From today’s News of the World:
TORY women officials reject pretty female applicants who ask to become MPs — in case they steal their husbands.
And male chiefs block them because they fear they will use party funds to buy designer dresses.
Tories confessed when quizzed by pollsters Ipsos-MORI. Their report said: “Female party officials don’t particularly want women, especially if they’re attractive. They don’t want their husband spending large amounts of time with them.”
Male Tories said they feared candidates would do a Sarah Palin — the US vice-presidential hopeful who blew thousands on a makeover…
The poll also revealed doubts over David Cameron’s leadership. Members say he hasn’t set out detailed policies and the country doesn’t know where he’s heading.

Perhaps Lib Dems should target pretty females, then, because Conservatives obviously discriminate them. And why not target pretty males, too.
Whereas we hoover up all the pretty people and shag them silly and don’t mind because we are, after all, Liberals?
