to EU leaders, also appeared to be an attempt to burnish her credentials as a future Labour leader.

Miss Harman, the minister for women, said: 'There is, as yet, no international architecture which serves effectively to bring together women leaders who are working for progress along the same lines in each of our own countries. We need to look at how this could be done.'

She made clear she sees herself as a pioneer to rank alongside Mrs Clinton and Mrs Merkel.

Excellent. There needs to be an organization of strong women in government who can address equality on a global level. I'm with you Jen. If they need some back-up, I'm there.

Me too, I'm thinking we need to take over Obama's Council of Women and Girls!
Might even consider a National Women's Party for this country.
