A poll suggests more women would vote Tory than Labour at the next election. So has the coalition succeeded in being the 'most family-friendly government ever'?
Have the Tories finally managed to identify what women want? Latest polling (pdf) has found that 43% of female voters say they will vote for the Conservatives at the next election, compared with the 37% who put their trust in Labour.
Twice as many women than men have yet to make up their mind how to vote, which still leaves a lot for the parties to play for. But it's an amazing turnaround for the Conservatives who, just a few months ago, were so anxious about their poor polling among women that they designed a secret charm offensive aimed at winning back female voters.
Women's votes are increasingly seen as crucial for the next election. So it's interesting to hear your views on why the coalition's promise to be the "most family-friendly government ever" is now, apparently, being given credence?
