Andrea Leadsom should be forced to apologise for her comment on male carers.
The Minister for the Environment should be forced to come before the house and apologise to both the house and men across the UK for her statement that hiring men to look after your children was more of a risk as the persons hired "could be paedophiles".
http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/andrea-leadsom_uk_5788a201e4b08078d6e8699c?9zveu3di has the quote:
“As an employer we’re not, let’s face it, most of us don’t employ men as nannies, most of us don’t,” she told the paper. “Now you can call that sexist, I call that cautious and very sensible when you look at the stats. Your odds are stacked against you if you employ a man. We know paedophiles are attracted to working with children. I’m sorry but they’re the facts.”
