Remember when you should change everything when you are in power? | Gaby Hinsliff

nIcola Sturgeon is always afraid of failure. But this was a very special failure she was worried about. Follow very special success. She wrote in her new memoir:Almost obsessed”, which is arguably unhealthy but not unreasonable. Being the first woman in any field (or indeed the first minority) is uncomfortable realizing that it is being probated: skeptics will use skepticism to determine test cases where women can generally crack it, but other women will judge whether the representative is different.

You will never betray anything that looks like a sign of weakness, but at the same time you are constantly under pressure to tilt your guts to radiate all the intimacy – miscarriage and menopause In the Stirge case, Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand, also a pregnancy in the senior position, is also an author. Recent Memoirs – To avoid other women feeling that you either stick to useful information, which makes it all look very simple or without doing some taboos. (Even Sturgeon, in an interview with middle-aged women this week Podcast sessionsSurprisingly, when she figured out how to deal with her menopause symptoms, she couldn’t find information about how other senior politicians cope.

Representatives can also be a blessing and a curse, even for a gifted politician like Sturgeon. But will this eventually distract?

Her book completes three recent memoirs, as well as those of Ardern and Germany Angela Merkelit feels like the last stop at the end of an era, and at the end of an era that puts a woman in power is expected to change everything in some way. All three are romantically considered an example of a kinder, more emotional politics at their peak: Merkel opens his arms to Syrian refugees; Ardern in a unified way Lead her country through the direct and potential division of the Christchurch terrorist massacre; Sturgeon is the feminism of the remaining voters of Boris Johnson’s Ryder Brexit Yang (Yang).

When the Queen is on the water for the British left, all three sometimes come into play, wondering why they can’t have such a leader. During the 2015 TV election debate, Sturgeon participated in the contest, and the audience searched loudly for Google searches for whether it was possible to vote in the southern border. Merkel The order is imminent Sitting in Trump’s seat at the G7 summit? – in parts of the UK and ArdernZero Alliance Strategy“Seal the border, at least until the latter is overwhelmed by the new variant.

However, as Sturgeon himself admitted to Shift’s Sam Baker, all three of them are becoming more and more polarized. The nature of the tribe in charge may have changed, but the politically angry tribalism has not changed: so much for the Barbieworld fantasy patronized, if women experience the world, peace and love will rule the day.

However, in hindsight, the three that these three pioneer female leaders really represent are the desire to break the mold, but they have not disappeared. If anything, the impatientness and frustration of building mainstream politics among young women suggests that this is intensifying.

Scottish journalist Alex Massie The British tendency to worship St. Fish from afar, written this week, was lost in patience with the Scots despite the close failure of the government. As a British journalist, I have to admit this. From a distance, it’s easy to hang on the performance of the leader, she does excel and forgets the feeling of being dominated by someone every day. During the pandemic, I remember envying Scotland’s way of locking restrictions considers the need for children to play, but more broadly, when Johnson is still joking about squeeze and drunken parties, when Johnson is still joking, it seems that the thought and seriousness of Sturgeon’s decision is being committed.

However, the mortality rate in Scotland Significantly better More than in England, for reasons of exploring the enquiry. Meanwhile, in New Zealand, Ardern failed to hit her widely Child poverty targetreminding people that personal values do not necessarily outweigh the reality of the post-stock economy.

The obvious morality from all this is that it is to place women on a pedestal simply because their women are not meaningful, and not to stand out for the same reason: in mature democracy, they will be simply judged to the results. Since Kemi Badenoch’s increasingly unstable leadership over the Conservative Party’s increasingly interesting thing is her gender, maybe there’s not much hope that we’ll move in this direction: the joy of being the third or fourth or fifth woman through the door is that people just stop caring for it in the end. But if so, it would be St. Fish, Alder Benefactor and Merkel, all the flaws paved the way.
