Expert Commentators

Has anyone else noticed all these expert commentators popping up - to have their say on the 'gender impact' of the planned cuts in public spending?

'Women will be affected disproportionately' - they say - some from the safe haven of their well paid jobs in academia - and elsewhere.

But the obvious question is: What have all these experts been doing for the past 10 years?

Because the gender impact of paying bonuses - to only traditional male jobs - far outweighs the impact of any spending cuts.

For the past 10 years Scottish councils have been routinely paying male workers - up to 50% more than female workers - for every hour worked.

The women have been doing equivalent jobs - or jobs with much greater responsibility than the men in many cases.

Yet the expert commentators have had nothing to say.
