‘Boys’ club’ still a power in Parliament, female politicians say
A veteran female politician and a first-time candidate have united to call for more representation for women in Parliament.
Lucille Seymour, a former member of the then Legislative Assembly, and a founder member of the People’s Progressive Party, and Gueva Richards, a first-time candidate in this year’s general election for the Cayman Islands National Party, agreed that more needed to be done to ensure higher representation in women in politics.
Seymour, 80, said women needed greater opportunities to hone their leadership, debating skills and problem solving, through civic or sporting organisations.
She added that the introduction of an appointed upper chamber, similar to Bermuda’s Senate, could be used to promote women and emerging leaders, where they could gain political and leadership experience, and build political profiles.
