Where have all the female councillors gone?

In a statement made to the BBC, the leader of the Birmingham Conservative group, Councillor Robert Alden, said: “While all parties have seen a reduction in the number of female councillors this year – due in part to the rising levels of personal abuse in politics, the growing demands of the role, and the nature of this year’s results – we remain fully committed to attracting the very best candidates regardless of background, ethnicity or sex.”
