Or tons on a medical house that some patients among the seventeen of women in germany winning the rights to vote speaking in berlin she paid tribute to the people who fought for Womens Suffrage. So you know nothing of on phone at the turn of the century women around the world began fighting for their rights. They formed at and gave each of the mutual support most ardent we should say that it was hard exhausting but ultimately a successful struggle comes on the twelfth of november today one hundred years ago women in germany were also finally allowed to take part in politics. It was a key moment in the history of democracy. Despite Chancellor Merkel being germanys first female leader the countrys political scene is still dominated by men. Got a catalyst reports now on makes progress since german women first took to the ballot box. Here in germany we have im going to America So Gender Equality is happening in our countrys politics right now ask people how they see things and compare that interest to reality. Can you guess how many may as out of ten in germany a male and female and if you could maybe. Put your and so on to the board. Four out of ten a female and six out of ten a mile its a twenty eight man line to all female youre actually wrong actually its nine men and one woman own thats a lot of even. In the bonus act there are Four Hundred And One Thousand men and only two Hundred Nineteen Women thats sixty nine point one percent two point nine percent less than a thought of all parliamentarians women thats the smallest proportion of women the bonus track has seen in twenty years because there are more male parliamentarians they have a higher percentage of speeches and courts and even an Actress Cabinet Men make up the majority photos like this made headlines recently these are the Coalition Negotiations after reaching new elections and bev area and he is the Leadership Team in the Interior Ministry find the female. So why are there so few women in politics this is a question Gender Politics experts assume vital for has been researching. This topic of compatibility plays a major role balancing the burdens of Family Public service and politics selfconfidence is also an issue its not always easy getting ahead in this male dominated world at the local level only one in four politicians is female when i teach in a city council and the berlin district of the only woman in an office with four men. As ive already experienced in different places personally and also with others that women are looked at more critically especially political candidates people always ask questions like can she manage that party the s. P. D. Already has a few teacher wants that for all parties. Around at the situation in german politics after considering current developments i have come to the conclusion that we will only be able to achieve Gender Balance if we institute binding Regulation Ice in germany women have been allowed to vote for one hundred years but Gender Equality in politics doesnt and that as long as those in government continue to be mostly men germany is the fall off the mark when it comes to Gender Equality. Chief Political Editor of. The chancellors speech at welcome michela so what does the Chancellor Merkel see as her role in bringing more women into politics well she said you cant really be described as being a feminist in chief despite being the for some thirty nine years now but what she did say is that you take some credit for the fact that if a girl today says she wants to become a minister what. That she will no longer be laughed at here and many in fact she said that sometimes the question does occur whether a man can become tonsil as well she says she didnt make that question up that is true yet her own c. D. U. Party still has one of the lowest percentages of m. P. s in the Current Parliament of around twenty percent and she admitted that still was a long way to go and speaking to the chance of speaking to other lawmakers will make his why do they think this imbalance is so great for this many issues but most of them are structural women i spoke to m. P. s from all parties i spoke to of the past week said that it was basically in the end up to posses to create conditions that attract women and that means long night sessions making it more Family Friendly because there is still a long way to go for those individual battles that couples fight back at home on who takes charge of what but also that parties need to create conditions where women can probably bring children or what simply fits into family life how much has this been the general political radar here in germany has this been and issue. Well the whole struggle has been an issue it was very much noted that this Current Parliament has a lower percentage its just its almost thirty one percent of women compared to some thirty six percent the last time around so really its a question and that has highlighted the fact that the right to vote and to be elected that germany is celebrating today one hundred years of that is a continuing struggle and by no means a Linear Development in the sense of more women taking part quite the contrary one of the parties themselves a bit of a Doing Everything to the have quotas or. Well the green party was the first part to introduce essentially a fifty Fifty Quote Every Second Person on the party list has to be female that is something the Social Democrats are talking about now as well we heard the Justice Minister who is theres a democrat speak about that as a potential measure because there is evidence here that unless there is a quota you dont really see Much Movement and that certainly is something that the chance of herself is against within her own party much evidence. To go over here because the thank you.

D. P. The commission gave rome until tuesday to present a new Budget Office disciplinary steps these are the government has so far insisted that any concession would be trade voters amount to political suicide well little earlier we spoke to german economies during stock thats the European Central banks former Chief Economist and we asked him what was likely to happen next. At a certain point in time there will be a Show Del The Question is whether the Italian Government will hit the wall with the commission or other european institutions over the markets i personally expect that the you with situations will stand firm not a given at this stage at least second that Rating Downgrades will follow and credit spreads will widen further so in the end the Italian Government would have no choice than to soften its stance to soften its position and to police to an extent to avoid the escalation of the financial crisis and that chance if its only going bankrupt.
