Labour (Co-op) — Manchester Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 November 2024

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

What an important topic, which is very close to my heart as a woman STEM graduate. It is shocking that so many years after I graduated—well, maybe only a few—we still face such a disparity in the number of women and girls, and the number of men, studying STEM subjects and pursuing the careers that come thereafter. My hon. Friend might want to raise these important matters with the Science Secretary in questions next week.
