The PLN had an insightful discussion surrounding the patriarchy in the political sphere. In recent years we have seen discussion of sexism in politics, and the so-called “boys club” that runs parliament; where allegations of the sexual harassment of women abound. At this event we discussed all things patriarchy-in-politics, from the narratives that commonly follow female politicians, to the structural barriers that prevent many women from entering politics in the first place. We were joined by Katrina Lee-Koo, Anjalee De Silva, JaneMaree Maher and Yasmin Poole.
