Nothing ironic to see here - move along

Dear Dave and Harriet,

Re. quotas for women in candidate lists, boards of directors, etc., I wonder whether you have fully taken into account the important views of women members of the university of Oxford:

'A union member told student paper Cherwell: "It is disappointing to see female members of committee campaigning on the back of gender at all...  

"The suggestion that anyone should be voted in on such a basis is deeply offensive to both male and female voters and is also very damaging to the perception of the women associated with the Union.'

Regards,
