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 Fundu lík karlmanns í Reynisfjalli Innlent Frambjóðandi Trump lýsti sér sem „svörtum nasista“ á klámsíðu Erlent Sýknaður af ákæru um manndráp af gáleysi á Akureyri Innlent Kona á níræðisaldri sá björninn í þriggja metra fjarlægð Innlent Ákærður fyrir að stinga lækni í kvöldgöngu Innlent Fjórir í bílnum en enginn við stýrið Innlent Áhyggjuefni að innri landamærin séu ekki betur tryggð Innlent „Kerfið er algjörlega að bregðast fólkinu“ Innlent Rafrettukóngur og eigandi Drekans sakaðir um 740 milljóna brot Innlent Nafn mannsins sem lést í vinnuslysi í Árborg Innlent
