Klappentext
Secretaries, wives and lovers. Journalists, researchers, canteen staff and cleaners - there have always been more women than men at Westminster. Only one group - the MPs themselves - has always been overwhelmingly male. But in May 1997, with the election of the Labour government, the women came out from behind the scenes and took over the famous green benches for themselves. Ordinary women, sitting alongside veterans like Mowlam and Short. In Westminster Women Linda McDougall investigates the lives and work of more than ninety women MPs and celebrates their arrival at the House.
