The Leftist-Green Party issued a statement yesterday saying that the new Independence Party-Progressive coalition in Reykjavík city council is "the worst for Reykjavík," saying that the party is sorely neglectful of equal rights between genders in particular.

Dagur B. Eggertsson, city councilman for the Social Democrats, concurred with the statement, saying that in eight committees the new city council majority coalition has organised, "Two are led exclusively by men, four have just one woman, and two have three women," adding that the Equal Rights Committee of Reykjavík has directed city council to ensure equality between the sexes in all areas of city employment. - pfn News News in English Mest lesið Hafi verið látinn fljúga þrátt fyrir þekkt andleg veikindi Innlent Réðust á tvo menn á göngu Innlent Vissu ekki að þeir væru að ræna Kim Kardashian Erlent Bogi les sinn síðasta fréttatíma á morgun Innlent Telur að Selenskí geti samþykkt að gefa eftir Krímskaga Erlent Rúmur helmingur óhress með Trump Erlent Hljóðheimur sumarsins í hættu: Mikil fækkun lóu og spóa Innlent „Ég vildi óska að fólk gæti séð drenginn minn eins og hann er“ Innlent Kjördagur framundan í Kanada Erlent Sixtínsku kapellunni lokað vegna páfakjörs Erlent
