How Did Your MP Vote on the Gender Rule?

For a second time running, the National Assembly failed to raise the threshold required to pass the 2/3 Gender principle even though it is a Constitutional bill. The amendment dubbed "Duale Bill" was tabled on 5th May. The Bill has divided the National Assembly into two with some Parliamentarians being decisive while others being fence sitters. On the voting day a half of Parliamentarians boycotted the session, three of them women.

How did your MP vote? To find out see the list: Gender Bill vote 2. Please call, text or email your MP to inform them how you would like them to vote next time. Remember to commend those who voted yes
