Do women candidates help the far right? Not in Britain, finds @turnbulldugarte.com in #EJPG. In 2024, Reform UK's women candidates won no more votes than men, and the gender gap in Reform support was, if anything, wider where it ran a woman.

Far right parties strategically increase the (descriptive) representation of women assuming it helps them win votes in general and, in particular, from women. Does it work?
In this short descriptive piece, I show the answer in the case of Reform UK is a clear ‘no’

"Opposition to gender equality has often been associated with far-right politics (...), overlooking the involvement of mainstream parties in reactionary gender politics."
This is so true and makes this excellent article by @romainbiesemans.bsky.social & Archibald Gustin so important.
