Rt.Hon Ruth Cadbury MP<br />

Brentford and Isleworth (UK)<br />

Women supporting women, we are about 99 labour women and we<br />

look at each other and support each other. We don't run each other<br />

down. We don't always agree with each other but whatever we do,<br />

we support each other. We are positive and as my mother taught us<br />

to say,” if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all” and<br />

I did say the same to my kids. If you think somebody is capable tell<br />

her and mentor her. Mentoring and mutual support are the two<br />

great things that are important. If we go and change the world for<br />

the better for women and for their families, than we need more<br />

women in parliament and we need more women in local authorities<br />

and assembly. So, that's why we want more women in politics to<br />

make life better for women.<br />

Ms. Ajungla Jamir<br />

First Secretary Co-ordinate,<br />

High Commission of India, London<br />

I have never come across international male day or men day.<br />

Celebrating international women’s day in such a large scale, we<br />

should be really proud of, that is what I personally feel. We say<br />

behind every man, there is a successful woman, on the other hand<br />

I always have to think that we as women, for all of us here we have<br />

a father behind who encourage us, who pushes us to where we are<br />

and where we have come today. Regarding entrepreneurship, I<br />

was told by Mr. Jacob Ravibalan and I was thinking about that,<br />

even realized, our mothers at home, even today to take care of the<br />

home, to take care of the husbands and to take care of the<br />

children everything that has to be managed at home that itself a<br />

very huge task.<br />
