The Cabinet reshuffle has got many people talking about the two new 'working mums' who are joining the Cabinet: Nicky Morgan and Liz Truss.
While it is good to hear that the Cabinet now includes a couple more mums among its numbers, we couldn't help but wonder: where are the working dads in Government?
They certainly exist - there are currently 23 dads in the Cabinet - but you'd be hard pushed to identify them all, as the fact they are 'working dads' is rarely alluded to in the press.
On the other hand, the phrase 'working mum' seems to keep slipping into copy before the names of the newly appointed Education secretary Nicky Morgan and Environment secretary Liz Truss.
This sexism does a disservice to dads by suggesting that being a parent is of less importance to them than it is to their female colleagues.
